results showed that certain sectors had high dispersion and sensitivity, so
they had the potential to become the leading sectors of economic growth. These were
sub-sectors that were characterized by significant dispersion and sensitivity, often termed as leading sectors. While the sub-sector with the largest
output multiplier effect was the electricity sub-sector, For the income
multiplier, it was clear that education services had the largest income
multiplier effect. The study emphasized the need to encourage public and
private investment in leading sectors to promote sustainable economic
development.
