The shanty towns in our large cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte and Sao Paulo are expanding and their residents lack basic facilities such as electricity and clean water. Our interest on the debt is growing each year and we need to invest in our industries if we are to ever pay back this money. Developing the Amazon can generate some of this necessary investment.’ Fact File Capital - Brazilia Population – 162 million GNP per capita - $3,370 Debt - $1,153 million Literacy – 80% Tourism – over 1 million visitors per year L T - Why is the Grand Carajas Scheme inportant to Brazil?
