Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Privatization, or the conversion of state-owned property to privately owned property, occurs when countries believe that private firms could bring additional investments and manage the operations more efficiently than the government. Most state-owned enterprises that are sold to the private sector are unprofitable, undercapitalized, and overstaffed. Telecommunications firms are commonly privatized because governments can't afford to keep up with technological changes.
