Is developing a socio-economic, political. cultural or geographical distinction? In terms of Singapore?

Question

I have done a case study on singapore and am having trouble with this question. My teacher said that this is where the "A" lies, meaning if i answer this and give evidence and detailed reasoning i'll be sure to get an A. My case study is excellent but i am having trouble interpreting this question. Please help. Thanks.

Answer 1

a country develops in what sense? socio-economically, politically, culturally or geographically?  in terms of anywhere, same answer, but there is more than one possible answer IMO

Answer 2

If you read some of Michael Porters work, the economic model of Singapore was founded on this 5 forces model. Good luck.
