Some of your existing industries
were once competitive, but have grown inefficient over the years.
For instance, at Yak's can-opener plant, manufacturing equipment is outdated and
often broken, and managers have not been trained well. The workers are paid well,
but they can't produce can openers efficiently. So the can openers cost more
to produce than they would fetch on the export market.
To upgrade your industries,
you must finance the purchase of equipment and training from outside the country
with hard currency. But the head of your central bank reminds you that your whole
problem is that there isn't enough hard currency.
How will you get the hard
currency to upgrade your industries?
