Why is that it takes £11 million, entrepreneurs, rock star donors, Government aid and then long-winded "reports' to tell us what we already know... These poor people need the skills and support to improve their lives, not "contractors" and billions in "aid". Corruption is at the heart of most aid.
So why all this when we already know the "...but teach a man to fish..." example?
A lot of people making a lot of money out of all this.

My eldest brother worked ' abroad ' for years and I remember him saying, it's no good sending these people farm machinery without sending the people to teach them how to use it and maintain it, don't remember where he was talking about, but the same kind of thing applies today. Why is school furniture broken and not repaired and solar not working anymore, because they done have the skills and they need to be taught. They've probably all got two left hands like someone we know.

You could be talking about the UK as well Jan. I often see gutters overflowing causing damage that will cost thousands to repair. Windows that won't close again causing thousands to repair later. No one has hear of 'A stitch in time'.

No one has hear of 'A stitch in time'. Ray. Agreed Ray. I had to emphasize to our tenant that anything was not working or looking shabby to let us know so that I can get it sorted out. Initially she thought I was just saying that but when I noticed some scrapes on the paintwork on a six monthly check (only accidental ones caused when she moved in) I came back and touched them in with fresh paint. I would much rather do that than end up with a bloody long list of jobs to do at some point. She keeps the place immaculately clean so with my little tweaks it still looks in mint condition. I would often take my tool kit with me when I visited my son (he now lives only a few miles away so I am hoping for an easier time) his house would have dripping taps or loose door handle/window catches etc. Given a couple of minutes and it was all sorted out...probably made a rod for my own back.
