Name of the Country:

Afghanistan

Picture Description: The

picture shows people
who’re protesting. We can
see here that there’s not
only women who are not
protesting but also men. They’re
trying to protest against theer
rights.

Question: If you were the Talibans as the new government, what would be the best decision?
To maintain Sharia Law or to Liberalize women? Justify your answer.
Answer: Time is changing and nothing is ever constant. Talibans are traditionally tied with
Sharia law but some modernists have taken a leap to adapt in the changing world. Talibans as
seen on tv embrace technology and modernization. Another aspect that they could learn is
giving liberty to women. It may take time to accept and acknowledge women's rights in a
patriarchal society but Talibans must also realize that a country can only be called one when its
citizens have rights and freedom.

Name of the Country:

United Kingdom

Picture
Description:The picture
shows what green jobs
means. It shows examples of
green jobs. And it shows
here some of what green
jobs do or professions.

Question: What does green jobs mean? What would be its effect to the global economy? Would
you also love to be part of this?
Answer: Whether in agriculture, manufacturing, services, or administration, a green job is a
decent profession that helps to the preservation or restoration of the environment's quality.
Green jobs are decent job positions in industries and activities that contribute to environmental
protection and restoration. It has a good effect on the global economy, since this is an
environmentally friendly job. Of course, I would love to be part of this. Because it has a good
purpose. It lessens the environmental effect of businesses and industries by increasing energy,
raw material, and water efficiency; decarbonizing the economy and lowering greenhouse gas
emissions; minimizing or eliminating all forms of waste and pollution; and protecting or
restoring ecosystems. And also because it encourages positive and creative changes in energy
efficiency, renewable energy, and greenhouse gas emissions. That’s why I would love to be part
of this.
