Analysis:
Based on
the article one of the main concerns expressed was that Africa’s poverty is
upheld by the growth they are experiencing being in areas that are rather affluent.
The areas that are rather desperate for the exponential growth are not experiencing
it and it is resulting in their ultimate doom. These countries need to be made
priority and for lack of better words cradled like a baby. Africa’s state is
very fragile and the recovery of it is even more fragile. One economist said
that the growth taking place in Africa is surrounding certain areas rich in
oil, copper and iron. It is excluding agriculture and investment areas.
Response:
As a proposition
to further improve Africa is to give out cash distributions like Tanzania and
Ethiopia. This will allow areas where resources are exploited to regain social pensions.
This can help mothers in need for help with their children. Africa is also encouraged
to engage more in exporting to help bring in more of an income to the country. Manufacturing
and agriculture are in the decline in Africa so if they were to increase the
production of those two assets then they could possibly see better days. Manufacturing
items would definitely bring in more resources to the country due to exporting
goods and trade. This would allow for Africa for the first time possibly to
become a real asset in the trading world. The demand that the items they could
produce could also increase the amount of money they’re bringing in and helping
out their home people.
