All these areas are dominated by minds, who aim to take the country to the apex of success. However, if such minds are only confined to the events occurring in their own country, will they be able to succeed? Success requires learning. One has to learn from the success and failures of the other countries. We live in a globalized world. rnAll the countries are inter-dependant on each other for success or failures.
