ABCD on Economy > Human Development Index 767 days 17 hours 48 minutes 49 seconds ago To Answer Abbas question What makes Sri Lanka a better place to live compared to India?

First of all you are right in that There are a lot of human rights(HR) abuses in Sri Lanka and that lots of civilians/children were killed during the last stages of the war.

However you have to look at the overall picture. The HDI takes into account factors GDP per capita (PPP), life expectancy,literacy, years of education etc.. Despite the disastrous war standards of living in Sri Lanka are relatively higher compared to INDIA. Literacy in Sri Lanka stands at 90%(2011) much higher than India's literacy of 74%(2011). Life expectancy in SL is at 74.4 yr s(2011) much higher than the Indian life expectancy of 65.5(2011).GDP per capita is relatively higher is SL than it is in India.

Second of all what about HR abuses in India. They aren't exactly the beacon of Human rights. For example Dalits and Adivasis In India are at the bottom of the Economic ladder of India, many are landless Labourers and are treated almost as badly as slaves by Upper caste Hindus. They are routinely abused, lynched, harrased, massacred by upper caste Hindus and the authorities(who are upper castes). Adivasis are often kicked of their lands by large companies who are after resources in their areas and authorities are complicit in this. SO PLEASE DON'T TRY TO TELL ME THAT THE HR SITUATION IN INDIA IS ANY BETTER THAN IN SRI LANKA.


Thirdly you talk about children in SR being slaughtered and rightfully so, but what about all the children India who die of malnutrition(1/2 of all malnutiritioned children in the world come from India), isn't that just as bad because they are dying of Govt. negligence. You have to remember that parts of India are as poor as Sub Saharan Africa.

Fourthly Former Yugoslav countries such as Bosnia, Serbia,Croatia committed the same HR abuses that SR is committing now. E.g Slobadan Melosovic and Bosnian death camps where 1000's or more Bosnian women and children were slaughtered. However a lot of these Yugoslav countries have much better standards of living than many 3rd world countries including your India.

Dr Tom Smith on Mortality > Peptic ulcer, site unspecified 769 days 21 hours 27 minutes 39 seconds ago Do you have any data after 2004? This seems so out of date that it is no longer useful. And how accurate can the statistics be for some of the countries with so few deaths, some 30-fold less than the United Kingdom, for example?
Nathalia Zollinger on Health > Maternal mortality 769 days 22 hours 38 minutes 55 seconds ago Ok, I can't find; Ethiopia, Afganistan, and Angola on there, PUT THEM ON! But, other than that really great info. better than anywhere else. :)
