Having now done all of this yourself, do you think the amount they charge is reasonable, given how incredibly painful it is to do this on your own?

No, I don't find the amount reasonable because of two reasons:

1) They charge so high because there are few players with so many internal contacts. So this is a monopoly or oligopoly market just taking advantage of the system. I mean it is hard because of these people. These people lobby to keep such systems in place.

2) It is unreasonable for any government, especially in a developing country to make so many demands of the illiterate and poor population. If such a situation continues, poor people will never be able to manufacture anything.

This creates a social division almost alike slaves and masters. Alike the Soviet System of the Elite Aristocrats, Their friends in rich, non-competition businesses and the government and the serfs and peasants.

It does sound like feudalism but this time it's not about farmland. It's about industrial land.

However, there is one difference. A small factory can employ many people. If you succeed, you won't be the only one who benefits.

seems like its reasonable only if you take corruption and cronyism as a given
