To reflect and... Act.
The difference between the poor countries and the rich ones is not the age
of the country.

This can be shown by countries like India & Egypt,
that are more than 2000 years old and are poor.

On the other hand, Canada, Australia & New Zealand, that
150 years ago were developing colonies, today are developed countries and are rich.

The difference between poor & rich countries does not reside in the
available natural resources, though to have an abundance of them is a blessing
which helps a country become developed.

Japan has a limited territory, is 80% mountainous, has inadequate landfor agriculture & cattle raising, but has
the second largest economy in the world. The country is like an immense
floating factory, importing raw material from the whole world and
exporting manufactured products to all parts of the world.

Another example of development without natural resources is Switzerland, which does not plant cocoa but produces the best chocolate of the world. In its little territory, they raise animals and plant the soil during 4 months of each year; however, they produce dairy products of the best quality. This small country generated an image of security, order & skilled labor, which made it one of the world’s banking centers.

Executives from rich countries who communicate with their
counterparts in poor countries show that there is no significant intellectual
difference.

Race or skin color are also not important: immigrants labeled lazy in their countries of origin are the productive power in rich
European countries.

What is the difference these countries?
![Page 11: Rich Country... Poor Country: A Reflection on Causation. Edited by Joe Naumann, UMSL From a PowerPoint presentation developed in India.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56649ed35503460f94be36b8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The difference is the attitude of the people, shaped through the years by their
culture and the system of education which that culture established and
encouraged.

On analyzing the behavior of the people in rich & developed countries, we find
that the great majority follow the following principles in their lives:
![Page 13: Rich Country... Poor Country: A Reflection on Causation. Edited by Joe Naumann, UMSL From a PowerPoint presentation developed in India.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56649ed35503460f94be36b8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Guided by a system of Ethics.2. Integrity.3. Responsibility.4. Respect for the laws & rules.5. Respect for the rights of other citizens.6. Industrious and productive.7. Positive attitude toward saving & investment.8. Optimism.9. Punctuality.

In poor countries, only a minority of the population follows these basic principles
in their daily life.
![Page 15: Rich Country... Poor Country: A Reflection on Causation. Edited by Joe Naumann, UMSL From a PowerPoint presentation developed in India.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56649ed35503460f94be36b8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Developing countries are not poor because they lack natural resources or because nature was cruel to us.
![Page 16: Rich Country... Poor Country: A Reflection on Causation. Edited by Joe Naumann, UMSL From a PowerPoint presentation developed in India.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56649ed35503460f94be36b8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
An important reason for them being poor is because their culture doen’t promote enough of those attitudes.
Culture change is usually a rather slow
process. So, it isn’t surprising that insufficient numbers of people haven’t
learned and don’t practice these functional principles which are found
in the rich & developed societies.
