Many people think that countries have a moral obligation to help each
other, while others argue that the aid money is misspent by the
governments that receive it, so the international aid should not be given to
the poor countries in the world. Discuss the issue.
With the process of economic globalization, many countries and regions have
strengthened cooperation and liaison in the fields of industry, agriculture, trade,
and finance. In order to dedicate to the mutual development, many developed
countries spare no efforts to help the poor countries by means of technological,
medical, and financial aid, which, to my mind, is quite essential to the development
of the world.
Firstly, aid from developed countries optimizes people's living standard and
eradicates poverty in poor countries. Due to the backwardness of science and
technology, people in some developing countries and regions such as Africa, Latin
America, and Asia suffer a great deal from poverty, hunger, and the scarce of
water. International aid from developed countries has improved their living
environment and helped them with the development of agriculture, industry, and
economy.
Secondly, international aid gives good medical care and helps promote hygienic
condition in the poor countries. Malaria, cholera, and smallpox were once severe
threats to people's health. With the help of the World Health Organization and
some developed countries, these diseases have been eliminated and the residents in
the infected areas have survived these deadly diseases, which would have devoured
millions of lives without international aid.
Finally, aid to developing countries in turn benefits the donators. Due to the
limitation of natural and human resources, the production cost rises sharply in the
developed countries. With a view to reducing cost, many countries transferred their
assembly lines and production bases to the developing countries, which not only
solves the problem of low rate of employment in the developing countries but also
makes full use of the local resources.
Nevertheless, some countries are showing great concern about the mal-expense of
their aid aroused by bureaucracy and corruption of some governments. Therefore,
the governments should take effective measures to utilize international aids
reasonably and prevent abuse. Only with the help of international aid can our world
develop more quickly and prosperously.
