    I’d say the Philippines or Burkina Faso, especially Burkina Faso because of its history with socialism and the newest leadership of the country being an educated citizen and a doing some what leftist policies so far.

      On top of all of that the reason why the current leader has so much popular support is because he talks about Sankara positively.

      He also has people in his leadership who have literally written (positively framed) theory, analysis and lit on Sankara’s life.

      They are fully aware of his legacy and cherish it.

      Edit: Oh yeah more importantly they brought justice to the person who killed Sankara.

      Burkina Faso may end up adopting something similar to the socialist model that Libya had before Gaddafi was murdered. The Philippines i am very skeptical about. I would suggest rather that Haiti has a lot of revolutionary potential at the moment, and that the political and social situation there is essentially already a revolutionary one. Attempts at western intervention have so far not succeeded, but the window of opportunity will not stay open forever. All they are lacking is an organized vanguard party with a clear political-ideological goal and a strategy for seizing power.
