Chemicals are substances that have a distinct molecular composition and are typically produced through various chemical processes. Chemicals can be grouped based on their molecular composition and structural characteristics. The Middle East is home to large-scale petrochemical complexes that produce a wide range of petrochemicals, including ethylene, propylene, polyethylene, polypropylene, methanol, ammonia, and more. The chemical industry refers to the sector of the economy that is involved in the production, manufacturing, and distribution of chemicals and chemical products. Madagascar's economy is largely based on agriculture, mining, fishing, and forestry. The country is one of the world's largest producers of vanilla, cloves, and ylang-ylang. Madagascar also exports significant quantities of coffee, cocoa, sugar, and textiles. Despite its rich natural resources, the country struggles with poverty and underdevelopment, relying on foreign aid and international investment to stimulate growth. The financial system in Madagascar is still underdeveloped. While there are several banks and microfinance institutions operating in the country, access to financial services, especially in rural areas, remains limited.
