What problems tend to be typical of all third world nations?
Poverty and corruption are the main problems, I think. I would also add lack of human rights, power abusing, low level of education. Here’a an interesting point of view on ways of solving global problems http://planetaryproject.com/planet_project/philosophy/ , it’s a whole philosophy, I’d say.
Hep, sounds like quite the problem you got there, pal. I often face such problems and am never sure what to do or where to go. There are a few places I visit that are more than handy like navigosamui.com holds the answers for many questions that I have. I was actually recommended this place by many people online and friends in real life.
