...classes to do something tangible in this arena, it seems that it is up to the army to defend the country against lack of education, for there is no factor that is more important to the well-being of a nation than human resource and no negligence worse than ignoring its development. Make it mandatory for government and army officers at all levels to do stints at various educational institutions in relation to their skills and Pakistan national requirements. A uniform system of education should be introduced and this is really very important gradually to eradicate the problems multiplicity of systems creates as pointed out earlier. Make it a mandatory requirement for various degree programmes that the candidates, after taking their exams, shall spend a specified period of timein teaching at assigned institutions. (These assignments should be given in a judicious and practical manner). Govt. have to take specific steps to end cramming system in education from Govt. as well as Private sector and implement system of practical work, so that every student can gain more knowledge by doing research on that specific topic or subject, unlike “Ratta”(cramming) system where student have to memorize everything for short period of time which Teacher gives...

...(iv) Your country is in a recession. You feel that a policy of exchange rate depreciation will stimulate aggregate demand and bring the country out of the recession. This essay examines the effectiveness of using exchange rate depreciation to stimulate aggregate demand in order to bring a fictional country, Australand, out of recession. It will explain how a policy of exchange rate depreciation can increase aggregate demand and how this will stimulate economic activity and bring Australand out of recession. The process of depreciating the currency will be explained as well as possible ramifications of this policy. Alternative options to increase aggregate demand will also be explored. A recession is technically when an economy has experienced two successive quarters of negative gross domestic product (GDP) growth. For this to happen the total amount of goods and services produced by a country must contract on a quarter by quarter basis for six months or more. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7495340.stm) It therefore stands to reason that by increasing the total amount of goods and services Australand produces, known as aggregate output, will bring Australand out of recession. Blanchard and Sheen (2009 p39) state that in the short run the main determinent of aggregate output is demand and that changes in demand can lead to an increase in output. Aggregate demand is the total quantity demanded for output at a given price level and it is therefore necessary to...

...Sending foreign aid to under developed countries such as Afghanistan is doing more harm than good, and it should be discontinued; the practice has caused Afghanistan countries to become vulnerable to inflation, currency fluctuations, corruption, and civil unrest. I've learned that proper education, government control, and environmental development would help the poor become more prosperous and independent. I feel that this practice is a lot more beneficial than sending over government aid. Although there are some pros I feel that the cons may out weigh the pros in this particular situation. In this paper I'm going to attempt to give examples of how foriegn aid has both hindered and helped the government in Afghanistan make a turnaround, however some of the aspects may not look so good in the future. Also I will discuss the influences both negative and postive the government has on foreign aid and corruption. Right now the Afghan economy is in a very vulnerable state because they have been at war for almost 35 years. Afghanistan is about to go into an uphill battle because they have several factors that are heavy impactors that are affecting the country. For example their are still many political and security uncertainties. Their was also a presidential election that took place back in April of 2014. Their is a very vast amount of corruption in the government as well as bad governance all together. However in light of these little pitfalls the economy as well as the security...

...ARE AMERICAN CARS BETTER THAN FORIEGN? Are American Cars better than Foreign ? University of Phoenix Author Note This paper was prepared for Business Communication and Critical thinking BCOM/275 taught by instructor Goodwyn. Abstract Are American cars Like GM , Ford and Chrysler better in terms of reliability and value than the foreign makes. Also should we buy them over the Toyota, Honda other foreign makes because they are American Cars. The paper compares the differences and how the foreign cars stacks up and discusses about some fallacies argument like "you buy American car and help create more jobs".

(Newman R. 2009) published an article on USNews.com " 5 Reasons to Buy an American Car" and their their quality are better and now rivals the best from foreign makes like Japan. Newna R. is referring to car built by General Motors and Chrysler and comparing with the foreign cars by built by Toyota and Honda. Here the Newman R. is backing up his information by using reliable and credited sources like the J.D Power and Associates and Consumers Report, however the data he is referring to is outdated, hence lacks the validity and credibility. ...

...UNDERSTANDING THE SUBPRIME LENDING The term "subprime" refers to the credit status of the borrower, which is being less than ideal. Subprime lending is a general term that refers to the practice of making loans to borrowers who do not qualify for the best market interest rates because of their deficient credit history. According to the U.S. Department of Treasury guidelines issued in 2001, "Subprime borrowers typically have weakened credit histories that include payment delinquencies i.e. non-payment of the mortgage, and possibly more severe problems such as charge-offs, judgments, and bankruptcies. They may also display reduced repayment capacity as measured by credit scores, debt-to-income ratios, or other criteria that may encompass borrowers with incomplete credit histories." This is when the borrowers have a poor credit history that is they are bad borrowers. Subprime lending is also called B-Paper, near-prime, or second chance lending, as the borrowing is done to customers with a poor credit history or no credit history without any security in return of the money lending. Subprime lending encompasses a variety of credit instruments, including subprime mortgages, subprime car loans, and subprime credit cards, among others. A subprime loan is offered at a rate higher than A-paper loans due to the increased risk. Subprime lenders To access this increasing market, lenders often take on risks associated...

...How China rises What lessons can be drawn from China's spectacular and sustained economic growth? As Hu Jintau remarked at the 17th Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, the period since the previous Congress five years ago has been extraordinary. China's economic achievements have been arousing not only astonishment and admiration but also some anxiety. In the past twelve months alone, The People's Republic of China (PRC) has overtaken Canada as the biggest source of imports to the USA, and overtaken the USA as the biggest source of imports to the European Union. Concern about the low level of investment in Africa has been displaced by concern about the effects of the high level of Chinese investment in Africa; there is now even anxiety about the effects of investment by Chinese state-owned firms into the Western economies. The Chinese Communist Party is also expressing concerns. The themes of its 2007 Congress included protection of the environment and the achievement of social harmony. According to some estimates, China has displaced the USA as the world's biggest source of greenhouse gases. Inequality is rising as fast as pollution: China now has over 800 individuals with a personal wealth of more than a hundred million US dollars each, up from 500 in 2006; while the average income in rural areas of China is 480 dollars per year. Made in China. Hu Jintau's remark on the extraordinary nature of the most recent years can be faulted in only one sense: China has...

...In order to retain feudalism as a tool of an old colonialist for invasion, the French imperialist invaded the country and reign Laos with the aim to take it as their colony. They praised a throne and the King of Laos to live up with the French yoke and used it as a mask hiding their invasion. The French colonialist printed out Indochinese paper money and metal currency such as: Kiphuanam (spiny head) Kip coints and Bee coints to release and circulate in Laos. Since 1893 Indochinese Kip currency had been uesd in 3 countries namely: Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia so as to facilitate the furnishing of their army and administration. The economy developed slightly during this period of time, there was an exchange between producers and consumers, and the budget revenue derived mainly from duty and tax collection with some figures as follows: - 1896 : 142,770 kip - 1897 : 182,348 kip - 1898 : 189,522 kip - 1899 : 201,409 kip - 1900 : 256,457 kip Of which, the opium sale shared about 30 - 40 % of the total revenue. In brief, till this period of time our country did not have bank, there was only a tresury. III.
