I actually mentioned something similar in a passing thought today on my own blog... it is a much more effective way of spending aid money on building infrastructure and helping to create jobs rather than just sending container loads of bottled water and food over. Sure there will be times when the container loads of bottled water and food is needed and we have to be ready to send those, but long term this is the stuff that NZAid should be into. Hopefully the Foreign Minister or whoever looks after the aid budget has seen this program. That is a brilliant scheme that should be copied around the world.
