- Q2: Kanke Pharma, a large well-established pharmaceutical company, made its name by pioneering innovative new drugs. Intense competition from other companies in the pharmaceutical industry, plus increasing government pressure to reduce the price of drugs, has put pressure on the company to reduce costs and speed up product development.

Unmindful of the costs, the parents maintain the view that real education has a high price tag. The public elementary schools as well as the public high schools are perceived, rightly or wrongly, as not being able to deliver the quality of educational services needed. Even if this is so, enrolment in public schools has swelled to more than 60 students per class. The rule in public schools, except college, is to accommodate everybody. Currently, the opening of Montessori and private elementary schools in the area has provided some relief to parents who want quality education for their children. The older private schools are now competing with the new Montessori and private elementary schools which charge higher tuition fees.
