A report from the U.N. Development Program had recently rated Lebanon’s poverty level at 28.5 percent, with 8 percent of those living in extreme poverty. About a month later, a visiting Malaysian donor, who had recently sponsored 10 Lebanese children, was driven to the airport, via Downtown and along the new road out of the city. He withdrew his sponsorship, deciding to donate to children living elsewhere.
