Development, Politics, Economy, Values and Civilization -By Nneka Okumazie

There are always public projects in every country, their success and sustainability is often dependent on the character of the people. There is always crisis, internal or external as well as difficulties, but the character including the knowledge that the people have becomes a force for solution.

Knowledge in areas of necessity to have a leading edge in the world. Knowledge is one of the character constituents for development. Some people and countries rate themselves on things they can afford that to do well means to have those things, when it was knowledge that brought them about.

Some people also think that knowledge, individually, is along things like certifications, when those are still commonly available and obtainable, having advantages in restricted terms.

Character multiplies whatever a country has, but lack of character diminishes it. Sincerity, fairness, curiosity, advancement, exploration, experimentation, trust, etc. are important values in what makes any country developed.

Bad leaders are bad, but all leaders mostly often follow along what the people accept. Some ideologies come in from some leaderships, but eventually, leaders are often loyal to what is dominant, or preexisting even if it is small.

Development of a country happens the same way any individual builds a house. There could be different approaches but standard work must be done.

Most nations are not developed because of their lack of character or weak values. They may always find reasons, but the character for it, is just not there.
