Reset or Not?

 

On Maya Tau (“MT”), more than 600,000 households have dropped into the bottom 40% of the population. That’s a major blow to the Supreme Council. (MT is a nation in the star Proximas Centauri).

The country has about 7 million households and at least 10% have dropped below the bottom 40% threshold limit of about 5,000 MT Units.

The Economic Council (“EC”) has drawn-up a “Maya Tau: Resetting the Economy” initiative. There are several reset agendas including digital economy; new technology; good governance; sustainability and a host of other possibilities. The EC worked with experts, industry groups and the MT Government officials for this document. The initiative is EC’s “independent study” and has not been endorsed yet.

The real problem or the “elephant in the room” is MT’s affirmative action programme of raising living standards of the majority group. The problem is that there are no elephants in Maya Tau – whatever is left are pigmy elephants – a dying breed!

The plan is to revive an economy devastated by Pokemon-19. It has elements of reform, and without reform revival will remain nascent. So many experts believe this is the way forward.

Other issues not addressed by EC include MT’s education system; religious politics; corruption; brain drain of the brightest citizens; enforcement agencies and infrastructure. Some are really “touchy” subjects which the ruling elite are involved themselves in some of its practices.

But the key belief is that a reset is possible like a computer reset or a video game reset. In a video game reset, one could re-start a game at any point, and play until one wins the game eventually. In a computer re-boot, it requires a total shutdown and then a restart. Can they do that for MT’s economy? Not likely!

Political forces on MT are too engrossed on retaining power rather than focus on the economy. In fact, a long period to overcome Pokemon-19 is most helpful to the ruling government! Many forces, however, are aligned to oppose this undesirable outcome. Hence, a rear-guard action or the so-called “reset” – whatever that means!

The solution is in the face of the Maya Tau government – respect the people; restore democratic institutions; start a consensus/ confidence building program of reforms with revival and revision of affirmative actions that are now targeted at needs rather than a group. Then more investments will flow from foreign and local investors.

 So, is it a reset, restart, reform, revival or none of the above?
