Support of the EU / National Institutions to the OLPC initiative or olpc community

1. from OLPC Nepal "School Sector Reform Plan (SSRP) Phase 2 - NEPAL: The total budget for this project is approximately €1.26 billion to be jointly funded by the European Union (EU), Asian Development Bank (ADB), AusAID, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Unicef, World Bank, Global Partnership for Education (GPE), and the government of Nepal." I'm happy to read the European Union (EU), Denmark, Finland and Norway found about a billion so all kids in NEPAL could have an XO. I'm not quite sure how the EU PIIGS - Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, Spain parents with school going kids welcome this news. Doesn't it make a valid claim to maybe get at least an olpc lab in every of their provinces? --SvenAERTS 23:26, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
