Poverty cannot be easily alleviated. While poverty can be easily alleviated in a country where the government puts in adequate and efficient efforts to improve the economy and thereby alleviating poverty, there are many other factors affecting poverty, such as the governance of the country. In today’s world, there are still many countries who experience high level of poverty despite the fact that the government puts in efforts. Therefore, a strong government is essential in seeing what is more efficient in poverty alleviation. The government plays an important role in decision making for the country’s economy growth to make poverty easily alleviated.
