Before asking this question have you carried out your research about the countries you are referring to and if you did, what was your result? Are these countries still the same as it were in the past 20 years? There's a saying that change is constant, which  means that definitely there's going to be changes in those nations ni matter how long it might take. I will use my country for example, there have been so many good changes now compare to when I was still a kid and I hope that there will be more good development that will come forth, it might not be in my favour again but for my own kids.
