In
this study, restructuring of states according to a Geometric Ratio Technique
(GRT) is proposed for future developments. To visualise and simulate the
restructuring, a pyramid figure is used with four layers. These layers are
identified as 1L, 2L, 3L and 4L from top to down. The layer 1L shows the core size
of a state government with all its staff. The power multiplier is 1 and the
personnel size is found to be 1.562% of its population. The Layer 2L is generally
constituted of security. Within this layer, there are three groups of security
namely military, police and others. These security sectors are represented as a
whole with a top management. The power multiplier of this layer is 3 and the personnel
size is found to be 4.687%. The third layer 3L is research and development
(R&D) layer. Currently, R&D layer is institutionally not established
well in state governments worldwide. The power multiplier of this layer is 12
and its personnel size is found to be 18.75%. This layer is extremely important
for the future. In terms of creating added value, it has 4 fold effects on the
economy in positive or negative ways. On the other hand, it has 0.3 fold upward
effect on state governments. Sectoral R&Ds in this layer are (a) agriculture,
food, forestry, animal husbandry and associated industries, (b) IT, electronics
and defence and (c) the remaining sectors. Proportional sizes of these sectors are
assumed to be equal. The last layer 4L is production layer. Production of goods
and services based on the R&Ds are done at this layer. Again, sectors in
this layer are assumed to be equal in terms of quantity and importance. This
layer is constituted of skilled and unskilled employees. The power multiplier
of the fourth layer is 48 and the personnel size is found to be 75%. Any
production beyond the identification of this study is also considered within
this layer.
A
GRT is used to calculate these layers and associated segments. The geometric
ratio used is quite similar to the golden ratio with 3.39% error. The geometric
sequence (2N + 1) is used in expanding and shrinking the layers. Sectors studied
in this article are assumed to have equal size and importance. Consequently,
extending and reducing rates are also assumed to be the same. Agriculture,
food, animal husbandary, forestry and associated industries are studied as an integrated
unified single sector.
Finally,
current and future developments would require states and large companied to be
restructured. Budget cuts, new investments, growths, changes, etc. are always
strategic issues of governments. Establishments may expand or shrink their
structures. This article shows how such restructuring could be performed
according to a GRT. Furthermore, effects and consequences are also calculated with
respect to changes in different segments.
