| The quality of the national
business environment is shaped by government, universities
and schools, infrastructure, standard-setting agencies,
other organizations, and the private sector.

quality of management and business education. In terms
of overall infrastructure, however, the country has

placed eighth from the bottom in terms of costs imposed
on businesses by bribes to influence government policies,
laws, and regulations.
