Bottlenecks in Land Supply: Government or Developers to Blame? Case Solution

A few of developers that are big, hence, have the power to affect costs, property supply and, consequently. The result is a deficit of high costs, properties, and an average unit size that's smaller than that of other nations.
This is just an excerpt. This case is about GLOBAL BUSINESS
