Information and poverty

A stupid on Metropolis Opinion

We have been arriving in 21st century, as wee see; there are many people in our regions, neighbors still living in poverty. Those people can’t escaped and still turn to this conditions. There are two opinions why these phenomena still raise and still in near; first, natural condition and the second is structural condition. I put my opinion and focus on the second reason.

My lecture was said, poverty is caused by people have no accessed to information. He made a funny statement to us; why I brave and capable to teach you (student)? There is only one reason; because I know the information first. You have great natural talent; but if you don’t raise and development your brain cell with information, you are nothing. I know first because I read the information first, right! So I dare to teach you.

Most people (experts) said; poverty can be handled with information. If you have more access to information; education, you have more opportunity to labor force, you have more opportunity to get good job. Good job will give you more money.

I think you can read my opinion in the end, More money means, you are out from poverty.

The question, then goes to government regulations, how to give more access to citizens. Rich countries have more money, more budget allocation to education sector (they also have more attention and do make their citizens smarter and have free access to all information.

Poor countries are in problems. The governments still focus in high growth on industry sector, so education and information becomes unhanded well.

Bill Gates has been here in my country Indonesia, He try to donor; aid and help our people to escape from poverty. He said, internet goes to home is best way to make better future from our kids. We hope our president and his staff will catch this changing seriously.

I received an email from our president (I don’t know the email accuracy, because every day Many spamming, device and indirect email). The email came from the president’s email; he told that I am invited to the palace to realize Bill Gates visiting, Information pushes poverty.
