how leadership and its culture affect the country's future

Recently, a country announced to ban the export of chickens due to the shortage of supply and also to meet the domestic demands.

But, how does it happen? It is easier to blame the war between Russia-Ukraine, the pandemic, or the inflation. Unfortunately, this is not the whole story about it. It all boils down to the nation's policy that was implemented for decades - subsidizing.

For a party to remain in power to control the government, subsidies are a method that has proven effective to win over voters but also can be a nightmare to the nation's balance sheet, for example, in Kazakhstan and Sri Lanka.

If leaders have put people's interests above personal and party interests, it's a blessing to the nation. Else, the only people will suffer without any hope.
