Malaysia should be in official recession--BubbleDude22 (talk) 23:26, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Where can I find information on what countries are in recession or not? I've looked over the IMF website but I can't seem to find where they mention this. I'm sure the map is in need of some revision as the first quarter is now over. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ghal416 (talk • contribs) 16:30, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

New Zealand is now in an official recession, the GDP declines 0.2 in the second quarter. Someone should add it. --121.72.176.80 (talk) 07:50, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Australia is now in recession. Bmgoau (talk) 11:07, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Choice of colours

I feel it's a bit misleading to colour countries red when they are in slowdown, not recession. From glancing at the map it's pretty difficult to tell how bad a given country is. This isn't helped by 1. the fairly limited spread of colours used and 2. the worst color (dark red) in some ways looking a little better than the 2nd worse (pure red).

I quickly mocked up a version for my own personal use which shows that, recoloured, it's not quite as doom-filled as the original implies. (Not proposing these particular colours be used) —Preceding unsigned comment added by ZoFreX (talk • contribs) 03:02, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Good map, but anyone came to view and notice the positive economic growth rates are in oil-rich Middle East countries, the least developed nations of western Africa, and even in middle South America to have high poverty rates? The effects of a global recession would drastically affect these regions of the third world as well, from dropping oil prices and real estate busts in Dubai to the worsened standards of living for most in Peru and Bolivia. An economic downturn to span all six continents should affect fast-growth countries of China and Russia, and now the European Union copes to save each of the member-states' own treasuries from going to the fate of Iceland's. + 71.102.2.206 (talk) 21:53, 26 April 2009 (UTC)


Switzerland

Switzerland is now in recession ! (source : http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/20090602/switzerland-swiss-economy-recession.htm) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.2.7.212 (talk) 14:09, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Poland the only EU country with growth. Belarus in recession

It seems that the map is wrong/out of date - according to http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/world/147688/poland-eyes-gulf-investment-hub-role "Poland is the only member of the EU to have posted economic growth so far this year -- output grew by 0.4 percent in the first quarter compared with the final three months of 2008.". This is the latest data I think. Also, according to this - http://www.kyivpost.com/world/44404 - belarus is in recession, though no official data is available. 85.221.202.5 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:25, 3 July 2009 (UTC).

This map is misleading on several articles and should be removed until updated. Poland should definitely be in blue, and so should i think China and India. -Chumchum7 (talk) 10:05, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

France and Germany

This needs to be updated. France and Germany are officially no longer in recession. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/08/13/AR2009081300504.html 72.224.76.224 (talk) 03:55, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
