That’s a tiny number!

Germany and U.K. received a trillion dollars from USA in 1948.

Japan and Korea also received 100s of billions.

BD has done exceptionally well given the paucity of external help.

Study and learn before you vomit your as usual ignorance about the world affairs.

Just shut up your big mouth if you have nothing to say about the WB and other contributions to BD.

With entire world helps BD it remains a lame mule that cannot even stand on its own two feet. Leaders keep on stealing money and fanboys like you smile broadly.

You are a very shameless idiot. Stop bickering and talk about BD.
