            The above has been provided as a sample of the type of projects and the level of funding. Other multi-
            lateral and bi-lateral organisations were also funding programs around the world. It shows that the number
            of systems installed through World Bank group projects has grown from 120,000 in the 1990s to over 2.5
            million between 2001 and 2010. The value of the projects increased from $100 million in the 90s to $1.28
            billion in the 2001-2010 decade.
