That big companies are after their interests and that there're
consequences to a country's environment and development is evident.
But, I would like to hear from you how this reflects in the case of Eritrea.
For example, you said:
[del for brevity]
>So it is in the villages...they aren't in leader's minds much to start
>with. When a Big Business comes in with LOTS of money, what else is there?
Is your contention that the villages are not in the "leader's minds" in
Eritrea because "big Business" comes in with lots of money?
I just want to grasp the gist of your ideas in the case of Eritrea.
Eritrea, like any other nation, will be facing the brunt of development,
whether oil-mediated or tourism-driven. But, what mitigating or remedial
(and proactive) policies and action were taken and are n the making is
something that we should bring into the picture when we discuss our concern.
