IF today we catch a fish from the nearby pond and give it to a needy person,we would feed him for one time(AID) but if we tell him how to catch this fish(TRADE) then we are feeding him for the whole life.I mean friends we need trade not aid at all.If today we hanker after developed countries for aid somehow in the coming future we would be dominated by them but if we make them our trade partner it will be a good sign for a developing country like India.

China is shining like anything not because it was aided by any country but because it aids even the developed countries by its trade.Friends history is made by the brave person who used to live without any hope of any type of aid,they choosed a self dependent life and in the present scenerio a developing country should be self dependent and it can be possible only by developing a good trade.

According to me, we as a developing country needs trade instead of aid. By getting aid from other developed countries, we will become lazy in process of development and will not be able to become self-dependent. Though we can become self-dependent as we possess the talent in our country that is needed for this purpose.

We should take help from other countries that's developed countries only at limited extent not always.

Increasing our share in trade will definitely help us in improving our financial status, in increasing our national income and in order to make us a developed country from a developing one.

THANK YOU.

Of Course TRADE is always better than AID.

It gives the nation the opportunity to enhance their POTENTIAL, their INTELLECT, their THINKING and helps the nation to become SELF-DEPENDENT.

On the other hand, though AID provides shelter, food and clothing but in the end, it gives you a very demoralize mental effect on the society. It stops the mental growing of the brain. Its just as a beggar begging for money, and people are helping them.

My Friends,

Trade is better because that makes a country realize and explore its own potential, it gives the country a sort of Independence which every country seeks. Aid is not a cure to a problem, its an instant short term solution, but in the long run it won't prove to be any help.

Trade also brings a developing country and a developed country closer, it abridges the gap between them, which thereby results in an healthy and peaceful relation.

Trade also contributes to economic development, and other countries learn to value you.

Thus, Trade is a long term solution, which has proven and will keep on proving to be the correct path for any Developing country to earn self-esteem and recognition, and peace among countries as well.

Thank you.

Definitely trade is better than aid as the aids given in form of funds are not utilized properly for development and large sum of money goes inside the pocket of ministers. But with the trade any developing country can be benifited in two ways one it will get money for growth and development and secondly it will abridge the gap between a developing country and developed country.

Trade is opportunity for growth. Liberates economy. It Earns on Assets, and will make developers self sufficient and pave way to explore their potential. Aid is an instant remedy. Not cure.

Developing countries always need trade compare to aid to become a developed country. Only trade can enhance the economic growth of the country and it also develops a better understanding between the nation. Aid is a short term desire while trade is the long term desire.

Hi friends,

I think that Developing countries need trade not Aid. When the developing countries use trade then, they are making their growth self dependantly. Taking Aid from develpoed countries means taking short cut to became the develpoed country. Always shout cut is not the apropriate way. Because of that we became dependant on other country countries. That make the country growth Lazy.

It is obvious that developing country need trade without trade the development of the country would be at very slow rate. As we take the example of all developed countries like USA and other developed countries. Which have a trade relation with other countries up to a great extent. Here in India we have many brands of these countries like apple, blackberry etc. As comparison to it we are less no.of brands of our country here in these developed countries. And by having trade with other countries the quality of the product will improve due to great competition to be faced. On the other side if we are offering aid to any country we are making it helpless.
