Today is Blog Action Day focusing on poverty, every blogger will be united on this day to discuss poverty issues. This is my first time to participate.
Poverty is a very delicate issue, everyone have his own point of view… the origin… the causes… the effects… its a global issue. Poverty is a condition in which the basic needs of human beings (shelter, food, and clothing) are not being met. I browsed the net to search for some files about poverty, somehow it will give us a better understanding.
