    I think that the country needs to be in the position where they can control the FDI, in other words, they have to attract the foreign countries' investors in many area of industries.

    Having a FDI on what the investors think they can have most profit. It may not be the same industry that the country who is getting a FDI wants to improve on.

    In the long run, in order to trigger the spillover or synergy effect, the country needs to have a specific and long term economic growth plan so that they know what industry needs FDI. I think that a country that is getting a FDI needs to diversify to attract foreign investors and more importantly they (government) needs to have a long term economic plans.
