This looks to me like a band-aid solution for the real problem: lack of transportation infrastructure.
If these people had better transportation options they wouldn't have to walk hours to get water, go to school, etc. It would also result in faster transport of vaccines.
You can ship t-shirts and plastic chairs from western countries and make yousrelf feel good because you're "helping". But what about solving the real problems like infrastructure? The west invested in infrastructure in china. Now china is investing in africa.
- linuxkerneldev 8y ago> the west invested in infrastructure in china. Do you have any evidence that this is true? As far as I can tell, China invested in infrastructure in China. "West" just buys products. Your statement is equivalent to claiming that Apple invested in infrastructure in China when the reality is that Foxconn invested in infrastructure in China and Apple just buys the output.
