The elected government of the country has taken several steps that have improved the economics and overall condition of the country. This can be identified by the fact that the World Bank has quoted the country among the top improving nations of the region as per the improving GDP of the country. It is linked to several steps that the government of the country has taken in order to secularize and improve the economic activities of the country.
The GDP of the country has increased to over $ 45 billion over the years and this has mainly to do with the reforms of the government in the agricultural and service providing sector however; the manufacturing sector of the country still lags behind and the government is keen to also improve this sector by inviting and attracting direct foreign investments.(bank, 2013).............
