<h3>Is Samoa a devoloping country, newly industrialized country, or an industrialized country?</h3>

Is Samoa a developing country, newly industrialized country, or an industrialized country? If you can, provide a source to prove the answer and also state where its positives are as well as negatives (for ex. good healthcare in Samoa however the economy and GDP PER CAPITA isn't very good.)

Thank you! :)

U.S. Ambassador Huebner in Samoa - SURVIVOR, FA'AFAFINE, PEACE CORPS, SAVAI'I

From U.S. Ambassador Huebner's Blog:

The last few days of my current Samoa trip have been exceptionally busy, which is how I like it. Samoa is a fascinating and diverse place, and I make it a point to meet as many new people and learn as many new things as I can each time I visit. There never seems to be enough time to do everything that I would like to do.

One of my most interesting meetings this time around was with leaders of the Samoa Fa'afafine Association. Established in 2006, the Association addresses issues faced by gender identity and sexual orientation minorities in Samoa. Fa'afafine occupy a respected place in Samoan culture and society, as evidenced by the fact that Prime Minister Tuila'epa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi serves as the Association's outside patron.
