Industrial Development Corporation

The BID (Board of Industrial Development) framed the legislation and it was introduced before the state legislation and passed in the form of Maharashtra Industrial Act which gave birth to Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC), as a separate corporation on August 1, 1962. The BID was the first personnel strength of MIDC. A small ceremony at Wagle Estate Thane, under the Chairmanship of the Chief Minister Shri Y.B. Chavan, marked the birth of MIDC on August 1, 1962. The Board of Industrial Development during its existence between October 1, 1960 and August 1, 1962 has done enough spade work to identify the locations for setting up industrial areas in different parts of the state. Thus, right in the first year of establishment MIDC came up with 14 industrial areas, to initiate action for infrastructure and help entrepreneurs set up the industrial units in those areas. Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation is the nodal industrial infrastructure development agency of the Maharashtra Government with the basic objective of setting up industrial areas with a provision of industrial infrastructure all over the state for planned and systematic industrial development. MIDC is an innovative, professionally managed, and user friendly organization that provides the world industrial infrastructure. MIDC has played a vital role in the development of industrial infrastructure in the state of Maharashtra. As the state steps into the next millennium, MIDC lives up to its motto Udyamat Sakal Samruddhi i.e., prosperity to all through industrialization. Indeed, in the endeavor of the state to retain its prime position in the industrial sector, MIDC has played a pivotal role in the last 35 years. MIDC has developed 268 industrial estates across the state which spread over 52653 hectares of land. The growth of the Corporation, achieved in the various fields, during the last three years, could be gauged from the fact that the area currently in possession of MIDC has doubled from 25,000 hectares in 1995.

This paper examines the effect of inter-agency delivery systems on the agility of public sector organizations and ease of doing business. The empirical focus is the Nigerian public sector, in relation to the implications of the recent Executive Order regarding how Ministries, Agencies and Departments (MDAs) should operate towards improving the ease of doing business .The study finds that poor inter-organizational linkages in terms of Information and Communication Technology, ICT, and poor interagency collaborative structures constitute serious challenges to the realization of organizational agility and ease of doing business. The paper suggests further investment in establishing a comprehensive government database accessible by various government agencies and enhancing social networking among public agencies through strong ICT and e-governance infrastructure development. By implication, the study reveals that the use of Executive Orders to address fundamental economic and administrative challenges appears perfunctory and superficial without strong ICT support.

The Government

Ethiopia is one of the least urbanized countries in Africa; only 20 per cent of the population reside in cities. Over the next twenty years, urbanization will double. The government plans to transform Ethiopia into a middle-income country by 2025 and industrialization has been prioritized to promote economic growth and job creation. Twin pressures of rapid urbanization and high population growth warrant decisive government measures to manage urbanization. To this end, the government is establishing industrial parks (IPs) in selected cities, signifying the close relationship between urbanization and industrialization through urban plans, infrastructure development, and regional service centres, to strengthen rural–urban linkages. Yet several barriers constrain Ethiopian cities from playing an enabling role in industrialization. Ethiopia must therefore strengthen the efficiency, competitiveness, and productivity of its urban centres to become centres of innovation, economic accumulation, and exchange.

Set Up

One fine evening of February 2018, while sitting on his rocking chair, the CEO of Bright Paint Industries (BPI) recalled the experience of exporting paints to Afghanistan and its financial returns. At the same time, he recalled the exhibitions of UAE in 2015 and 2016. Since 2016–2017, the top management was analyzing growing demands in local and foreign markets and very much concerned about implications of (1) rising competition from unorganized paint sector, (2) the customers’ trend towards using alternatives to paints like wallpapers, etc. and (3) ease of doing business in Pakistan due to persistent energy crises and other factors. Keeping in view the above-said issues and its existing presence in paint industry for the last four decades, the company is now considering two options: (1) expand its existing operations in Pakistan and cater the foreign markets by export from here or (2) set up a plant at some foreign location and fulfil orders from there.

Negative Impacts

There are a number of positive impacts if Indonesia uses these three indexes: the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business, the World Economic Forum’s Global Competitiveness Index, and the World Justice Project’s Rule of Law Index as guidance for “peraturan perundang-undangan” (laws and regulations). Nonetheless, it is important to note that there are also negative impacts that could arise. One of the important solutions to avoid negative impacts is to consistently comply with Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the State of the Republic of Indonesia. The concept of using international indexes as guidance is not only limited to the Ease of Doing Business, the Global Competitiveness Index, and the Rule of Law Index. Other relevant international indexes could have also roles in providing guidance for laws and regulations in Indonesia, by taking into account the discussion and recommendations in this research, in particular: these indexes must be in accordance with Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution of the State of the Republic of Indonesia. Furthermore, this research also provides recommendations for how to improve Indonesia’s rankings on the three indexes, which could also be relevant in the context of other international indexes.

New Industrialization

The purpose of the research article involves the study of industrial parks, on the one hand, as an institution and an instrument of industrial development, on the other hand, as a factor affecting the productivity and effectiveness of regional state industrial policy. The research object is an industrial park as a factor of reindustrialization and new industrialization. The subject of the study is the regional state industrial policy. The results of the study showed that at the time of the adoption of the relevant law on industrial policy in the Russian Federation (2014), there were three states of the industrial complex in the Russian regions (in our case, in the macro-region of Central Russia (the Central Federal District region)): deindustrialization, the state of industrial stagnation and the state of high-quality industrial growth. The authors focus on the different mission of industrial parks in the industrial policy of the Russian Federation constituents, depending on their conditions.
