Within level interactions:
In the latter portion of table 5, an interaction term between FDI and initial conditions is added.
This variable proves significant, indicating that FDI has a stronger impact on governance
improvement when initial conditions are best. To better explore the extent of this interaction, I
follow the same method, dividing the initial conditions into low, medium, and high.

As can be seen in figure 3, all provinces have similar intercepts, but the FDI has a much large
impact on provinces with auspicious initial conditions. FDI has a moderate impact on provinces
with medium initial conditions and only a marginal impact on provinces with low initial
conditions.
