HAI INDIAN YOUTH! YOU CAN HELP POOR COUNTRIES AND HELP YOURSELVES!
Somalia
I would like to suggest academically qualified and broad minded Indian youth to the below given proposal. A list of the poorest countries in the world are given below.
Barundi
South Sudan
Somalia
Central African Republic
Democratic Republic of Congo
Mozambique.
Basic data in brief of the top three are given here.
Barundi
90% of the 12 million population of this Sub-Saharan African country are in a pathetic state and that make Barundi the poorest country in the world. Average earning of the majority of the people is USD 1.25 only. Food scarcity is in the worst state. Water is not accessible to most of the people. Only 5 per cent of the total population have reach to electricity. This country had a Hitu-Tulsi ethnic conflict out of a civil war for a long time.
South Sudan
South Sudan has taken birth as a new country on 9 July 2011 after a long civil war that took the lives of over 4 lakhs people. As of 2021, South Sudan with 82.3% poverty index is the second poorest country in the world. Population of this country is 1.12 crores (2020). Geographical area is 619,746 km². South Sudan has the lowest literacy rate of the world. Only 27% adult population can read and write. GDP per capita of this country is USD 302.8 (2018)
Somalia
Frequent draught and flood, severe food insecurity, displacement of people etc made life of 16 million of this African country pitiable. Ongoing armed conflicts, severe humanitarian crisis and lack of strong government make matter worse. 37.8 per cent is average literacy rate of Somalia. Literacy rate of women is much lower. The number of pirates of that country are going up sharply. More people are entering into piracy as a profession.
The above given informations must be enough to know about the plight of the people of the poorest countries of the world. There must be many countries, organisations and people with adequate resources willing to help these countries. Unfortunately none of them are prepared to take this task voluntarily. Under this circumstances Indian youth must be the most competent to pool these resources and take the leadership to restructure these countries now and more tomorrow. Large amount of wealth shall certainly be available if you can honestly make strong efforts to rejuvenate these countries. You can also help yourselves with the outcome of your strenuous organisational skill. All these countries have their own natural resources including wide scope for modern agriculture. Many industries can be brought up their. You may be able to market your products in our own country. Think about and act fast. Bring together any number of people.
(Indebted to the report of Luca Ventura of Global Finance dated 12 December 2021 for the above given list of 6 countries.)
