Step 2: Selecting the Underlying Problem
Given that the future scene shows that only 7% of the government of Vandaquim's annual budget is set aside for educational purposes, how might we attempt to increase the annual budget of the country's government in Vandaquim by 2060, so that a larger sum of money can be allocated to education?

Solution 1 : Industrialization and Tourist Attractions
The Economical Development Board of Vandaquim can invite expert Urban Planners, Engineers and Architects to Vandaquim by offering tax exemptions and free pieces of lands and in that way, more industries, tourist attractions, etc. will be set-up in Vandaquim, attracting more foreign investors and tourists to come to Vandaquim, thus enabling the building of bigger, better, more efficient schools that will teach better and will have a better conducive environment that promotes communication between pupils and teachers so as to breed brighter new generations of Vandaquimians.

Solution 2 : Education
The Ministry of Education of Vandaquim can employ skilled Teachers and Professors, or educated Vandaquimians that have emmigrated from other countries to come to Vandaquim to teach and train more skilled teachers by offering a high salary, and in that way, the future generations of Vandaquimians will be more educated and will be able to start business, industries, or taking on politics to increase the income of Vandaquim so that a larger sum of money can be allocated into Education.

Solution 3 : Justice
The Government of Vandaquim can purchase more efficient security systems and weapons from other countries and invite police officers from other countries to come to Vandaquim to train stricter policemen by using money allocated to Defense and in that way, the corrupt children in schools will be brought to justice by policemen and will be forced to change their ways, additionally, corrupt adults will either be thrown in jail or have to change their corrupt ways so that there will be less unloyal people in Vandaquim that contribute to the Defense by joining the Police force or army, or economy if they are educated.

Solution 4 : Defence
The Government of Vandaquim can obtain efficient weapons, aircraft, etc. that can be utilized by the army to defend the country by buying or borrowing them from different countries and in that way, the country's Defence Forces will be strengthened, making countries think twice about invading Vandaquim, and larger sum of money can then be allocated to the Education System.

Solution 5 : Labour-Intensive Industries
The Economical Board of Vandaquim can attract Foreign Investors set-up Labour-Intensive Industries that require more labour, but requiring less skill by providing tax exemptions to attract them, and in that way, will help speed up the industrialization of Vandaquim and earn more income, which will then result in a larger sum of money allocated towards Education.

Solution 6 : Build Rapports with Neighbouring Countries
The Government of Vandaquim can build rapports \with neighbouring countries by attending meetings, dinners, etc .and in that way, the Government of Vandaquim will have allies that can support Vandaquim and also provide extra defense and money so Vandaquim can focus on the Education system to educate more citizens.
