Hi, I am working on CMAM (Community Based Managment of Acute Malnutrition)in the flood and war affected areas.

Telling my countrymen proudly that the ratio of malnourished Childrens and Women is going down very fast.And for that i would like to Thank UNICEF WFP and Minstry of Healh.

CMAM Projects boomed in KPK and are in middle stages.The ratio of cured patients are like 95 to 98 % in my working area.And i hope it will be the same in other areas too.Coz i saw in a review meeting from all the organization working on it.The cured percentage is more then 90 % for all in KPK.

And now UNICEF is presenting the CMAM programme of KPK to the world as a ROLE MODEL.

So Dont worry and be happy InshahALLAH Pakistan will be out of that ratings SOON. :pakistan:

I will show you guys a child Madeeha (before and after) !!

A strong message for Pakistan to heed. For a nation that is capable of a massive agricultural output this is disgraceful. The bulk of the huge fertile lands are in the hands of feudal lords. I think it is high time Pakistan addressed this.

The following could be done to address the issue for a developing nation.

1. Ensure a very efficient Public Distribution System (PDS) for Food Grains. (For Example in some states in India like Karnataka, Tamil Nadu the PDS is very good which ensures that the familes below BPL get rice for Rs. 2 per kg and wheat Rs. 5 per kg.)

2. Mid day Meal Scheme in Schools. (In all Primary schools in India, the child is fed a glass of milk, a banana or a boiled egg in the morning and some cooked food for meals like rice and lentils and vegetables)

3. A law should be made in the country which states the right of food for its citizens. That means by law every one in the country gets access to certain minimum calorie food irrespective of how much his/her income is. By constitution every citizen of a country gets a certain minimum calorie food.

Thank for your post and I find it interesting. The part in bold, how does he state government ensure the low price? Does the state have its own stock, that comes from a buffer stock system? Or are families given food tickets?

1. Govt. of India purchases wheat/rice etc. directly from the farmers so that they get good price and it prevents them from exploitation from traders etc.

2. This wheat/rice forms a big stock every year with millions of ton of wheat/rice depositary.

3. Govt. purchases at the rate of Rs. 10-11 per kg then Govt. sell it to the poor people at the rate of Rs. 2-4 per kg.

4. By doing this Govt. provides huge food subsidy of billions of dollars.

5. They do the same with petrol/diesel, fertilizer, electricity etc. where govt. provide the subsidy of billions of dollars to the people.

6. Govt of India provide about US $ 25 billions of subsidy to the people they can do it because they have money.
