Ethan Zuckerman reports on
Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's presentation at
TED that received a standing ovation,he
states that:
She tells us about “a different Africa”, not the Africa we hear about all the time: poverty, hiv, malaria, conflict, disaster. “It’s true that these things are going on, but there’s also an Africa you don’t hear about very much, an Africa that’s growing and reforming itself....“We have to help Africa transform by creating jobs.” That means we don’t have to concentrate on making drugs cheaper - “We allow people to buy the antimalaria drugs themselves,” because they’ve got high-paying jobs.
