Hi people,
A friend of mine wrote a paper on African competitiveness today and he reproduced a table from a paper he read (Biggs et al) that I thought might be interesting to our group:
COST COMPARISON (US$) FOR MEN's CASUAL LONG-SLEEVED SHIRT
Zimbabwe $5.75
Kenya $5.37
Senegal $7.73
Ghana $5.34
India $8.18 Â (incl $3.00 quota cost)
UAE $7.13 (incl $1.50 quota cost)
Source: Biggs et al's estimates (1994). Biggs, t. et al "Africa Can Compete." World Bank Discussion Paper 242. 1994. pg. 19.
