  • Hey Chileanguy! I'm studying in Malaysia at the moment, I need some information from you. Pls do add me up at chuksdevine@yahoo.com, chuksdevine@hotmail or chuksdevine@gmail.com. Better stiil, you can email your facebook link. Look forward to hearing from you soon.

  • If you didn't have those opportunities, you are not qualified for good jobs, and end up making your living in the bottom of the income ladder. The sad truth is that those works add little value to the company's cash flow, so their only option is to work harder -instead of smarter.

    I know a couple of guys studying atomic physics in France. Both of them came from very poor families. We'll never know how many scientists or economists Chile is losing each year, due to this educational system.

  • The (shameful) truth about Chile is that the country is actually made of 2 countries sharing the same territory: the public/"poors" and the private/"rich ones". If you have (like me) the good luck of having a good education, you're entitles to better jobs, or start businesses with added value, which in turn let you make more money. In a summary, you see a great . nice country which is progressing.

  • - As far as I know, Pinochet's policies brought a great deal of inequity to Chile, bringing almost half of the population below the poverty line (correct me if I'm wrong). Do you think the center-to-left governments that took place after Pinochet did a good job reducing it?

    - What about the basic education in Chile? Is is true that most of the system is privatized and most students go to school by educational vouchers? If it is, what do you think about this system?

    Chees!

  • Hi Chileanguy!

    I'm a 'Brazilianguy' myself and I'm very interested in the economical history of Latin America!

    Thanks for your video!

    There are a few things I'd like to ask you, if you don't mind...

    - Every educational system has its problems, but Chile still has one of the best educational indicators of Latin America (very high literacy rate, years of schooling and so on...) according to the UN. What do you think about that? (cont.)
