Ireland: From Poverty to Riches
How does Ireland move from poverty to riches? In a short span, Ireland has undergone an economic transformation that few European countries can rival. Throughout most of the 20th century, Ireland was considered the "poor man" of Western Europe. However, the 1990s witnessed an astonishing surge, propelling the nation into a transatlantic business and multinational investment hub, earning it the moniker "Celtic Tiger." With a population of over 7 million, Ireland has become the headquarters for major tech giants, with over 700 US multinationals establishing a significant presence in the country. The Irish government capitalizes on its investment appeal, boasting a friendly low-tax environment, robust tech expertise, and the status of an English-speaking EU member state, all geared towards fostering continued growth. What factors drove this astronomical economic growth?
Renewable Energy
Ireland's commitment to harnessing renewable energy, with 40 per cent of its power sourced from sustainable means, plays a pivotal role in fostering the country's growth. The adoption of renewable sources aligns with global efforts to combat climate change, enhancing Ireland's environmental sustainability and reinforcing its image as an eco-friendly and responsible nation. This transition to renewable energy contributes to economic growth by reducing dependency on non-renewable resources, ensuring energy security, and mitigating environmental risks. The government's investments in renewable technologies, such as wind and solar power, not only create jobs but also attract international partnerships and investments, fostering a green economy. Moreover, the emphasis on renewable energy aligns with Ireland's positioning as a forward-thinking and innovative nation. It enhances the country's global competitiveness, attracts environmentally conscious businesses, and establishes Ireland as a leader in sustainable practices, driving economic development while addressing crucial environmental challenges.
Advancement in Information Technology
Ireland's growth received a substantial boost through strategic initiatives that attracted major tech giants like Dell, Google, and Intel, catalysing significant investments in the country. In 1990, the Irish government took a bold step by creating an investment-friendly environment, setting the stage for unprecedented economic development. The influx of tens of billions of dollars in investments from prominent technology companies played a pivotal role in Ireland's economic transformation. Dell, Google, and Intel established substantial operations and production facilities in the country, contributing to job creation, technology transfer, and the overall expansion of Ireland's tech sector. This strategic move not only enhanced Ireland's global competitiveness but also positioned it as a preferred destination for multinational corporations seeking a European foothold while reducing the country’s unemployment rates significantly. The presence of these tech giants fuelled innovation, research and development activities, and increased Ireland's economic resilience, ultimately fostering sustained growth and prosperity. The government's foresight in creating an attractive investment climate laid the foundation for Ireland's success as a tech hub on the global stage, propelling it to gradually rise from poverty to riches.

    Jaywick is a genuine problem, but caused by the council decades ago, either by being too soft on local by-laws, or not closing loop holes for all year living in supposed holiday homes. The people, by accident, short sighted necessity, for a permanent nice view or whatever, should not have put themselves in that position, years back and now it's 2nd and 3rd generations living there in a dead end place! They could have sold those holiday homes other people and moved to one of hundreds of places where jobs are easier to come by.

If you don't answer it's the same like saying that I'm right and that you agree with me, admitting you messed it up.

    I'm currently working on a big construction project outside of Memphis, but I'm staying in Midtown. Midtown is quite nice. There is lots of old architecture and things are kept up pretty well here. I also stayed in the suburb of Germantown my first month here and that is a good and safe area. The locals tell me to stay out of the northern and southern neighborhoods of Memphis and you can tell when you are around those parts and look down the roads off the main streets that there is nothing good going on over there.

    There is strict gun control in Asutralia which means that schools never get shot up and gun violence almost never happens. Much better to have a 'free' society where children at school have to learn drills for when their school is invaded by a crazed gunman. And it's disappointing to have to drive on roads where other drivers are strictly polliced on their drug and alcohol consumption. Your other 9 points are equally valid for why you would not want to live in Australia. Well at least you didn't begin your video knocking Australia with the New Zealand flag, like others have done.

    Singapore is not for these category of people. 1. Pampered, entitled spoilt brats. (People who expects the wait staff to grovel at their feet). Meat dishes are served with bones hence no boneless meat unless otherwise stated. Service is efficient and fluid considering there is no tip culture and don't complain about not being served with napkins. In this city, if you ain't packing tissues/napkins, how the heck did you wipe your sweaty forehead with. 2. Negative people with "every silver lining has a cloud" attitude. Comments like "all these things are manmade and artificial". It shows your lack of understanding of your own existence. Everything is manmade and artificial since early humans left their caves and trees. For those clueless and disoriented, if you landed in this place, be advised that you are 1 degree North of the Equator, when the midday sun is at its zenith where only mad dogs and Englishman dare to tread.
