The Human Development Index

[Pepe n Pilar]

Well, the UK, I am shocked it's so low to be honest.

As for the Philippines, it's no shock that it's a developing/underdeveloped country! Otherwise Known As = Third World!

Yes i was shocked as well UK in #21. Phils belongs to the 3rd world country thus under the category of underdeveloped hence it is developing?.. I have to make a research on this. not so sure...

Ireland is in the Top Ten. Take that!

Wow Ireland on # 5!!

I did watched news before about Norway. Their prison cells has a capacity of a certain number only so if there are new prisoners they have to wait in their homes until a vacancy..lol. They don't want to have an over crowded prison cells. So people that are convicted of major crimes are just roaming around town and have a normal life but of course they are being watched by authorities. I wonder why are they on top of the list? wowow....Based on the three HDI combined dimensions
