The above table reveals the standard of living in five nations in 1982 by comparing their four broad economic indicators. The five countries listed are Bangladesh, Bolivia, Egypt, Indonesia and USA.
According to the statistics contained in the table, it is apparent that the USA, the superpower of the world, achieved the highest GNP ( $ 13160 per head) and its people's average daily calorie intake also ranked the first (3652 per head). Moreover, while the American people enjoyed the longest life expectancy, its infant mortality rate was the lowest. It goes without saying that the USA had the highest level of living.
However, from the figures, we are sorry to find that the other four developing nations had a considerably lower quality of life. Firstly, there is not much difference in the four broad eco-nomic indicators of Egypt, Indonesia and Bolivia, the GNP per head being $690, $580 and $570 respectively. In terms of the first three economic indicators, Egypt seemed to rank the first among the four developing countries. However, for infant mortality rate, it was slightly higher than Indonesia by 10 % .
What also impresses us is that among the five listed countries, Bangladesh had the lowest quality of life in terms of all four indicators. It is striking to note that its GNP was only one hundredth of the USA's and that its calorie intake and life expectancy were about half those in the USA. As to infant mortality rate, it ranked the highest.
From the statistics presented in the table, we may see clearly that the development of countries in different regions varies and the gap between them is astonishing.
