Re: Education
There's a big difference between being educated and just being literate. When more and more people get educated they are better able to assess right from wrong since education is not only about book smarts.
So more and more corrupt-free minded people are produced.
"And once we have given our community a good start,' I pointed out, ' the process will be cumulative. By maintaining a sound system of education you produce citizens of good character, and citizens of sound character, with the advantage of a good education, produce in turn children better than themselves......."(Plato)
Hopefully the number of people who are literate and well educated goes up in south asia.
