Yes, those are all facts and true to our knowledge also. In all the third world countries are facing the same. The below poverty index is becoming much bigger havoc in the world. The developed countries are helping with donations, but they are taking other advantages with Govt., There is no sincerity to solve the problem. Exploitation is becoming a hobby for the money holders to earn more.
