Question

Read the following passage and answer the question given below

In developing countries of the world, the development of infrastructure is very slow. Power supply, network of transport routes, industrial and commercial services, educational facilities are all components that are the skeleton that gives shape and strength to economic business. And the immediate return from that is low. The economy of most developing countries is inefficient and unbalanced. Agriculture provides at least 50% to 90% employment; On the other hand some basic items, e.g. Oil and some rare minerals are becoming increasingly expensive. These countries cannot buy it. Mineral fuels like copper, zinc, tin, etc. are becoming very expensive. Developing countries cannot compete with developed countries in purchasing these goods. It is said that creating potential hydropower in the tropics will solve all these problems, but the cost of building it is huge.
