Poverty in Africa VS Poverty in Brunei

There are 24 hours in a day and 60 minutes in an hour. However, how many people die during that time because of poverty? We have things that we need and want like mobile phones, and we need food. But what do the poor people need and want?

Most of the people in the poorer countries in Africa live in poverty, don't have things that want and need because they are penniless. There are more people live in poverty in parts of Africa than in Brunei, and poverty in Africa is worse than in Brunei.

In Brunei, we have clean water, food, clean clothes and house to live. But in Africa, most of the poor people don't have some or all of that. Most of the poor people in Africa that don't have enough water have to drink dirty water because of thirst.

Some of them die because of hunger and sickness because of the dirty water. From the way they live, I think they feel miserable, misery and unlucky. I hope that I can help them.
