Finally we will look at a new innovative strategy, which has never previously been combined to such strict measures, for the transportation of tropical fish. This model ensures tropical fish experience less stress during their journey, with increased survival rates and extended life spans, whilst abiding by any regulations from authorities. After analysing all of these different areas, it will allow any new Importer & Distributor to make a well-informed decision as to whether or not the UK is a promising market to enter. Along with an extremely detailed specifications to adhere to, when transporting tropical fish across the world. The findings for this research are that the UK has a vast market for Ornamental Tropical freshwater fish, which continues to grow every year and has great potential. This however comes with lots of fierce competition in every stage of the supply chain. There have been a few key steps determined, which would need to be implemented in order to allow for the successful start of a new Importer & Distributor within the country. These steps have been displayed within the conclusion below. Lastly the innovative model to transport tropical fish further across the globe, has been demonstrated by combining and streamlining ten influential areas with newer technologies to create a revolutionary system. Strict regulations and time frames that are to be maintained and adhered to at all times in order for the success of this model.","PeriodicalId":7517,"journal":{"name":"American academic & scholarly research journal","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75728283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hendrick. He is the ghost writer of this doubtful book and received a very huge lump sum of money from Mr. Morgenthau for his very professional, devoted and rapacious services.The fact is that Ambassador Morgenthau officiated as an US Ambassador in Istanbul from late 1913 to early 1916 but never travelled eastwards on the overland.

Being a time series data, to avoid spurious regression result, the first step was to test for stationary of the data by using Phillips Peron unit root test. Then Johansen (1988) technique was used to establish if the non-stationary variable are cointegrated. The result of stationary and normality test reveals that the model is fairly well specified and could be used for policy analysis. Empirical investigations reveal that three variables are statistically significant at 5% and these variables are export, foreign direct investment and exchange rate and they are positively related to real GDP while other variables such as import, inflation rate, openness exert a negative influence on real GDP. The study demonstrates that increase participation in global trade helps Nigeria to reap static and dynamic benefit of international trade despite non conformity of the coefficient of the openness. Both international trade volume and trade structure towards high technology export result in positively effect on Nigeria economy. We therefore recommend that the government should design appropriate strategy by diversifying the economy through export promotion, stimulating foreign direct investment and exchange rate stability in order to boost productivity of Nigeria economy by raising the standard of living of the citizens.","PeriodicalId":7517,"journal":{"name":"American academic & scholarly research journal","volume":"112 1","pages":"1"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82469707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
