topic on "The county of Madagascar "

Answer 1

Madagascar, an island state in southern Africa located in the Indian Ocean east of Mozambique, is the world's fifth largest island, with a land mass of 587,000 square kilometers and 25.5 million people in 2017. It is one of the poorest countries in the world, given its abundant natural resources.

The nation is a democratic republic with a semi-presidential delegate, but the head of state is self-proclaimed. The Prime Mister is a multi-party system's head of government. The government has the power of the executive. There is legislative power in the legislature, the Senate and the National Assembly. There is a judiciary that is autonomous.

Power struggles in Madagascar have been a concern. After the nation gained independence, there were coups, disputed elections, and murders.

Despite growth projected at 5.2 percent in 2018, the economy stayed resilient, a rate comparable to the last five years. Positive macroeconomic conditions, including a fall in inflation from 8.3% in 2017 to 7.3% in 2018, a relatively stable real effective exchange rate, and a fiscal deficit under control, underpinned the buoyancy of the private sector, especially the flourishing growth of the service sector. Growth has also been recorded in the financial, logistics and real estate development sectors. In 2018, good weather conditions triggered an increase in agricultural production.

Such positive economic outcomes, however, barely affected the poverty rate, which dropped from 77.7% in 2014 to 75.1% in 2018. Agriculture plays a key role in development with poverty in Madagascar as the country's leading employer and subsistence of 80 percent of the population. In recent years, however, agricultural growth has been too small and unstable, appearing to be lower than demographic growth.

The economy is expected to remain on its course of growth in the coming years, driven by increased investments in the public and private sectors, including through public-private partnerships (PPPs). Export growth is expected to remain high due to strong global demand for nickel and vanilla.

Madagascar is one of the world's poorest countries, with 75% of the population living on less than $1.90 a day. The human capital index of the nation is also one of the lowest in the world, with the fourth highest level of chronic malnutrition in the world, with one child in two under five years suffering from stunting. In 2012, the fifth highest number in the world, an unprecedented 1.4 million children dropped out of primary school.
