They need to get rid of leftist NGOs and politicians who are like a 30 pound tick on a 15 pound dog.
How about more democracy?
What they need is money. Just getting all the money that’s been embezzled reaching Africa would be a great start.
Cement ... if a country can’t make it’s own cement it’s in bad shape. But then there has to be corporations with money to buy it and pay for it. But even before then, you need a well educated government who doesn’t embezzle money.
Rule of Law, Personal Liberty, Seperation of Powers, rtc.
Basically Western Civilization as developed by old White Guys.
You mean like the colonizing powers were bringing pre 1960 or so?
Aid pours into the pockets ofo tyrannical dictators like Mugabe. When their gone, they’re replaced by younger tyrants. It’s always been that way and always will be.
How about less socialism and more capitalism? Nah, that can’t possibly work. /s
Africa Wins Again. Africa always wins.
This in turn creates the tin-pot dictators or warlords that keep the people suppressed.
A country like Liberia, for example, should be a paradise. It is right on the Atlantic coast, it is a sun-kissed strip of land, and the potential is there to create a dynamic economy to rival that of Hong Kong.
Nah... let them figure it out on their own.
They did SO well, after all, in Rhodesia... I mean, LOOK how prosperous it is now...
How about simply less tribalism?
Regards,
Affica need new leaders. Until then, Affica cesspool.
Good government first and foremost. The only way Africa can succeed is to get some white colonial administrators back as they knew how to successfully run Africa. Since the whites were kicked out, it’s been nothing but corrupt, failed banana republics amassing wealth for the most elite corruptocrats.
What Africa needs is Jesus.
I read an article where the President of Sierra Leone was lamenting the lack of political leadership and knowledge. Including himself to some degree - but primarily in the various regions, where the leaders still are bribed by diamond miners, etc. (IIRC, the country is to get a fee back on the mined diamonds, but the diggers get around that by bribing the local officials.)
So as another poster said - following the rule of law is important, and is lost on a lot (most?) places in the world.
I would add this....the two immediate things that could be delivered and make a difference? Birth control, and solar generated electricity. Add onto this...a total absolute ban on weapon sales to any African country.
The whole of Africa needs to settle back on a lesser population.
They won’t, they have a priceless commodity to the Chinese, women and land.
The actual truth can not be spoken in a public forum due to political correctness. However, most normal people understand what that actual truth is.
