Practical steps crucial in attaining the status of a developed country

Recently, I saw a video clip of an Arab man from the United Arab Emirates in which he was saying that what Kenya lacks is not resources, but dedicated leadership. I couldn’t agree more. He gave the example of the UAE, a country with limited resources compared to Kenya, but today enjoying one of the highest Gross Domestic Products and an economy several times larger than ours.

I am beginning to cast doubt on whether we really need democracy. Remember countries like the UAE are not democratic, they are led by monarchs who have no tolerance for anything democratic.
