Investment in Higher Education in the Developing Countries: Why Don’t We Learn our Lessons?!

Ali Mansouri Writer, Researcher, Consultant Published on December 13, 2016 Investment, by definition, should bring back good return (money) and be successful; otherwise there is no need to invest and waste your money. This is true to some extent but there are other considerations to be taken into account. This general rule of investment has been undergoing many restrictions throughout the human history. This is why we have “regulators” to look into how companies, firms, corporations and all the other sorts of institutions conduct their business. There are now very detailed laws and regulations in the developed countries in order to prevent cheating, dishonesty and corruption. And in spite of all these “regulators”, “regulations” and “laws”, we hear of scandals here and there. But businesses do not feel they have “immunity” to operate as they wish, against the law and against the genuine interests of customers and the society. They are caught from time to time and are penalized; sometimes with very hefty fines. Page 1 of 5
