go bankrupt. In this
case, the foreign firm is
a monopoly and will

and training in the host country
It is said that the multinational set aside jobs
requiring knowledge and business skills for the

assigned in the host country will require a lower
level in this regard. Therefore the work force and
managers of the receiving country gain no training
or knowledge.

located in United States
and has agreements with
subcontractors in Asia
where they make and sell
their products worldwide.
