A country that is not ready to invest in her citizens, shouldn't be expecting quality workforce, because it's garbage-in-garbage-out, such a country will be heavily dependent on expatriate from other countries to help man certain sectors of their economy since they don't have the human resource.
A country that doesn't develop her citizens, equip them, and create a system where they can get a job after graduating from higher institutions or skill schools should expect less from citizens in national development.

Because when individuals use their own resources to train themselves in transferable skills for international use, they don't consider staying in their country. This is what causes brain drain and socio-economic migration in some countries.

Governments barely establish structures to train and equip citizens. As a result, citizens acquire skills like tech expertise, knowing they can work internationally. They utilize their skills and knowledge to develop international brands rather than establishing businesses in their homeland or contributing to its growth, since better pay awaits abroad.

This is a critical factor for every country's government to address. Prioritizing citizen education and empowerment will encourage citizens to focus on national growth and economic development once equipped.
