Like the old saying "A fish can feed a man for a day, but teaching him how to fish can feed him for life..." Much better to inject some working capital to the poors who are keen in establishing business and work their way out of poverty, rather than feeding them with basics but keeping them poor. It was really pleasing to see a documentary show about some African people were able to start their business with microcredit program and succeed with their own skills in life.
