What a joke.
Only Nigeria only has more dual carriageway than the entire East Africa, this is just a fact.

It doesn't take anything away that ur country still lagging behind
Don't get carried away, this is what is categorized as manufacturing by the link.

Manufacturing refers to industries belonging to ISIC divisions 15-37. Value added is the net output of a sector after adding up all outputs and subtracting intermediate inputs. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or depletion and degradation of natural resources. The origin of value added is determined by the International Standard Industrial Classification (ISIC), revision 3. Data are in current U.S. dollars
It literally offers no a valuable assessment other than the total output through $ returns, & we know resource rich countries tend to do better in such analysis.

Instead a better measure on manufacturing is based on productivity & use of available resources, & the word economic forum has a 2019 report on Global competitiveness

Methodology
We define competitiveness as the set of institutions, policies, and factors that determine the level of productivity of a country The level of productivity, in turn, sets the level of prosperity that can be reached by an economy. The productivity level also determines the rates of return obtained by investments in an economy, which in turn are the fundamental drivers of its growth rates. In other words, a more competitive economy is one that is likely to grow faster over time

1. Mauritius
2. South Africa
3. Morroco
4. Seychelles
5. Algeria
6. Botswana
7. Egypt
8. Namibia
9. Kenya
10. Rwanda

Kenya's manufacturing is way more diverse than Ghana's, it only ranks second to south africa among the countries currently here debating.

Bro, dual carriageway is an achievement, and part of infrastructural developments, if you doubt me, ask the Europeans or Chinese or even American, or our brothers, South Africa building dual carriageway, because they know the importance of it.
Watch this video, although I couldn't get a better video to prove you wrong about your claim, this is Senegal road, and I don't think you will find this kind of road in East Africa.

How are you interpreting the list?

Countries ranked (LDC, & Developing Countries) Vs countries not ranked (Developed countries)

So, in Africa out of the 55 countries there are.
31 that are LDC
8 that are Developing countries

And these 16 Unranked African countries.

Algeria - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Comoros - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Congo - Ranked: LDC
Egypt - Ranked: Developing
Ethiopia - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Eritrea - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Equatorial Guinea - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Ivory Coast - Ranked: LDC
Libya - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Sao tome and principle - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Somalia - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
South Africa - Ranked: Developed
South Sudan - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Sudan - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............
Seychelles - Ranked: Developed
Western Sahara - Not a WTO member thus not ranked...............

(Developed according to jln115)

I'm not saying the list is flawed, I'm sure we can both agree for now your interpretation skills are wanting, I gather the unranked countries are not purposely intended to be included while interpreting the list...

it's also quite clear the office of the U.S TRADE is using it's own specific methodologies to compile the list, & probably provides each term with its own new meaning through these set thresholds. Well then, I guess you should also be kind enough to post the link or methodologies used.
See above wink

I hope you have that much energy for this guy.

He said those countries on the first page are the least developed countries.

Countries like
Ghana
Kenya
Nigeria
Tanzania etc are part of the least developed countries in the World.

And those on the second page are the developing countries, meaning countries like
Fiji
Jamaica
Guyana
Tonga etc are all developing countries all because
Namibia
Morocco and
Tunisia are on that second page grin grin grin


How can you can? Only Judge can God grin grin grin

Very simple.....they are more developed!

What i have seen on the video can't match dongoKundu road mr.

Dongo Kundu has its unique features that you can't see on any road and that's why I didn't post ngong road, Thika road, Langata road, bypassess etc to prove my point.

You can also take a look at this.

The Special standards

You're not using the list as it was intended to be used.

The effect of these designations is
limited to Title VII of the Act.
Specifically, section 771(36)(E) of the
Act provides that the fact that a WTO
Member is designated in the list as
developing or least-developed has no effect on how that Member may be
classified with respect
to any other law
The list is made with regards to the UN methodology. But has some special biases.

Data Sources
In making the designations, the U.S.
Trade Representative relied on per
capita gross national income (GNI) data
from the World Bank and trade data
from the Trade Data Monitor
which
contains official data from national
statistical bureaus, customs authorities,
central banks, and other government
agencies.
3. Designation of WTO Members as
Least-Developed Countries
As explained above, the distinction
between developing and least-
developed countries no longer matters
for purposes of the de minimis
threshold: both are eligible for the same
2 percent rate. Nonetheless, for clarity
and consistent with section 771(36) of
the Act, this notice separately identifies
developing and least-developed
countries. The list of WTO Members
that are least-developed countries is
derived from Annex VII to the SCM
Agreement, which describes least-
developed countries as those designated
by the United Nations
(Annex VII(a))
and named in Annex VII(b)), provided
the per capita GNP has not reached
$1,000 per annum
A number of WTO
Members are included on the United
Nations list of least-developed
countries,1 and several more are
included under Annex VII(b) based
upon their GNI per capita at constant
1990 dollars: Coˆte d’Ivoire, Ghana,
Honduras, Kenya, Nicaragua, Nigeria,
Pakistan, Senegal, and Zimbabwe
.2
Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, the other named countries... are listed under special request according to the 1990 data. So no these countries aren't affirmatively reported as being LDC according to the 2020 report.

To be considered a developed country, one must have GNI of over $12,375 yet according to the special standards, share of world trade might influence certain countries to be treated as being developed or not, Hong Kong & South Korea are developing countries while Brazil, India... Are considered developed.

For purposes of U.S. CVD law, the
U.S. Trade Representative therefore
considers countries with a share of 0.5
percent or more of world trade to be
developed countries. Thus, Brazil,
India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand,
and Viet Nam are ineligible for the 2
percent de minimis standard,
notwithstanding that, based on the most
recent World Bank data, each country
has a per capita GNI below $12,375
.

Infact the only reason South Africa isn't eligible to be categories under the two terms, is due to it being a member of G20. Not infrastructure, economy or any more meaningful measures.

The U.S. Trade Representative also
took into account G20 membership. The
G20 was established in September 1999,
and so was not considered in the 1998
rule. The G20 is a preeminent forum for
international economic cooperation,
which brings together major economies
and representatives of large
international institutions such as the
World Bank and International Monetary
Fund. Given the global economic
significance of the G20, and the
collective economic weight of its
membership (which accounts for large
shares of global economic output and
trade), G20 membership indicates that a
country is developed. Thus, Argentina,
Brazil, India, Indonesia, and South
Africa are ineligible
for the 2 percent de
minimis standard, notwithstanding that,
based on the most recent World Bank
data, each country has a per capita GNI
below $12,375.
The list is useful but not for current country to country analysis, since it confesses to its own biases on the flexible use of terms such as developing, developed...

_ "has no effect on how that Member may be
classified with respect to any other law" As I've stated before, countries not part of the WTO were not listed

- "Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, the other named countries... are listed under special request according to the 1990 data. So no these countries aren't affirmatively reported as being LDC according to the 2020 report." Do you know why they are listed at special request? grin

- "Hong Kong & South Korea are developing countries while Brazil, India... Are considered developed." Hong Kong & S Korea were not on the list as developing countries...........and Brazil, India and China have been newly classified as developed as of 2020.
