Investing money in an individual in a country with a questionable government is not a wise idea.
It would truly be a micro-loan, say $200-2000 per family or individual. Enough for someone to open a shop, buy a pedicab, purchase a sewing machine, etc.. It would be wasted in some cases, but would still accomplish its goal if 50% started a business. $100 million could do the job. We waste more than that every day....
