Five-year development plans (FYDPs) have been devised and approved for the past several decades.

A large part of the country’s bureaucracy is tasked with writing them and the parliament’s commissions spend countless hours evaluating and approving them. Occasionally, correspondence is undertaken to ascertain the prospects of realizing the goals envisioned in the plans.
