<< Jabou,
This is a start since questions are raised as to the morality of the debt
owed by the third world countries. And whether the cancellation should have
any conditions attached to it or shall i say strings attached to it. I hope
this will be another way of
addressing the extreme poverty and mismagement in the Thirdworld and Africa
in particular.

l agree ndey, but l am not very optimistic that the leaders in these
countries will actually direct these funds towards the effort to alleviate
poverty in their respective nations, much less show evidence of this.Poor
people will never see this money since in most cases, it has laready been
squandered on things that have no relevance to them at all, and these
same governments are at this very instance clamouring to borrow even more
money to spend on mostly themselves and their corrupt collaborators.
