Question 2
Gazamia is a small country in the southern hemisphere facing great challenges in developing its economy. The country was once a leader in diamond mining and exporting. However, after 30 years of continuous mining, the diamond mines have been depleted and the nation’s economy has plummeted to the lowest level in 40 years. With too much reliance on diamond mining in the last 30 years, Gazamia has largely neglected the development of other industries including agriculture, manufacturing and services, although infrastructure and education of all levels have been well developed and invested in. The leaders of Gazamia devised a plan to reinvigorate its once-prosperous nation including providing a wide range of incentives to attract foreign investment.
Using the Gazamia scenario and any assumptions that are deemed necessary and appropriate, discuss the opportunities for an Australian company to expand its business to Gazamia as a part of its internationalisation strategy and the possible risks involved in such an endeavour.
