Summary

This quote highlights the disparity that can exist in a developing country when it comes to opportunities and power. It suggests that despite having individuals with advanced education (two PhD holders), one of them holds a position of authority as the head of state, while the other has been forced into exile. This short explanation draws attention to the unequal distribution of resources and opportunities in developing nations, emphasizing the potential for brain drain and the difficulties faced by those who may be driven away from their own country due to political circumstances.
