Third World Business Practices that are Contra-Productive

1. When not making enough money, they raise the prices.
2. The whole country will go on strike against government.
3. Contracts are not enforceble with Foreigners, they local can easily not perform.
4. The people who work as Mayors, and Politicians own the water purificaiton companies and are not going to clean up the water and lose their business.
5. When you make an agreement, think it is solid, the Third World Person worries they may lose money and raises the price again. It can take a year before you can enter into a contract and even then, if the person think you are earning they willl renig on the contract.
6. No queues or lines at businesses and no respect for clients.
7. There is no repeat customer mentality with foreigners.

Problems Caused by Other Countries

1. NGO and Missionaries come and inflate prices.
2. Foreigners come as the solution, not as their equals with more knowledge.
