Shanghai Electric wins 125 units of 2MW wind turbine deal from India

No low-income fragile or conflict-affected country around the world has yet achieved a single Millennium Development Goal (MDG), the World Bank said Sunday.
Some 1.5 billion people live in countries affected by organized violence, either currently or recovering from political violence, fragility and high levels of homicide, according to the "World Development Report 2011".
Coping with the economic, political and security challenges that undermine development and trap fragile states in cycles of violence requires bolstering national institutions and improving governance to value job creation, citizen security and justice, said the Washington-based agency.
"Children living in fragile states are twice as likely to be under-nourished and three times as likely to be out of school. And the effects of violence in one area can spread to neighboring states and to other parts of the world, hurting development prospects of others and impeding economic prospects for entire regions," said World Bank Group President Robert Zoellick.
