blog #8 Nation's struggle for independence from Indonesia
This article was about how the president has
a big impact on the nations well being. It talked about how over half of Asia
nation is poor. The main problem in Asia was with the poor struggling with
malnutrition. The purpose of electing a good president is supposed to help
focus more on the poor and help get the malnutrition issues uncontrolled. In
the articles it said that “East Timor's 1.2 million
people live below $0.88 a day, according to a World Bank report, and
malnourishment is a significant public health issue.” It also stated in the article that “East Timor is Asia's poorest nation but it has vast offshore
natural gas reserves and is struggling to unlock this wealth”. This lets you
know that the president was not focused on the poor and how bad the poor were
doing. In the article it stated the government used fun to build the economy
but it need to fund more money to include the poor people. I
think that electing a president that is going to benefit the wealth and poor is
going to be a good choice. This way it will not take so long for someone to
attend to the poor side of the Asia nation. I think that the government should
look more into problem of people health before they look into adding on to
things that are already taken care of. What I mean by this is they shouldn’t focus
on fixing what is not broken. I believe that malnutrition is a terrible thing
going on with over half of Asia population and should be taken care of immediately,
so if electing a president that will make sure this is looked into is all they
need to do then they need to do so quickly. I believe that they should use a
lot of fundraising worldwide to help.
