When people say "they should not have borrowed in the forst place" they miss the point - 1. They did not borrow. It was often the undemocratic leaders that borrowed and they were often corrupt. They were only in place bewcause the west wanted them as puppets! They spent money on projects that the west wanted to push or for western built weapons! Then the poor of the country were left with the debt!

It is time to unite and end poverty! Wealth is in the soul, not a bank. Peace!

@606dan2580 I know u wrote that ages ago but still. if u rly think there happy having 2 live like that then u know nothing. We're learning about hunger and poverty in geography and some of the pics they showed us were so horible some ppl actuly had 2 leave. we also read what life is like there, writen by a person who lives there. it had No happyness in it at all. It waz actuly very depressing. I felt bad being able2 eat my lunch strate after the lesson.

And how much did that cost to make! They seem happy enough!

Mismanagement clearly does not account for all of the capital. Large amounts have been invested successfully and generated positive results. Writing off the debt will just encourage them to borrow more. Who is to say what they can and cant do.
