අපේ රටෙන් හරිහමන් නිශ්පාදන එලියට එන්නෙ නැත්තෙ අපි R&D කරන්නෙ නැති නිසා. අපිට ඕනෙ ගහේ හැදෙන රබර් කිරි මුදවල ශිට් හදල අපනයනය කරනව වගේ ලේබර් ඉන්ටෙන්සිව් වැඩ කරන්න මිසක් නිමි භාණ්ඩ හදන්න නෙවෙයි. ගාමන්ට් උනත් ලේබර් වැඩේ තමයි අපේ ප්රධාන අදායම්මාර්ගය.
Why don't poor countries do R&D?William Maloney
April 16, 2014
Poor countries invest far less in research and development (R&D) as a share of their GDP than rich countries. Even middle income countries often invest well under 0.5%, compared to 3% and above in advanced countries.
This fact poses a profound development mystery, and at the surface, suggests huge missed opportunities. Estimates of the social rates of return to R&D - often above 40% - in advanced countries are so high, as to justify levels of investment in developing countries that are multiples greater than those actually found. The case appears to be particularly strong for poor countries, where R&D is essential to the "absorptive'' or "national learning'' capacity that is needed to exploit technological advance originating from rich countries.
