Directions (Q.Nos. 126-133) Read the following passage carefully and answer the given questions. Certainwords/phrases have been given in bold to help you lo cate them while an swer ing some of the ques tions.

Though global multinatinals account for only 2% of the world’s jobs, they own or orchestrate the supply chains thataccount for over 50% of world trade, they make up 40% of the value of the West’s stockmarkets; and they own mostof the world’ intellectual property. Although the idea of being at the top of the food chain makes these companiessound all-conquering, rickety and overextended are often more fitting adjectives.

Companies became obsessed with internationalising their customers’ production, capital and management. In2016, multinatinals’ cross-border investment fell by 10-15%, the share of trade accounted for by cross-broder supply chains has stagnated since 2007 and the proportion of sales that Western firms make outside their home regionhas shrunk.

They are in retreat. To understand why this is, consider the three parties that made the boom possible. Investors,the ‘headquarters countries’ in which global firms are domiciles, and the ‘host countries’ that receivedmultinational investment. Each thought that multinational firms would provide superior financial or economicperformance.

Investors saw a huge potential for economies of scale. As China, India and the Soviet Union opened up, and asEurope liberalised itself into a single market, firms could sell this same product to more people. Moreover, they saw ‘geographical arbitrage’ i.e., from the rich world they could get management, capital, brands and technology andfrom the emerging world they could get cheap workers and raw materials as well as lighter rules on pol lu tion.

These advantages led investors to think global firms would grow faster and make higher profits. That was true for awhile, not today. The profits of the top 700-odd multinational firms have dropped by 25% over the past five years,according to FTSE, an index firm. The weakness of many currencies against the dollar is part of the story; the slump in commodity prices, and thus the profits of oil firms, mining firms and the like is a factor too. Another 10% ofdeterioration is due to the collapse of banks. Individual bosses will often blame one-off factors, currency moves, theeconomic collapse of Venezuela currency swaps and the like can be thought of, a depression in Europe, acrackdown on graft in China, and so on.

But the deeper explanation is that both the advantages of scale and those of arbitrage have worn away. As a result,firms with a domestic focus are winning market share by 2%. In Brazil, two local banks, have trounced globallenders what about the ‘headquarters countries’? In the 1990s and 2000s, they wanted their national champions togo global in order to become bigger and brainier.

The mood changed after the financial crisis. Multinational firms started to be seen as agents of inequality. Theycreated jobs abroad, but not at home. As a result, the tapestry of rules designed to help business globally is fraying. Takeovers of western firms now often come with strings attached by governments to safeguard local jobs andplants. There are gathering clouds in host countries as well. China has been turning the screws on foreign firms ina push for ‘Indigenous innovation’.

Bosses say that more products have to be sourced locally and intellectual property often ends up handed over tolocal partners. Strategic industries, including the internet, are out of bounds to foreign investment. Many fear thatChina’s approach will be mimicked around the developing world, forcing ultinational firms to invest more locallyand create more jobs- a mirror image of the pressure placed on them at home.

Directions (Q.Nos. 144-150) Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given. Certainwords/phrases are given in bold to help you lo cate them while an swer ing some of the ques tions.

Intended to give its workers more rest, this year, the Taiwanese government has brought about some labouramendments, such as the ‘one fixed day off, one flexible day off’. It has steadily garnered raked reactions in themedia.

News of businesses moving to enact measures to meet the new regulations has emerged, including price hikesand reduced business hours. Reports, such as popular food chains upping their prices have coloured media. Onthe other hand, Taiwan’s two major convenience stores denied reports that stores would be closing over theweekend in response to the regulations.

The latest circumstances only presented examples of how the new holiday policy would hinder Taiwanese business’ operations, pose price hikes and create a more difficult environment for Taiwanese nationals to go about their dailylives in an aleady wage-stagnant economy.

Increased cost are inevitable. But should it be looked upon with dis dain and di ver sion? Let us look at the is sue from a dif fer ent per spec tive. For eign ers and tour ists have com mented that the 24-hour con ve nience stores and highqual ity of ser vice have left a pos i tive im pres sion about the coun try. That should be a point of pride for Tai wan, buton the other hand, the new hol i day pol icy also pro vides an op por tu nity to spur change as Tai wan’s laud ablecon ve niences also come along with their own set of burdens.

Many of the everyday conveniences were built upon the hard work and long hours of employees who providedquality and tireless service to the masses. It is understandable that all kinds of enterprises avoid uncertainty as itdoes not bode well for business operations. The new policy provides uncertainty in spades.

But the status quo that businesses have long upheld has not worked for Taiwan in the past decade. No longer havethe long working hours either transferred into benefits for the working people or helped propel Taiwan’s GDP backto the figures during its ‘industrial miracle’ era. Taiwan’s working environment and policies protecting bothenterprises and workers have long needed an overhaul.

While initial reports indicate that the new holiday policy has led to a rise in basic commodity prices. It shouldbecome an opportunity for business to gripe about. They should not in crease prices but fail to in crease staff costsand ad just in fe rior bud get plan ning, ul ti mately fail ing to in crease em ploy ment. This is the easy way to face the newpol icy and for en ter prises to stay afloat in tough times.

It should not, however, continue at the expense of the everyday workers and the economy at large. Increasingemployment and providing adequate overtime pay to keep working hours in check are factors in the goverment’slabour revision efforts last year, which they hope could improve existing working conditions. It’s still too early to saywhether President and his party’s holiday policy would improve working conditions.

Taiwan’s businesses should look out for its employees’ well-being instead of their costs, while the government must similarly look out for businesses and the people at large to ensure effective policy progress. There’s no doubt thatthe Taiwan’s working environment is in need of change, and the new holiday policy provides a platform for that.However, whether it would bring about a good or bad change ultimately is left up to how the key players–businesses, the government and the people-respond.
