Causes Of Poverty In Bhutan

Imagine standing in a world where everywhere you look, people are starving. Not just a couple people, but this hunger can be seen throughout entire villages, it covers more than half a population of a country. This picture in your head can be seen as a accurate representation of the country Chad. One of the most upsetting things about the whole situation is that the problem is not going to be solved anytime soon.

Living a life in Honduras is dreadful because research has shown that in 2016, 66 percent of the population of Honduras lived in poverty according to official data. Honduras also has one of the highest murder rates in the world, and the homicide rate in 2016 was 59 per 100,000.

The numbers of the homicide rate in Honduras is ten times higher than global averages, and it is also 12 times higher than United States averages. One of the factors that breed crime is poverty because in Honduras there are limited jobs, as well as, inadequate wages, as a consequence, those workers don’t have enough money to buy food for the entire family. Therefore those people join crime organizations to be able to feed their family by taking from others. After researching various articles, I found out that the one who is responsible for all the chaos that is happening in Honduras is the government of Honduras.

From 1945 to 1954, the Vietnamese waged an anti-colonial war against France, which received financial support from the United States. The French defeat at the Dien Bien Phu was followed by a peace conference in Geneva. As a result of the conference, Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam received their independence from the French colonial efforts, and Vietnam was divided between an anti-Communist South and a Communist North. In 1956, South Vietnam, with American backing, refused to hold unification elections. By 1958, Communist-led forces, known as the Viet Cong, had begun to battle the South Vietnamese government.

When most people see these kinds of poverty – and there are many different levels and layers of poverty and deprivation throughout the world -- they think first about the glaring inequalities of income and wealth, both within and between countries.
