Global interest from poor/corrupt countries

[AmoreJaz]

It is the responsibility of these countries to change their conditions. There's no need to expect other countries, especially developed ones, to help them eradicate poverty and corruption, because those other countries only hope for the worst so they can exploit their resources. So what these countries need are structural reforms and leaders with revolutionary thinking, the best who can build and develop their countries for the better, as well as support from the people to advance their nation and country.

Corruption is the major reason for most countries why they are still in the third world category. A lot are rich in natural resources and yet, they couldn't advance or progress. There are so many small countries like Singapore or Qatar  that are very limited with their resources and yet they exemplify advancement in terms of their economy. It means, it depends on their government how they will manage their resources as well as their people. As I have watched, most poor countries have their corrupt officials also. So I guess, it depends on their officials who are managing their country. Every resource that a country may have, can be explored to their advantage. And if they have the mentality to uplift its people, they actually can as there are other financial resources they can get from other countries or world organization in today's setting.

If every country wants to improve from its current situation, it is possible, but for that they need competent and honest leaders. In the case of countries that do not have corruption, it is not very difficult to improve. But in the present time, it is seen that in some countries, the net of corruption has spread so much that it is very difficult to get out of it. Although some good leaders come to power and really want to change the country, they do not get that opportunity. Because the corrupt people already control those whom they can control and stay in power. As a result, no one can improve those countries even if they want to. Keeping corruption is a planned act, which is why it is not possible to get out of it.

...world leaders are not making any effort to endorse genuine leaders...

You mean clowns?

The real problem is that in the 21st century, people still believe in politicians and so-called leaders. Deep down, we all know they are not here to serve us... they are placed to keep us in the dark while the elite enjoy their $500 million yachts. These so-called leaders are nothing more than clowns posing for the cameras and talking shit... but once they are in their fancy offices, they make sure the system stays exactly the way it is... a system that works perfectly for the elites.

By the way, I am not sure if anyone knows about the referendum in Switzerland back in 2020... Long story short, and I guess you can draw your own conclusions:

“Responsible Business Initiative” (Konzernverantwortungsinitiative)

People were voting on whether Swiss companies should be legally responsible for human rights and environmental standards abroad, not just within Switzerland.

-If it had passed: Swiss companies would have been directly liable in Swiss courts for violations caused by their subsidiaries or suppliers abroad.

-What actually happened: A majority of voters (50.7%) supported it, but it failed because the majority of the cantons voted against it. So it didn’t become law.

Sometimes I imagine why countries are poor and corrupt for a very long time, and you can see that the people in nations like this are so tired of the corruption and bad governance in their country, but they can't change anything even with all the effort they have put in over a long time. These countries can be called poor nations because of the high rate of poverty among the population, but looking at the resources and revenue found in these countries, you would see that the country is not really poor but chooses to keep its citizens poor. There are some leaders who are ready to bring good change to these countries, but they lack the power to overthrow the corrupt government that is in power, and world leaders are not making any effort to endorse genuine leaders who can make a positive difference in poor countries. It seems that most of the developed countries are benefiting from these poor and corrupt nations, and if poor and corrupt countries change and have better governments, developed countries won't benefit from them anymore.

As I grow, I realize that many things make sense, even this one. People want a better life but they don't want to do a thing that is required to achieve a better life. Their government is corrupt because they grew up in such an environment, which means that their whole society is corrupt and it's how they grow up. They need to completely reshape their country. Someone smart has to come into governance who is willing to sacrifice himself and wage a war against corrupts, pretty much what Bukele did in El Salvador. It will take decades to transform from a poor and corrupt country into a rich and democratic country.

There are no perfect government in the world because there always be weaknesses points for every nations and about the poor and corruption indeed in the develop countries corruption is massive this could be a major problem from those countries although the government is fully attempts to eradicate corruption and fight against them but seems their works is useless because the number of corruption is still high

Some of economy expert has been predict if the number of corruption is still massive don't ever to expect the people from those countries can exit from the poverty and in my country who can categorize as develop country the corruption almost impossible to dissapear although my government is really working hard for that but seems the officials are always looking for ways to eat citizen money

It is absolutely true that corrupt governments and government officials are responsible for the poverty of a country. They launder billions of dollars and build wealth in developed countries. As long as a country has a corrupt government, no matter how much tax is collected and how much foreign exchange is earned, there will be no benefit. a corrupt country can never develop.The government of that country does not want the people of the country to live a better life. They do not care about the people and only show some big projects to blind the eyes of the people.

My country is not poor but it is not rich either. The situation here is like, if you have some wealth and even a small business like a Cafe, you can live well because salaries are very low and profit margins are high in every local business. It's very easy to open a supermarket and hire a girl who will work for $300 a month while being a cashier, consultant and cleaner at the same time. You might ask, how does this work? Why do people work like this? The majority of people have an immigrant in their family who earns well in a foreign country and sends some money back to their families, so girls work for cheap because they do not want to spend their whole time at home.

There are many reasons why poor countries stay poor and corrupt. People say they want to change but they don't really want to change, instead, they prefer to emigrate in rich countries where everything is ready for a good life. There is also a hopelessness that ruins everything.

There are many factors that make a country poor, and most people blame corrupt governments as the main cause of poverty in their country. But in my opinion, this is the root of poverty in poor countries.

Look how superpowers like the US and EU got rich? Didn't they get rich by invading colonies, exploiting mineral resources or inciting wars and selling weapons...? And to do that, there is no better way than to make that country backward by interfering in politics and creating a puppet, ignorant and corrupt government.

Africa is considered one of the most mineral-rich regions in the world, possessing large reserves of rare and valuable minerals. But why are they the poorest continent, and who has occupied and exploited those minerals for hundreds of years? Think about it.

You're absolutely right, many countries around the world are deliberately impoverished by superpowers, and it's very difficult to escape their grip. Indirectly, superpowers exert control over legal and governmental systems, politics and economics. Poor countries are often treated as consumer states, with special needs for the superpower, and often under pressure from debt. This isn't unique to African countries, many countries in Asia and Latin America face the same problem.
