G8 Debt Relief

Malawi is one of the 18 nations that qualify for G8 debt-relief. The G8 has decided to erase the debt accrued by many of the poorest nations in the world. Of course, as mentioned in this BBC article, the funds freed up by this move only helps the poorest if used in constructive ways. Thankfully, Malawi's president seems to be making inroads against internal corruption. Programs like Flood's Leadership Summit will help empower Malawians to grab hold of their future.

This is great... somehow I expect that "It has received a generally positive reaction in Africa itself." is an understatement.
