I have this question that i need help with.

evaluate the impact of multinationals on the economic development of countries such as Indonesia

Some points i can use

National Impacts:

1. FDI
2. Balance of Payments
3. Technology/SkillsTransfer
4. Consumer Choice
5. Business Culture/McDonaldization
6. Tax Revenues/Transfer Pricing/Capital Flight

Local Impacts:

Local labour and job creation

New jobs are created directly by the MNC.

Risk that localbusiness will be forced out > fall in jobs.

Wages and working conditions

Often higher pay/better conditions

Jobs often low skilled/monotonous

Local community and environment

Invest in infrastructure. Raises living standards for community via multiplier effect.

Drain on limited resources, can cause local devastation.
