Actor Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina Dhowre Elba called on Monday for business and political leaders to provide more support to the world's poorest countries in the form of investment rather than aid.

At the opening ceremony of the World Economic Forum annual meeting in the Swiss mountain resort of Davos, the Elbas were both honoured for their work on environmental conservation, food security and climate change.

"The poor of this world are not just looking for aid and handouts, they’re looking for investment," Idris Elba said.

Ohh a circle jerk award. How cool!

I deleted all his music.

QondiNtini Good people!

Idris Elba. Forever you'll be celebrated, a prophet actor

These people can take a private jet to their destination. Then take a limo to the hotel. But they want poor to pay for the poor. Yeeeaaaah, exactly.

With all the billionaires in the world.Who could end hunger of the world poor. As well as shoe the children. You want my lousy $10.00? What's the saying again. It's easier for a camel to walk through an eye of a needle. Than it is for a rich man to set one foot into heaven.

You first.

So you mean you want people who give money to be able to get a return on their investment. If they don’t get a return on the investment, then it is just a handout.

They are looking for human trafickers and climate change to enter a 4 star hotel.

The poor of this world want electricity and water … otherwise leave them alone and let them get on with their lives.

What does a model have to do with any of this? Just more commercial BS while nothing changes.

Great. Open your own wallet then, not mine.

WEF needs to be dumped

My hunch is that 60% of this funding is fraud. I have seen US Aid Rice “sold” in market.

.QondiNtini did you see this?

100 private jets to save the polar bears 🤡🤡🤡🤡

From potential james bond replacement to villain

Yes I need some fiat to invest bitcoin

Depends on who is doing the investment and for what purpose.

Bitcoin fixes this

They’re looking for the Davos Elite to stop the pretence. The hypocrisy is sickening.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What’s wrong with him handing over some of his $ 40 million if he’s so bothered? 🤷‍♂️

Normalize just utilizing ‘aid’ rather than ‘handouts’.

WEFpuppet

flying half-way round the world to pick up an award and lecture people about climate change 🤦‍♂️

Acting not paying the bills?

Idris Elba is one of the world's great actors. Good to know he and his wife are also great humanitarians.

He feels his brothers and sisters in Mama Africa, they are the most effected from famine and climate change, well-done

Let's see if this plea does any good

Can we get more qualified people to discuss international development than celebrities. No offence to Idris, but he doesn’t have the capacity nor expertise to lead development problems

Go back to movies

We have head this shit before ,it's nosense

Go for it Idris

If u want Davos to lose look what u gotta pull against wtf man

POC POS

Can't believe the WEF turned Stringer Bell. 😳

Let him donate his fortune

No one is stopping him from investing

😂😂☠️☠️Show

He should start by donating all of his money.

Cos I've seen poverty on my 90 inch 8k tv.... Poser

....another paid clown by elites.....

Davos has lost its punch.

One world Government Agency!

Does charity increase or decrease the rate of the poor's breeding?

What's the use of investment,someone gives, politicians steals it...no use

EU SOU POBRE, CRIANÇAS! ME AJUDEM!

If he really wants to help the poor, make a difference, he shouldn't be making friends with the devil in Davos.

Useless posturing.
