THE GRIEVING OF THE 2ND LARGEST CONTINENT (EDITORIAL) BY: MERMERIZONE

NOTE: AFRICA IS KNOWN AS THE POOREST CONTINENT WITH CIVILIZATION. THEY ARE OUR MAIN EXPORTERS YET, THEY STILL SUFFER POVERTY?

Exporting goods for international trade contributes almost half of a country's necessities. With that fact stated, citizens can drink safe water, eat the right amount of food, sustain nationwide energy, structural openings of power plants, uplifting the economy and further most, people can solve poverty.

Africa is known for their rich resources, thus, international countries flock to the continent. Diamonds, cloth, ivory and food are so vast that the the continent consider it as their residue. With international countries raising their stock markets, major companies invest. Thus, new systems of businesses are fulfilled. The question is? Does the continent get its fair share?

Guinea is the largest exporter of bauxite. Bauxite is a mineral that is used to create aluminum. Aluminum can be found in cars, appliances and such.

But why are they still poor?

According to the continent's mainland government. A company  (international) only gives 1.2% of their earnings to Guinea and the rest is for them.

With this, not only they are losing money, but also their natural resources. 

The more companies invest, the possibility of Africa's fall will increase. Mortality rates top the charts. Food and water will become scarce. Medicinal corporations won't be able to provide cure, therefore epidemics increase not only affecting one country, but also the world. This can happen if the main exporters will cross the borders and carry viruses.

Without fair solutions, and with a wide array of uneducated people, Africa might lose their right to fight against this doing  and will not be able to sue companies that make such fuss.

It does not mean they are lazy, it means we, as the better-leveled people across their barriers, use our intellect to being hypocrites and not as good individuals.

It is not too late, to end this crime. We, as intellectual human beings, can use our own intelligence to make change for the better not the worse.
