Dear everyone, please help choose the most suitable option to complete the sentence.

Tourism suffers from the lack of …………….. in that country.
a. arrangement
b. direction
c. organization
d. regularity

Tourism suffers from the lack of direction in that country.

Yes, c seems correct but “the lack” sounds non-idiomatic unless “the lack” has already been discussed/mentioned. Otherwise it would probably be “a lack”. Impossible to say without full context.
