CLEAN WATER PROMISE: A Filipino girl drinks water from an artesian well in Manila as another child watches. President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo said on Wednesday more than 160,000 families in the capital did not have access to clean water. Arroyo, who is seeking a new six-year term in the May 10 elections, has promised to provide clean water to the 12 million residents of Manila.
