DEVELOPMENT: In Amazon Region, Progress Comes at High Price
By Zoraida Portillo
LIMA, May 8, 1998 (IPS) - Teachers and parents of children in a hamlet in the Amazonian rain forest of Peru had to postpone indefinitely the start of school this year because they had no money to buy textbooks or notebooks. In another village, more than 5,000 tons of jute is awaiting a buyer because the cost of the plant imported from India or Pakistan is cheaper than the local rate.
These two images illustrate the poverty of Amazonian villages where ethnic groups shun the trappings of modern society in order to maintain their identity and, more importantly, prevent the introduction of endemic illnesses such as malaria that in previous times have decimated their populations.
