Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2892628, member: 2221"] Unfortunately, resources and population don't determine wealth. It actually seems like it somehow works the opposite way, as the wealthiest countries/populations (except the Arabic Oil States) are in relatively poor resource locations, like Western Europe or Japan. On the other hand, you look at resource rich areas, like most of Africa, South Africa, South East Asia, and well... need I say more? PNG is unfortunately in that boat in my opinion, where culture and mentality stands in the way of utilising those resources anywhere near efficiently to the country's and population benefit. Some local hands will be greased, and some multinational corporation(s) will take the bulk of the profits. [/QUOTE]
