“I met with a Jordanian minister a few years ago and he told me that he wanted the country to have 10,000 PhDs in the next few years, and I thought, ‘that’s a great metric to have, but what are you going to do with those PhDs?”
Indeed, a great metric, but where will they go, what will they do, and more importantly, how will they generate income for the economy?
