want to remain true to the communist ideology for which so many died, they are faced with
the hard facts of the benefits of joining the emerging world economy. The paper examines the
economy as it is and the possibilities of taking a globalization route similar to that of South
Korea and Singapore: welcoming foreign investment, but according to strict rules set by the
government. Singapore provides a model of how the government does not need to yield its
ideology to foreign entities. It truly is possible for the government to remain in control of
philosophy while allowing the people to enjoy prosperity. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
