Outsourcing/Foreign Investment


Many people believe that outsourcing brings more negative effects than positive. But really, there are a lot of positive outcomes from outsourcing. Although most of the hired workers get paid low wages, they are still getting a job and much needed money. Without these outsourced businesses, many of the workers would not have jobs, and would be worse off than they are now. Outsourcing also helps the spread of goods and materials, and the connection of different countries. Still, we need to watch how much we outsource.

Foreign investment is one of the best things to bring prosperity to a developing country. When a developed company invests in the infrastructure to produce raw materials in another country, they can open many possibilities for the people living in that developing country. The investors might hire some of the people there, giving them jobs. They might even train them, giving them an education. Some investing companies will build airports and shipping ports in order to ship the material they are investing in to other countries. These acts can bring about a lot of possibilities for the future of the developing country.
