Should richer countries help poorer countries improve health, education and trade. Improvements in health, education and trade are essential for the development of poorer nations. However, the governments of richer nations should take more responsibility for helping the poorer nations in such areas. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion. ………………….. To my knowledge, most government officials are probably casting about for the answer to the question as to how to help poor countries' development. No doubt, it is so big an issue which can prompt different opinions, and in fact, there is one suggestion that governments of richer countries should take more important part in helping the poorer ones improve the areas such as health, education and trade, for such these areas are of great importance to a nation’s development. By the large, the view above can be justified and the advocates of such a view can offer its tremendous benefits. On top of everything, the poorer countries which receive supports in the areas above from the richer ones can develop in more effective fashion, and this helps the citizens of the former who resign themselves to poverty can have better living environment. Moreover, the relationship of these nations will, for definite, be strengthened and there is no denying the role of international cooperation in worldwide sustainable development. However, the skeptics of this view can give some arguments and some of them are compelling as well. In particular, it is true that richer nations are supposed to spend a great deal of money helping the poorer ones, or to put it another way, the former may have a possible lack of money to develop their country. Besides, the poor countries will be able to only depend on the richer ones’ supports, or to be more precise, this policy may cause the former to fail to try themselves to get out of poverty. All in all, it is clear that there are both positives and negatives resulting from this policy, and this makes it rather difficult to determine which side is more convincing. But I personally think the help from richer nations is of the essence in order to help poor nations eliminate poverty.
