Hello friends,
Well 3rd world countries what they really need right now is a a continent with sound medical and engineering services, proper infrastructure, proper government (avoiding civil wars like somalia) for their citizens because only a safe and sound mind, calm and composed not solitary perhaps they need foreign support, but I will say let them solve their issues on their own. Interfering within might create groups of countries like china supporting Pakistan and bla bla so what I say is let them be on their own for a moment, make them realize what they lack and guide them properly with aids so that their can be a balance in world and no stomach sleeps in hunger. |

| According to me one thing is clear that increase in density of population leads to raise in poverty of that country. But there is still one more factor that leads to raise in poverty, i.e. unity among the people and their interest in improving the economical conditions of our country. |

Hello friends.
I am satisfied with this that Poverty in third world countries is due to Prosperity in First World Countries It has so many Examples and reasons also. In the case of India and Pakistan we can see that, those resources that should be spent for removal poverty were spent for Atomic weapons. One another example of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, we can see they are facing poverty as a gift from America. On other hand If we talk about reasons we can see talents of 3rd world also moves to 1st word by that best resources of these countries can not be used in these countries. It is also reality that developed countries also provide funds to developing countries for poverty removal but this too less. But at last I am optimistic that third world countries will fight against poverty and develop their ideas with this reality that developed countries don't want their development and for this they should enhance their education, decrease their defense budget and have prosperous relations with their neighbors. So it depends totally upon the third world countries.
Thank you. |

| Poverty comes due to populations. Suppose a parents has only one child and his monthly income is 10,000 Rs. Then he can live better ways but a parents has same monthly income but has 5 children then he can not live better ways. Their money is divided into 5 childrens and there will be always insuffiencies of money. So in our country main region of poverty is populations. |

| I think poverty is not due to prosperity in first world countries. Now a days a religious people think that poverty is a result of their fate so, they do not make any efforts to break this vicious circle of poverty. Any country which is developed or developing is due to their own efforts. But a poor people cannot make any effort. Secondly we can say that corruption is the main reason most of the political leader in India is corrupt. |

India belongs to third world. Around many years ago it used to be called as "Bird Of Gold". But then around 16th century, it started becoming victim of western countries which were poorer or average by that time. First they started making business and then they started interfering in the politics also which ultimately made India their slave for 200 years. In this time period they exploited India in every aspect mostly in materialism. When they left India, there was nothing to eat also for even a average person. So till certain extent we can blame them.
But it doesnt mean that they are the only culprits as we know that they have made lots of good differences to Indian society. After Independence we got 65 years to develop ourselves. But what did we do in these years. Did we make any remarkable change?Some people will say yes as now India is technically, financialy and economically growing. It does have increased its rate in education also. But then why still in third world!Answer is lack of good leadership, lack of responsible people, carelessness, Lack of awareness etc. People in India just think at the personal level not at the national level. Everybody is busy in making crores of money. E. G. They just want to clean their surroundings and throwing dirt at other people surroundings. Take the example of singapore. It is the world's smallest and very well developed country. It is surrounded by water from all sides. But still it cleared all the geographical barriers. Take the example of Japan. After Hiroshima and Nagasaki event, it was told by experts that leave human species, it is not possible even for an insect to survive over there. But today as we can see it is technologically and economically advanced country. Forget about 60-70 years, recently almost 1 year ago japan suffered from tsunami and nuclear reactor event. Still it didn't stop and instead of asking for help to other countries, it recovered itself.
There are lots of nations which has the stories of other nations which set an inspiration to us. Did we make any inspiration to other?
So it just depends on the mentality of people of that nation. How are they going to face challenge set in front of them? |

