Question

A car manufacturer is considering locating an assembly plant in your region.

Answer 1

Answer: Perception of the society towards this.

Explanation:

When citing an industry or production site in a locality most often capital is required to get this done but in many scenario capital doesn't seems to be the problem, as the location where these industry is aimed to be planted may likely have an issue with the residents of that environment as regards planting the industry. Some times these opposition is done for obvious reasons as regards health consideration which comes with noise and air pollution but some other times there may be unjustifiable reasons for these not to be planted, probably due greed or the community seeks a share in the resources or return in investment when the firm is planted in their resident. This is a complex problem.

A simple problem would be closeness to the market. If the product in question is desired by the residents in that area, even though the manufacturer might want to be exporting but it'll be a big plus if the residents consider his products more than the external environment.

Nimby can defined as when an individual or a group opposes a decision for the citing of infrastructure and industies in their environment, claiming them to be hazardous to the residents of the environment.

This comes into play for the complex decision because if those residing in the environment don't give a "go ahead" for planting of the industry it won't be successful.
