Decisions in Paradise: Part One
Kava, a South Pacific Island, seems like a very challenging place to establish a successful business. Success, however, can be defined in many different ways. For the island of Kava, success is going to mean a jump start to the economy of Kava. Our company, the Dive Shop, will bring in much of what is needed for the island.

This addition of tourists will bring in more traffic and other environmental issues to be discussed with the locals and government. It is our job to have solutions to these issues before we go before the government and locals.
One of the last issues remaining for our business is the amount of resources needed to build our...
