    I didn't even think of the racial implications there. Thanks to you and others for pointing it out.

      Yeah no worries I just wanted to add a little onto yours because you made great points.

      It's a super common theme in "global development" where global north countries will come in and say "it's just such a particular process we want to make sure it goes right" without ever giving countries an opportunity to do anything themselves. And it just keeps them relient on other countries/NGOs like the Bill Gates Foundation which keeps those institutions entrenched in power.
