1 Challenge and Solution
- In the 1990's the Standard of living was Dropping
- I think Peru should have found more resources that people would want and or buy. Also they could have made better snacks and just in the normal food! Last but not least they should find actives people would enjoy
2 Challenge and Solution
- Hospitals are low on certain things and the ones in Lima are very expensive
- The hospitals in Lima should not be very expensive. Also they should send out people to get the stuff that they need like the medicine, food, etc;.
