Kofi Annan Millions Quotations

Millions still live poor and isolated lives. Millions more have found their lives disrupted, even destroyed, by global economic forces they do not understand and cannot control,

Millions of children and adults are becoming infected, falling ill and dying without the barest essentials in medical treatment, counseling or social support,

Millions of children and young people are already affected by the pandemic - including those infected through the most heart-reading from of transmission, mother to child,

It seems at times like a nightmare from which we are still hoping to awake, except that for millions of people in 12 affected countries, spanning two continents, and for tens of thousands of visitors from nations around the world, this nightmare is devastatingly real,

I came here to show support for all the millions of people in the world who stand to benefit if the Millennium Development Goals are reached, especially the children who will be saved from malaria or Aids, who will grow up healthy, go to school and have the chance to earn their living and enjoy life.
