INTRODUCTION

Planning is an age long concept. NEWBSTERS DICTIONARY said that it is a proposed or intended course of action etc. blaster cracian, a Spanish Jesuit was credited with the following statement over three hundred years ago. Thinking in anticipation today for tomorrow and indeed, for many days, the greatest providence is to have forethought for what comes. What is provided for, does not happen by chance nor, is the man who is prepared over beset by emergencies.
