Germany, Japan, and several other rich countries are also doing much less than they should - and much less than they promised the poor countries that they would do. In 2002, all donor countries committed to "make concrete efforts" to reach 0.7% of national income in development aid to poor countries.
德国、日本和其余的发达国家也同样做得不够，远不如他们曾对贫穷国家承诺过的那么好。在2002年，所有的捐助国都承诺要通过"实质性努力"拿出国家收入的0.7%去帮助贫穷国家发展。但是，德国、日本和美国，和其他发达国家，做的比起他们承诺的差得太远。
