The movie Hotel Rwanda focuses on the story of a man named Paul Rusesabagina, a manager of a European-owned hotel in Rwanda. By creating a seret refuge camp in the hotel, Rusesabagina was able to help save the lives of 1, 200 Tutsis from the Hutu’s during the brutal genocide in 1994. The gist of the film is depicted in the underlying genius of how the film was able to portray a hellish event without using too much distressing scenes just to be able to show the audience the brutality of the genocide, the narrative of political criticism and comments from the lines spoken by the artists served as a replacement for these scenes leaving it to one’s imagination on how severe the true event was.
Many social issues were touched in the film. For one, the indifference of the West towards the African lives is believed to be the reason behind the genocide. (Theis, 2004). Another is that the social structure as to who should be on top and who should have the power is discussed all through out the film since the genocide was planned by the Hutu’s long before to take in effect the “one man-one vote” which served as an opportunity for them to kill as many Tutsi Christians. (“Hotel Rwanda”), this is not only in a political sense but in a religious perspective as well. Many of these issues exist not only in Africa but also in other countries which remain unresolved.
One of the most straining parts of the movie is the presence of the peacekeepers and their inability to intervene because they were told not to and this makes the situation more devastating for the hopeful Tutsi. The tension showed in the film address the inability of some to be able to help in giving out solutions to the problem even if it already requires personal judgment. What really makes me uncomfortable is the inequality shown in the film and the brutal solutions done. It is also frustrating to see that while most of the foreign nationals were saved from the holocaust many of the Tutsi are left hoping to be saved by the intervention of others and relying only in the abilities of one man.
This film allowed me to reflect more on my social responsibilities the way it has challenged Paul to help his family and still be able continue to saving lives of others without questioning personal judgment. Moreover, the film was able to show me how one man can make a difference during desperate times and create measures that may appear as inevitable to others.

1. [15 marks] A student surveyed 49 workers to obtain details on their annual income (from earnings),
whether they had a post-school qualification (1 if yes, 0 if no), and their age. These data are in the
worksheet called Q1_income
(a) Using Excel, carry out a t-test to determine if incomes of workers with post-school qualifications
exceed those of workers without qualifications. Be careful to state your null and alternative
hypothesis and to justify the level of significance you choose (Hint: consider the scenarios
where Type I-Type II errors might occur). (9 marks)
(b) Discuss whether the evidence in (a) proves or disproves the claim that education has a positive
causal effect on worker productivity (which is picked up in the labour market by more productive
workers being paid more since economic theory tells us that workers are paid according to their
marginal productivity). (6 marks)
2. [50 marks] Lotteries (such as Lotto in NZ) have become important sources of revenue for
governments. Many people have criticised lotteries, however, referring to them as a tax on the poor
and uneducated. In an examination of the issue, a random sample of 100 adults was asked how much
they spend on lottery tickets and was interviewed about various socioeconomic variables. The
purpose of this study is to test the four following beliefs:
(i) Relatively uneducated people spend more on lotteries than do relatively educated people.
(ii) Older people buy more lottery tickets than younger people.
(iii)People with more children spend more on lotteries than people with fewer children.
(iv)Relatively poor people spend a greater proportion of their income on lotteries than relatively rich
people.
The data for this question is in the worksheet called Q2_Lotteries.
