Funds to provide employment in Afghanistan

An article about the efforts of the US as that are poppy free to reward them. Their effectiveness in reducing opium growing all depends on whether or not the funds will actnd UK to provide Afghans with jobs by lending them money: the goal is to reduce unemployment and drag people away form the Taliban.

There are also funds that will be given to provinces that become poppy free to reward them.
Their effectiveness will depend on whether or not they will actually be disbursed, if they will be distributed fairly as opposed to swallowed up by corrupt officials, and if they will be used in projects that make sense.
