Re: Somalia
The former government was a disgrace. It's easy to show improvement in statistics when, for example, only 4 people in 1,000 have a radio at the beginning of the period of improvement. In an earlier period when there was a central government, literacy was improved from 5% (in 1969) to 55% (in the mid-1980s), largely because of a government-implemented literacy campaign. A government can do good things and it can do bad things.
