So what do you think is your country missing to get out of being a third world country stage?

Some of these you have already answered yourself - but of course there are many others that should not be ignored.
Having abundant natural resources is the biggest supporting factor for advancing a country economically - but only if it is managed independently ^{[at least 80%-90% managed independently].} China has many natural resources that can be utilized for the prosperity of the nation - while they are also improving in terms of human resources over time. It's hard to compare many countries with China - but another very important factor in a country's progress is when its government is not corrupt.

It is certainly true that if abundant natural resources can be activated and if there is transparency in their management, then it certainly provides a great support to turn a Third World country into a developed country. In this case, if we also look at the Middle East, most of the Arab countries have transformed into developed countries only because of their natural resource oil.

However, I do not think that a third world country can be developed or sustained for a long time by being dependent only on natural resources. Because if natural resources are depleted over a period of time, then those countries that are dependent only on natural resources will face danger. In this case, human resources must be utilized. The people of the country must be educated in vocational education. People must not sit idle and at the same time, they must remain free from corruption.
