Greater than three thousand industries, particularly the garment business, have closed down and are going. There isn’t any new employment, 1000’s of employees have left and are going to the villages. However there are not any assets within the village. A state of human hatred has been created. There isn’t any hope of making new employment alternatives on this price range.

However when you cease them, the trail of corruption will probably be closed! So understandably that was not achieved.
