A woman walks on a cracked
river bank along the Ganjiang River in Nanchang, East China's
Jiangxi Province December 3, 2007. Water level in the Ganjiang, a
tributary of China's largest River, the Yangtze, is at record low
due to insufficient rainfall. Severe drought in China had left 3.2
million people short of drinking water, according to figures
released by the Office of the State Flood Control and Drought
Relief Headquarters in November.
