Which of the following cannot be said about structural adjustment?

  • A.It is the World Bank’s free market ideology adapted by Asian countries.
  • B.Under this strategy public sector investment in priority sectors is discouraged.
  • C.As a development strategy it has failed in Africa.
  • D.With this strategy there has been a lack of adequate investment in critical sectors.

Answer: A

Correct answer: It is the World Bank's free market ideology adapted by Asian countries.

The passage says the opposite: structural adjustment went against the practical lessons of development successes in China and the rest of Asia. The other three statements are all made by the passage - that public investment was discouraged, that critical sectors were underfinanced, and that the result in Africa was a disaster.
