| Message | High levels of foreign aid doesn't help countries, ultimately free trade is the best solution |

| Message | free trade is not a solution, not at all, on the contrary it makes things worse for weak economic systems. A solution will be to aid the foreign countries' know-how to develop. I teach to the fisherman how to go fishing, instead of supplying him with the fish. For that reason we can support the bill, high aid numbers could hide lack of community develop. One of our goals (see that our candidate for Ministry of Finance is named Muhammad Yunus and is the 2006 Nobel Prize ) is to diffuse microcredit and microfinance. A good instrument for any poor who cannot get loans in the free market . Free for the riches only. |
