The Economist is kidding and do not know that Mahama do not know anything just want to be president at all cost out of greedy.President did not know his left,right,back,front and center and what the economist is telling Mahama is a joke to Mahama because Mahama knew how terrible he negotiator in both the fail STX Korea housing project and the three billion Chinese Bank Loan that has cost Ghana tax payer almost four billion interest and all that he is thinking is steal from Ghanaians by inflating both Military planes purchase and Cuba train Ghanaian doctors and he is happy to hide the price of (4) four helicopter purchase from Russia because he has back to his old ways now that he is in control of the country he is going to steal big.

It is always easy to compare Ghana to countries such as Malaysia,Indian ,Korea and etc.But has anybody care to ask if the citizens of those countries evade their tax obligations,bring him down attitude,paying employees poorly and seeking their personal interest ahead of their countries.Ghanaian businessmen are only interested in their business profit and not the country .Until we all change our attitude and think about Ghana first we shall always continue to struggle.In those referred countries they enforce their country laws without any interference as it is done in Ghana.When laws are being enforced you will hear the same people say 'Do it with human face' if those countries were doing the same thing as Ghanaians are doing their countries would not have reached where they are today.No wonder Ghanaians who don't want to change are always having problems in other countries when caught by their laws complaining of mistreatment thinking they are living in Ghana.

The call for a 10-year strategic plan is a moot one.

This has to be a national plan arrived at through consultation with the political parties, identifiable groups and the public. The National Development Commission should be empowered to prepare such a plan which should be subject to parliamentary approval.

When governments are slow to act entrepreneurs and leading business personalities need to take the lead. Finding new markets is one of the key strategies in business. Ghanaians can find markets all over the world, but specialized markets can become very lucrative for Ghanaian business operators. In the US there is a specialized and positive disposed market for Ghana in the African-American market. Joint- Ventures that are well conceived and targeted can do very well in the African-American market that has hundreds of millions of dollars to spend. The African-American market has more money to spend than the Canadian market. The soundest way to approach the market is to produce products in Ghana and sell products in the US. Any Ghanaian with products to sell may contact me: seymourgray89@yahoo.com.

ONLY TECHNOLOGY, INNOVATION, DISCOVERY TO CURIOUSITY AND INVENTION AT THE PRIVATE SECTOR WOULD STIMULATE AND INCREASE ECONOMIC GROWTH IN THE COUNTRY.

MALAYSIA, SOUTH KOREA AND SINGAPORE WERE ABLE TO ACCELERATE ECONOMIC GROWTH, BECAUSE OF THE PRACTICAL AND INNOVATIVE SKILLS OF THEIR EDUCATED AND TRAINED WORKFORCE IN THEIR VARIOUS COUNTRIES.

BUYING AND SELLLING ARE NOT THE ANSWERS TO THE PROMOTION OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR.

WE NEED THE BRAINS OF THE SO CALLED EDUCATED TO TURN THE WHEELS OF INDDUSTRIALIZATION WITH INDUSTRIAL OUTPUT.

WHAT DOES THE LEARNED PhD MAN UNDEWRSTANDS THE WORD ''IMITATION'':

THE NATRURAL SCIENCE AND ENGINERRING TEXT BOOKS TELLS US TO INNOVATE AND NOT TO WATCH AND PRAY.

LET US STOP REAPEATING THE SAME STUÜID MISTAKES.

IT'S ALL ABOUT PERFORMANCE AND COMPETENCE:

WHO IS AN ''ECONOMIST''' AND WHAT ROLE DO THEY PLAY THEY IN THE NATIONS ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT.

WE DO NOT STILL HAVE DYNAMIC INDUSTRIES AND PROCESSING PLANTS FOR INDUSTRIAL OUTPUT IN THE COUNTRY.

IT IS TIME GHANA DEFINES THE ROLE OF THEIR ECONOMISTS IN THE COUNTRY.
