Not all povert­y comes from lack of resour­ces, some come from poor and ineffi­cient manage­ment of resour­cesReferring to the Prime Minister’s recent speech on growing poverty coupled with inadequate health facilities reminds me of how a poor family is caught in an unending poverty trap. This brings to mind the obvious factors contributing to these ever-worsening health indicators. Access to safe milk, like safe water, is everyone’s first priority and it should be made available easily. Such rhetoric does earn us popularity but we need to do better on our health indicators. Ensuring the availability of safe milk alone can help us improve our health indicators and poverty indicators significantly.
