How pathetic are these countries, which may gradually become used to accepting assistance without making any spontaneous efforts. In the long run, they will be eventually deprived of the capability to live on their own. On the other hand, these generous countries may also pay a heavy price for what they do, which is largely due to the fact that the insatiability of human wants will put them under not only crippling financial burden but also excessive international pressure. For those openhanded governments who nonetheless fail to guarantee the well-being of their own people, the inconsiderate deed is very likely to spark hostility in their people and thus shake the domestic stability and hinder the economic development.

But unfortunately many countries do so with intentions that the strengthened bond between them will pay off in cases of emergency or crisis in such a complex and highly-changeable political, economic and natural climate. To their disappointment, this possibility can be easily ruled out as nations would take measures only for their own interests.
