There is hardly a world market for rice and sugar. No demand means you stop supplying. It's time to switch to other sources of revenues...
Maybe we can try coffee producing, tourism, churning out tech professionals...old ways gotta stop.
One need not sell mere raw product. We are of a habit to sell raw logs, bulk sugar and rice and never manufacturing any of the products that these products could be used that are marketable.
Indeed we can develop coffee but only in the highland regions. We can also develop a fertile chocolate industry and both of these can utilize some of our sugar if we do not sell raw beans of coco and coffee ( if ever we develop such and industry) We also have brazil nuts which cannot get to market among others. The failure to develop alternatives here is a PPP failure.
