Homework for Block E and Block H (Friday 6th October)
On Friday the 6th of October, I found out about lots of interesting facts about what challenges countries face. There are very big differences in some countries such as the percentage of cell phone users in Colombia and Taiwan. Colombia’s percentage of cell phone users is 23% when Taiwan’s percentage of cell phone users is 109%! For Taiwan, this means that 9% of the people have more than one cell phone! Not even half of the population in Colombia has cell phones! That fact was interesting, surprising and yet I learned from it! Another big difference I found in GDP rate was with one country and another country. One country had a GDP per capita of only 400 dollars when another country had a GDP per capita of 4,900 dollars! This is an extremely big difference and I think that these types of differences are not good at all. Overall I learned lots of facts about different countries and I’m glad to have had this opportunity.
