I had a discussion with a friend who is very obsessed about globalisation and it's impacts on world economy that he outlined in detail how the western democracies are trailing barefoot behind most communist and socialist states.
His believe is,these forms of governments holds the blueprint for the mordern economy. That,they brought more competitiveness and maintain high productivity in their production lines at lesser cost relative to civilized societies.
He thinks some African leaders who had caught the vision are already levels above the others.And only less amount of time is required to prove this true.
I listened intently without interruption,even though his persuasive skill was not enough to give me comfort in the ideas he laid out.It all seem intelligible until I asked him just one question I had been brooding while he was busy talking:
"If this guys are that magical,why would most of it's citizens be willing to climb a 15 foot high wall and risk been shot to escape the countries with such political ideals"?
The silence that followed was made from heaven.....
