" Re: Response to Tendai Makanza Written by Guest on 2010-01-14 18:40:09
I share the sentiments of Tendai and the guest. What I have found is that the large developed countries are used as a measuring rod for development and response to any situation. However, my question is, who says that they are right or the way they respond is correct? We in the Caribbean, especially the smaller islands like Barbados have also been exposed to the same mind set in our policy makers. We have yet as a people, African and Caribbean to create our own definition and measurement of economic and social development. Unfortunately we remain guided by philosophies which are not completely our own and led by individuals who aspire to what they see and know now and not what they can create.Write Comment |
