I did -it's in front of me 4.1% last year - Russia 5.9%, Romania 5% Latvia 7.5%, ukraine 6%, China 9.8%
hahaha 5.9% of what... Maybe you bought it, but you don't know what it means... That is the increase in GDP. Poorer countries usually grow faster then richer countires.
Here let me help you...
Polish GDI per capita: US $7,100 (World Bank, 2006)
China GNI per capita: US $1,740 (World Bank, 2006)
India GNI per capita: US $720 (World Bank, 2006)
Russia GNI per capita: US $4,460 (World Bank, 2006)
So basically Poland is well above China and India and above Russia.
Plus, all of that GDP in Russia comes from resources like oil and minerals... Poland is far more service based. Much better off...
So please explain to me how Poland is a third world economy?
