Paypal does work in your country as you can use it for purchases.


However the option to receive paypal payments is sadly not available in Madagascar.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.

Sadly its against Paypal rules to try and use another countries Paypal account and it would not work for you.
