There are many ways where we can begin how people from "third world" countries may see Chris. Most people from third world nations lack what Chris has; his
, his material "wealth", his "loving parents", shelter, electricity, running water, and Internet at least. But what most third world people (or just most people in general) have that Chris does not have are friends. Also, money in other countries are lower in value than the American dollar and some things in those countries, especially Vietnam, are much cheaper than in America. At the time of this posting, here's what one American dollar is in Vietnamese dong.
1 United States Dollar = 21,083.70 Vietnamese Dong
I've been to my own country of Vietnam before and just one dollar can get you a lot of things such as a full meal. Beer from tap in Vietnam is 50 cents in USD. Some gifts in Vietnam are less than two dollars. There's a lot of things that are cheap in my country and I could see how some of my people may be jealous of Chris because the
he gets would make him rich by Vietnamese standards. I think Chris could live in a good hotel with all amenities included in my country at the rate of his
. But Vietnamese people tend to be far more happier than Chris because there's always people to be with in my country and there's more to see (just avoid camping in Vietnam and if you do, ask the local government for a permit because there are still unexploded ordnance or UXO in some parts of the jungles).
But let's say what if we introduce a Congolese child to Chris? How would he react? Perhaps, we can answer this question with some nationalities and their theoretical responses to Chris. I'll start first.
Vietnamese: He looks unhappy, ugly, and dumpy. He also has no friends too.
Azerbaijani: He never experienced any human rights violations like I have. He gets to post whatever he wants on the Internet and in Azerbaijan, my Internet is monitored by the government and if I say something wrong, I'll be arrested without trial.
Eritrean: I always feel nervous when using the Internet or phone because the government watches what I do. Chris can spew out anything vile he wants and not be punished over it. Second, it's no fair that America lets him get away with things because of his autism and how autistic people in my country tend to be institutionalized. Not to mention, the American government is caring for their people and mine is not.
Uruguayan: Eeeew!
What do you think other people of "third world" countries would say about Chris if they were introduced to him?
