Here are three images of the Malagasy people I saw on my trip to Madagascar. I always include some images of the people in each country I visit in my album. I will be off Flickr till tomorrow evening. I will comment as much as possible when I return home.

 

Two more images in the first comment section.

 

On the way to the airport which would take us back to Antananarivo/Tana, we stopped at a village market to take photos. Here are three images of the Malagasy people selling their wares at the local market on main street. Most of the villages we came across in our travels only had one road running thru it.

 

Madagascar is one of the world's poorest countries. The country's economy is based largely on agriculture, mining, fishing, and clothes production. ... Despite relatively high vanilla prices, the average Malagasy makes around $1 US per day, while 70% of the Malagasy live below the world poverty line.
