	Madagascar is currently divided into six autonomous provinces (faritany mizakatena), and subdivided into 22 regions (faritra), the latter created in 2004. The regions will be the highest subdivision level when the provinces are dissolved in accordance with the results of the 4 April 2007 referendum, which means in theory by 4 October 2009.

			'''Development'''

			Since the mid-1990s Madagascar has followed a World Bank and IMF-led policy of
			privatisation and liberalisation which has placed the country on a slow and steady growth
			path. Agriculture, including fishing and forestry, is a mainstay of the economy,
			accounting for more than one-quarter of the GDP and employing 80% of the population.
			Exports of apparel have boomed in recent years primarily due to duty-free access to the
			US. Deforestation and erosion, aggravated by the use of firewood as the primary source
			of fuel, are serious concerns. Madagascar is plagued by periodic cyclones, floods,
			drought, and locust infestation. Poverty reduction and combating corruption will be the
			centrepieces of economic policy for the next few years.

			Madagascar is a classified as a highly indebted poor country by the World Bank.

			Children make up more than half of the population, and half of them live on less than
			$1 a day.