Hello everyone. I don't think that poverty in third country is because of prosperity in first country.
Because we cannot always blame others for our Faliure. This would simply mean that we are loosing our cool by looking at the rich or developed countries. Those first countries are prosperous because of their government policies in terms of globalisation, dmestic affairs & most important people of that citizen obey the mandatory rules for their upliftment. So we cannot always think he/she is responsible for my nil or poor results. |

| The disparity between the 1st world and the 3rd world countries are mainly because of the difference in Governance. The population density in third world is taken as a curse instead of mobilising the huge potential of this rare resource which are dreams in developed nations. Instead of providing infrastructure at the home, the Governments of 3rdworld beg or purchase comforts from richer ones making them further rich at the cost of the scarce resources they have. After all the 1st world have treaded to the height after much strugle. The people at the helm of affairs in the under developed states must pririties for their requirements of their nation and recognise the strength available in their self to advance inch by inch so that they really progress. All adversities, in whatever form has its own merits too. It is left to us whether to sit complacent carrying heartborn or to act first to win the race. In summing up let us not agree to the statement. |

| I accept it because most of the first class countries are trying to improve only their needs they don't make a look to other if they look what is the use means because their are placed first then they could progress other third class countries if this can be taken into a note there will won't be any third class prosperity. |

| I think government must play a big role in putting its country on top. After all the rights an duties lie wit them. They have the power to mould each sector, so power lies with them. It really makes no sense to blame the first world countries for the poverty prevailing in third world countries. So stop blaming and start acting. Govt should make amendments, stop corruption and other activities that brings us DOWN!. |

| I don't think so thonk so that this is a true statement because if a country has prosperity it means it has the ability to do something. If talk about poverty which is different thing because poverty is due to country imbalance in economic growth and in this poverty is emmense and we don't do anything. |

| I think that the statement was true to some extent.Because if we looked out in developed countries they are spending lots and lots of money lavishly for thier own enjoyment. while at other part people are struggling to meet thier basic needs.we must think why these difference arises?? Both are borned empty handded..but one is enjoying immense pleasure of life and other one is struggling all over the life.According to my point of view this is due to the person who is enjoying others resources.... |

To be candid and fair to a certain degree, it can be argued that poverty and misery so prevalent in the third world especially in Africa has contributed in part to the prosperity of the developed world especially the western world-dont forget the Pareto philosophy-for someone to be up, the other person must be down. Colonialism and the slave trade should not be soft-pedaled. They greatly hampered and are still haunting the full development of the African economies.
Lets not forget unfair trade practices and protectionism by western governments to their local farmers and tools of neo-colonialism like the world bank and IMF used to indirectly control african governments. However african leaders have also failed their own people woefully. Instead of building strong institutions and a vibrant private sector that creates wealth for the country, they concentrate their efforts on holding on to power at all costs.
That is why corruption; mismanagement of state funds, nepotism; and embezzlement all bedevil most african countries. The way forward is changing our mentality, building strong institutions and investing in education especially scientific research and technology. |

| I think that the problem faced by third world countries are made by their own political structure. So first the government should be take the initiative to make their country as a developed one. First they point on the education. Then only they can grown beyond the world. So first avoid the civil wars and the fruitless activities. |

| I don't think that first worlds have something to do with the poverty prevalence in third worlds. I mean, we see how people from third worlds study in institutions of the first worlds in order to acquire knowledge. But do you think that all of them goes back to help their countries? I don't think so. They just disappear like they don't even exist. SOME may have come back, but not ALL. They prefer living in developed countries because of practicality issues. I mean, who would ever like to live in underdeveloped countries? let's face it. First worlds have nothing to do with third worlds' poverty. |

| According to my opinion this statement is not true because any country that is developed is due to its own effort and devotion of their citizens towards their country and condition of any country depends on their resources, government. We can take ex. Of India in which corruption is at its zenith. |

Friends, LASKI once said that I didn't have right to eat cake if his neighbor went bed without having a piece of bread. This sows in somewhat we are related to all people who are in this world. Those who are in list of developed had somehow got from other country for example what is england is today it is because of colonialism in which they looted countries like India.
So in my opinion their prosperity in some how is related with d misery of poor countries. |
