good job bill!!!

MICROSOFT co-founder Bill Gates travelled by boat on Wednesday to a remote village in eastern India to check on the progress of a government campaign to eradicate polio that the billionaire is helping to fund.

Mr Gates, whose Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has committed nearly US$1 billion (S$1.38 billion) to health and development projects in India, met with health workers and discussed the strategy to fight polio with immunisation drives and an effective surveillance programme that identifies cases early.
