Dr. Demarche Writes to the G8 Reps

Dr. Demarche over at the Daily Demarche has written a letter to the G-8 reps. In it he calls for the kind of help the nations of Africa really needs:

The first step will be the hardest- the establishment of rule of law and the basic infrastructure of a stable, self-perpetuating economy. Micro loans, trade partnerships and co-ops allow local populations to have some say in their own economic recovery.

It doesn't go as far as Hernando De Soto's suggestions, but I guess it is a start. Read the whole letter here.
