Lessons for all in poverty relief effort

Approaches might be local, but the significance is global.

Having followed the poverty relief issue over the past two years, I began to think of myself as something of an expert on it.

However, that illusion was dispelled as soon as the annual gathering of legislators kicked off on March 5, with many participants offering insights based on their expertise in combating poverty. I now expect my knowledge gap to widen further by the time the meeting wraps up on Friday.
