JAPAN TO PROVIDE $3 MILLION FOR AFGHAN POLICE
The Japanese Foreign Ministry announced on 10 April that it will provide grants totaling 361 million yen (approximately $3 million) to assist in creating an effective police force in Afghanistan, as well as to help fund demining efforts in the country, Kyodo News Service reported on 10 April. These grants make up a portion of the $500 million promised to Afghanistan by Japan in January 2002. Diplomatic notes regarding the grants were reportedly exchanged between Afghan Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah and Japan's acting Ambassador to Afghanistan Nobutaka Miyahara. KM
