More General Cell Phone From The Toilet

More and more people of India, the second most densely populated country in the world, have access to mobile phones as compared to the toilet, according to United Nations University (UNU), Wednesday, on how to reduce the people who earn less cleanliness.

"It's tragic to think that in India, the country is now rich enough that an average of half its citizens have a telephone, about half of them are not able to obtain basic needs and dignity of a toilet," said Zafar Adeel, Director of the Institute for Water, Environment and Health (IWEH) at the UNU, and leader of the UN-Water, a coordinating body for the work related to water in 27 UN agencies and their partners.



India has around 545 million mobile phones, enough to serve as many as 45 percent of the population, but only as much as 366 million people or 31 percent of residents in the South Asian countries that have access to improved sanitation in 2008.

The recommendation was published on Wednesday intended to accelerate the pace towards the achievement of Millennium Development Goal (MDG) of reducing the proportion of people without access to safe water and basic hygiene.

If the current global trend continues, the World Health Organization (WHO) and United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) predicts there will be one billion people lack sanitation than the target until the target date of 2015.

"Anyone who eschew such topics as disgusting, despised him so rude, or considered worthless people requiring should let someone else take over for the sake of 1.5 million children and countless other people and killed every year by contaminated water and healthy sanitation, "said Adeel.

Included in the nine recommendations were suggestions to adjust the MDG target of 2015 increased 50 percent to 100 percent coverage so 100 no later than 2025, and to re-establish official development assistance equal to 0.02 percent of gross domestic product to health care sector.

UNU report states amounted to 300 U.S. dollars used to build a toilet, including labor, materials and advice.

"But the world can expect the return of three dollars and 34 dollars for every dollar spent on sanitation, which is realized through the alleviation of the poor and health care costs and higher productivity - economic opportunity and the humanity of historical proportions," adds Adeel.
