After an initial investigation the following points have come to light:

1.The Kantaka government is keen to attract foreign direct investment(FDI)and offer tax concessions to businesses which bring investment funds into the country.It is likely that PMU would need to borrow a substantial amount of money if it were to set up independently.However,the investment funds required would be considerably smaller if it went into a joint venture.

2.Given the past experiences of poor quality education offered by joint ventures between small local private institutions and overseas institutions,the Kantaka government has been reluctant to approve degrees from such institutions.Also the government has not allowed graduates from these institutions to work in national or local government,or in nationalised organisations.

3.Over the past two years the Kantaka currency has depreciated against other currencies,but economic commentators believe that this may not continue for much longer.

4.A large proportion of PMU's academic success is due to innovative teaching and learning methods,and high quality research.The teaching and learning methods used in Kantaka's educational institutions are very different.Apart from the larger private and government run universities,little academic research is undertaken elsewhere in Kantaka's education sector.

Required:

Discuss the benefits and disadvantages of PMU entering into a joint venture instead of setting up independently in Kantaka.As part of your discussion,consider how the disadvantages can be mitigated and the additional information PMU needs in order to make its decision.
