Between Norwegians, Swedes, Finns and Russians who likes cold best ? Must be Russians right?No need. We already found a great vacation spot during the off-times of the year

Woah 2015 Philippines is richer than 2016 moldova, I always thought whole of Europe is rich.
Syria from Factbook:
The World Factbook
Reconcile your statements of private consumption with 50% of the country in some "need" or another and over 10% refugees.
Furthermore, if you would have scrolled down the page you would see data directly at odds with your statements of increased gdp/capita
$5,100 (2011 est.)
$5,100 (2010 est.)
$5,200 (2010 est.)
If you would perhaps have been more experienced in data mining you could have come to the inevitable and quite logical conclusion that data in there isn't worth that much as meaningful data collection has been stopped for the past 4 years and whatever there is there are mere estimates, which like outlined above are difficult to reconcile with objective things that are happening in the country.
Additionaly, once you go a little deeper in into "infrastructure of the report" you find such admissions:

So, rough approximations from academia in their ivory towers done at a time of war when noone relevant in making of those assumptions even visited.
Why is it that every single post of yours feels the need to attack my person or skills or knowledge.
Most GDP figures are estimates.
We are never certain because of multiple factors. Hell, the IMF even states multiple times they estimate the GDP of countries as they never have clear access to figures. How do you think we know North Korea's GDP? We don't, we're estimating what it might be.
The IMF estimates that Syria's GDP has went from $60 billion (2010) to $77 billion (2014), If you feel you are more competent and intelligent than a group of International Economists, then please feel free to contact the IMF and let them know how you feel.

As in the October 2014 WEO, data for Syria are excluded from 2011 onward because of the uncertain political situation.

Why are those two mafias so interested with Moldova, the population is too small plus there's nothing much going on in there?Moldova is not a country ,it's an enclave where the population (remaining one as 50% fled) is held hostage by two mafia organisations,one pretending to be pro Russia,the other one pro West.In fact they're just robbing the country dry.A few months ago a billion dollars dissaperead,and they have a 6 billion $ GDP.Ofcourse,nobody know "nuffin'.

That's a really sad case for the country.Because they're local mafias living on the back of 3 million suckers ?

Even the link which you call "difficult" (it's just a chart) has missing entries from 2010 onward and you want to argue?
You found something on wiki, saw IMF tagged to it, came back here all triumphant how i surely cannot know more than a group of economists (let's leave that aside, if economists knew anything a crisis or two might be averted- if you're an economist and this is insulting, it's meant to be)
Now, me knowing the situation in Syria from 2011 onward, i was pretty sure no data collection was being gathered (if embassies evacuate, there wil be no IMF paper pusher calculating anything on the ground), so i decided to look a bit deeper into your links and voila, no data.
Summa summarum, IMF estimates are invalid by their own admission and with it, everything you've based on them and presented in this thread.
