    Liberia lacks the sort of institutions that promote growth that Taiwan has

    Explanation:

    When growth process is institutionalised there is sustainability development of a country. But when there are no institutions to encourage growth then the economy declines.

    Taiwan has a responsive government that proactively plans economic development into the future. The best way to do this is to imstitutuionalise the growth process. Resources are more efficiently used and waste is reduced.

    If however the government spends indiscriminately, does not save, and does plan properly then economy will decline.

    This is the case here where Taiwan has a GDP per capita that is 20 times that of Liberia
