Third World Countries - By Milton Laene Araujo

Once upon a time, there were two ideologies to be followed. Capitalism or Socialism. Capitalism gives opportunity to self marketing. Socialism gives opportunity to equality. Although, Socialism sounds good, it is impossible to obtain completely. The same thing happens with capitalism. No nation can be one or another, and it was discovered in 1989 when the Socialists countries broke apart.

It was noticed then that a few countries did not follow any of these two choices. These countries coincidentally, had their economy working badly, and for not being part of either one or two choices, they were called Third World Countries. These countries, such India, and Egypt are old countries, and it explains that age has no part in their development.

Any poor country - Which of, is referred as Third World Country, by most of the people, however, differentiated by scholars, are countries that were mixed up with communism and capitalism and did not option to either causes vehemently. They remained neutral, and for so doing, they simply did mot favor either one, and were left behind economically.

What make a First World Country is not its age, nor the ideology it follows. It is:

  • Working Ethics
  • Integrity of the person
  • Responsibility
  • Respect to the laws
  • Respect to the other human being
  • Love for your work
  • Desire to overcome obstacles
  • Punctuality
Unfortunately, many countries that are old - such as India and Egypt, have not seen these 8 factors described above. Most third world countries can't see this. It is has nothing to do with size. Observe that Japan is surrounded by islands and mountains, and yet, it is an ambulant factory, and today is the second world economy. It has nothing to do with age. Australia, Canada and New Zealand were unknown 200 hundred years ago, yet, they are developed today.

In summary, the Third World Countries will remain behind if they do not create laws that are able to incorporate all 8 listed factors.

Third world country must change their attitude!

This is how it ends.
