Failed aid examples in the Pamir abounds, but this is one of the most stricking: A Medical Unit Bus bus brought, with special authorisation, from the Tajikistan side in summer 2007 (an Afghan-Pakistan project) to provide medical help. After a month, the ?doctor? left back to Tajikistan. Since then, the bus is rotting away beside the Khan's camp..Inside there is expired medicine thrown all over the floor...Trekking through the high altitude plateau of the Little Pamir mountains, where the Afghan Kyrgyz community live all year, on the borders of China, Tajikistan and Pakistan.
