USAID clarifies

As the Country Representative for Center for Communications Program of Johns Hopkins University, I am pleased that The Jakarta Post published yesterday's article on family planning.

However, we need to make one crucial correction, USAID is not increasing assistance to the Indonesia family planning program in 2006. Rather, USAID is integrating family planning into their overall maternal health assistance program.
