The former Spanish colony's richest ... Infant mortality in Africa
... you could have guessed ten years ago that was Mexico, Argentina, Chile or Venezuela with their petrodollars. And the answer had been correct: they all had in 2000 per capita income (in PPP terms) of between 8,000 and 9,000 dollars per person.
But today, according to data from World Bank, Equatorial Guinea, with a per capita income of almost $ 20,000 is in theory among the 30 richest countries in the world. And despite all nearly 15% of children die before reaching five years , a figure which is worse only in 13 countries worldwide. A shame that the international community, and Spain in particular, remains entertaining a character as despicable as Obiang Nguema.
