SOUNDBITE: (English) Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft: "Malaria is getting worse, there is three interventions, all of which we need to put more resources into - bed nets would make a fantastic difference, which is what they announced today, is a big thing. Better medicines are coming along, to use drugs that there is not a resistance to and funding and research. And finally eventually there will be a vaccine, we can't give a time table for that. The UK has talked about its commitment to help fund, purchase that vaccine, and we had some very good results this year on a vaccine trial which shows that we are making progress toward creating that." 7. Media 8. SOUNDBITE: (English) Bono (Paul Hewson), singer in rock band U2: "At the moment, we hear that they are slipping back on their commitment, it would have been 5 (b) billion dollars this year, and we hear that the number is going to be lower. That would be really disappointing, and I think that the president should be very proud of stepping up to that challenge and I think it would be a fantastic model for others to follow. It think that the US should stand by those two initiatives and go further, not retreat under this crushing budget deficit because in terms of value for money which is what American people want, they won't find better value for money than these monies." 9.

Meeting presenter 12. SOUNDBITE: (English) Tony Blair, UK Prime Minister: "We'd said already that we needed that we believe that we need at least to double the aid, debt relief, trade, governance, dealing with the main killer diseases. I think those are the issues that really come out of it, and as I say, it's not that you're going to be inventing entirely new things in each one of those areas, it's that we need to bring it together in a comprehensive plan and then have a mechanism for following it through. That is going to be our aim." 13. Wide of stage 14. SOUNDBITE: (English) Thabo Mbeki, President of South Africa: "The priorities we have set ourselves as Africans are obviously, we have to address the matter of peace and stability on the continent, very vigorously, very successfully, make sure that we end all of these conflicts because without that we don't have the development. And I think the continent is indeed very focused on this particular matter." 15.
