Q.8
In the final analysis, the wealth of a country is based upon its power to
develop and to effectively utilise the innate capacities of its people. It takes
skilled human agents to discover and exploit natural resources, to mobilise
capital, to develop technology, to produce goods, and to carry out trade.
Indeed, if a country is unable to develop its human resources, it can not
build anything else whether it be a modern political system, a sense of
national unity, or a prosperous economy.
