Ocean Queen Entertainment is the large provider of Casino Entertainment Company with 18 casinos across the United States. Since its beginning in Las Vegas, Nevada 15 years ago, Ocean Queen has grown through development of new properties and expansions. Ocean Queen Entertainment is focused on building value and loyalty with the customers through combination of excellent service, great products, and technology leadership. Ocean Queen's mission in Kava is to bring prosperity to the people who live in Kava and to create a viable economic environment that encourages responsible growth and strengthens social services. The specific plan of Ocean Queen will be to bring in foreign investment for tourism and human resources, improve government and community organizational processes and encourage ethical decision-making. In addition, Kava needs a consistent, successful business culture that will help them get through this tremulous time and thrive in the future.
The island of Kava is a country in need of many things. The majority of people located in Kava are under the age of 15 years old. Kava is an ethnic melting pot of indigenous South Pacific tribes, oriental, African, French, Spanish, and Americans. 50% of the people in Kava are of indigenous religions with a mixture of Christian, Buddhist, and Islamic dividing up the remaining amount (University of Phoenix, 2007).
The economy of Kava is a mixture of commodity and service. Petroleum, coffee, cocoa, spices, bananas, sugar, fishing and natural gas are their leading exportable commodities with tourism being their primary source of service revenue. Kava is faced with many potential natural disasters ranging from tidal waves, typhoons, tornados, floods, fires, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes. They also face dangers from HIV, petroleum spills, avian flu and terrorism.
Kava's major problems are most noted in their workforce supply, revenue diversification and social services. Kava is dependent on a young workforce. Kava will require immigrants to fill positions that require some skills not found in their young population. The island of Kava has a resource driven revenue stream that is depended on exporting goods (University of Phoenix, 2007). The exported items could have drive up costs for local population and increase economic risk when disaster occurs. A diversification of revenue toward service will assist in increasing economic success without draining or potentially destroying the environment. The poor social services of Kava are evidenced in their inability to handle the effects of disasters. This impairs the life span of Kava's indigenous population and has a negative perception effect on outside involvement.
Kava is a country that is heading down the path of economic and social disaster. However, the people of Kava can change its future toward positive growth. Ocean Queen will help Kava by identifying their problems as well as assist in correcting them while increasing a responsible present in the country.
