The last few years have experienced burgeoning growth in the field of

communication technology and transportation, which enables people to work

and live in any part of the world. In my opinion, it has lots of advantages when
compared to minor drawbacks that it might bring.

It is undeniable that advancement in communication technology and

transportation offers definite perks. Firstly, it provides better employment
opportunities and thereby helps in the amelioration of a person’s standard of
living. Consequently, their children also get access to better amenities so that
the future generation is also benefited. Secondly, people around the world are
brought together which paves the way for them to understand the world better.
Distance is no more a barrier for people to reach their heights. Another point to
consider is that when people flock to a certain place, to cater to their needs, there
would be a development in the basic facilities.

Admittedly, when people work and settle abroad, it has some detrimental effects
on the society. People seem to be ignorant of the cultural values and instead of
serving their own country, they are swayed by the monetary benefits offered by
the foreign country. If people move to various parts of the world, society as a
whole becomes increasingly disjointed and fragmented. Moreover, instead of
getting care from their grandparents, children of immigrant families are taken
care of by baby sitters and after-school child care.

To conclude, in my opinion, the benefits of getting employed and settling abroad

eclipse the minor drawbacks it brings. People get not only better job
opportunity, but also better standard of living with the improvement of
communication technology and transportation.
