It is true of Japan. About a century ago Japan was considered as an underdeveloped country. Thanks to the rapid progress made by Management science, now Japan is regarded as one of the most advanced countries of the world. Increasing production and productivity is the need of the hour. These are dependent upon physical factors or natural resources of a country and its human resource. However, the resources capable of enlargement can only be human resource. All other resources stand under the laws of mechanics. They can be better utilised or worse utilised but they can never have an output greater than the sum of the inputs.
