2. Do you think it is better for the government to have more FDI (Foreign Direct
Investment) than FPI (Foreign Portfolio Investment)?
According to Maverick (2020), FPI refers to financial assets such as stocks or
bonds, while FDI refers to establishing direct business interests such as
establishing factories, building warehouses, or buying buildings. So, in my
opinion, the government should have more FDI because it is more permanent
and more difficult to liquidate than FPI, so if the government has more FDI
than FPI, it will not worry about capital flights.
