Ignorance can be defined as the lack of knowledge, understanding or information about something.


Something here, could mean anything it could be viewed from many angles, viz: social issues, religion, technology, local issues and even world issues.

One would begin to wonder the criteria used by  Ipsos MORI but one thing is for sure,  the countries on this list are ignorant about one thing or the other.

The countries:

1. India
2. China
3. Taiwan
4. South Africa
5. USA
6. Brazil
7. Thailand
8. Sinigapore
9. Turkey
10. Indonesia

To arrive at this conclusion, Ipsos MORI, a British market research firm, did 27,250 interviews between September andNovember this year. The managing director of the Ipsos MORI, Bobby Duffy, said that;

“Across all 40 countries in the study, each population gets a lot wrong. We are often most incorrect on factors that are widely discussed in the media, such as the proportion of our population that are Muslims and wealth inequality,”“We know from previous studies that this is partly because we over-estimate what we worry about.”
