Dear
Friends,
Do
you know that Ethiopia ranks 65th by GDP (PPP) among 225 countries
of the world? Isn't this something many of did not know
heretofore? Isn't this spectacular and indeed incredible, so to
speak? Isn't it our gift for the millennium? God bless Ethiopia
and the Ethiopians. God bless you all.

There
are three lists of countries
of the world sorted by their gross
domestic product (GDP) (the value of all final goods and
services produced within a nation in a given year). The GDP
dollar estimates given on this page are derived from Purchasing
Power Parity
(PPP) calculations. Using a PPP basis is arguably more useful
when comparing generalized differences in living standards on
the whole between nations because PPP takes into account the
relative cost of living and the inflation rates of the
countries, rather than using just exchange rates which may
distort the real differences in income. However, economies do
self-adjust to currency changes over time, and technology
intensive and luxury goods, raw materials and energy prices are
mostly unaffected by difference in currency (the latter more by
subsidies), despite being critical to national development,
therefore, the sales of foreign apparel or gasoline per liter in
China is more accurately measured by the nominal figure, but
everyday food and haircuts by PPP. Pirated goods and subsidies
also heavily affect PPP. The Market
Exchange Rate
(MER) GDP, both nominal and real figures, is more useful for
understanding the international economic purchasing power
(overall relative economic power) and the total value of
tradeable goods and services of different countries.
- The
second table shows 162 national entities as well as figures
for the European
Union and the
World. This list was compiled by the World Bank. Data is for
the year 2005,
with figures in millions of international
dollars.
