Scenario 1
Country A invested in reliable wireless Internet for most of its cities. As a result, more people and small businesses have access to high-speed Internet. Households are happy with this development, as they now have improved Wi-Fi for communicating, downloading movies, gaming, and so on. Firms are even happier because their bill payment, sales, and customer service processes are much faster and more reliable. Output has even increased in local manufacturing firms because automated machines run quicker.
