Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., says he's disappointed in the slow pace of a massive U.S. aid program for Pakistan.

Kerry, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, co-sponsored a bill to provide Pakistan with $7.5 billion over five years. Just $179 million of the first year's $1.5 billion has been spent.

The New York Times reported Monday progress in spending the funds has been slowed because of Washington's fears of Pakistani corruption and incompetence.

"I understand that Pakistanis may be frustrated by the slow pace of projects," Kerry said. "Moving this much money transparently through any bureaucracy is always a slow process but the administration must move faster to implement projects."
