Facilitating imports of key industrial goods impeding development and
effective use of domestic industrial and human skills.
Average municipalities which received large amounts of royalties from
extractive activities somehow did not fare better on social indicators
such as education, health and public infrastructure.

attempts all the good intentions of companies.
