Are you planning to develop the Economy using Market Economic Principles or Socialist Economic Principles? What is the proposed Economic Model? Is it a Social Market Economy or Socialist Market Economy? If there's any article please mention. Thankyou
Thank you for your inquiry. We will adhere to best practices of all models and our model will have three stakeholders. State, Private and Cooperative. Market alone cannot make decisions and that is what is happening now. Market allows monopolies, oligopolies, and Collusions. Our economic model will not let that happen. You can call it by any name but in some countries, the model we follow is called Social Solidarity Economy. It is up to the observer to call it in whatever name but we ensure economic democracy. Regards
Glad to see professional from various fields are getting together to form a framework to take SL economy to an advanced knowledge based one from the present subsistence economy mainly shouldered by poor blue collar workers like housemaids (this is despite SL having more than 100 years of university education). One thing I see in their discussions is Research and Development (R and D) by which I hope they mean technology transfer. That is transferring already established industries/technologies/services/ from developed/rich countries. This will eventually create a knowledge base in SL from which R & D can proceed. All technologically developed countries in Asia (Japan, South Korea, China, India etc) first did this tech transfer and now after several decades they are doing their own R & D. To start R&D without a proper knowledge and tach base and purpose is like trying to run without being able to walk.
Thank you for your compliments. Once we take over the government, we shall implement all what we have pledged. R&D is a key to the sustainable development of a country. Regards
