The Positive Impacts Of Madagascar Minerals

By Raymond Myers


The world could not have been where it is without the positive impacts of minerals. The blessings of oil are very evident in Dubai, Qatar and Saudi Arabia among other Middle Eastern countries. Dubai was once a backwater, before the invention of oil. Presently, it is a leading port city and financial center. The Madagascan Island is no exception. This archipelago does not have oil but it has other Madagascar minerals, spread all over the country. Oil and natural gas are not the only resources that can make people rich. Mineral deposits in Madagascar have attracted many investors.

The most prominent impact is the economic impact. When there are serious mineral deposits, the economic outlook of a country can change in less than a year. This is because of the infusion of a lot of foreign income to a country. When mineral products are sold in the international market, payment is made in dollars, pounds, yen and precious Euros.

Mining has had an impact on different classes of people. It has impacted the rich, middle income earners and also the poor. Some people have been able to conquer poverty as a result of being involved in mining activities. It is true that some of the rich Madagascans have grown richer due to the fact that they own mining companies.

Generally, the different mining activities that take part in Madagascar have increased the GDP. With a good GDP figure, it is easy for a country to borrow money from the large financial institutions. Increased GDP also causes the increase in per capita income. Therefore, citizens end up enjoying a better quality of life. Wellbeing of people is an important matter.

Foreign direct investments are coming to Madagascar at a rate never seen before. People are planning in foreign capitals how they can invest in the mineral sector of this county. For any country to develop and attain high income status there is need for investments from foreigners. A closed economy will soon fail. Free market is a good economic system.

The Madagascan archipelago is attracting investors from even far places like China and Russia. This is because of the measures that have been put in place to make this jurisdiction a great investment destination. Several economic measures instituted by the government have made financial institutions to be very effective in their operations. Banks now have serious and reliable deposit protections.

Due to the rise of the mineral sector, other sectors are rising as well. In any economy, there is interdependence. Thus, when one industry grows, the others grow as well. When there is economic failure in one sector, it can easily spread to other economic sectors. Mining is dependent on efficient logistics, secure IT systems, and good financial institutions.

Wonderful transformations are happening in the southern eastern part of Africa. That is where the Madagascan islands are located. This region of the world is experiencing a level of prosperity that has never been seen before and it is all because of newly found mineral deposits. These natural resources are greatly transforming different areas of the Madagascan society. There have been social and economic impacts.
