QUESTION 8 (If you chose "other" [power criteria], please specify)
*original style preserved with explanations in "[]"*

These days, all powers in whatever category we want to put them aspires to have economic, military and technological power. They also try to influence through their political influence which is evident during the UN sessions where the small powers' votes also matters.
