Imagine that you are an executive with a multinational corporation that wants to open a manufacturing facility in an underdeveloped country. You have been assigned the responsibility of preparing a report on the suitability of a particular country for investment. Your company is concerned with the investment climate in this country, but is equally interested in the political stability, social and cultural environment since it will be making a substantial financial commitment. Your corporation views this is not only an opportunity to make a profit, but also as a humanitarian effort to help improve the standard of living in a lesser-developed country. Country of choice, is Vietnam. In form of report.
Competition, Stability, and Civil Society:
