Assalamualaikum

Good morning, honorable teachers and my dear friends. Thank you for being here. It is a
great honor for me to give a brief speech on the importance of education.
Education is essential for every person as it can lead us to a better future. However, we may
still face the major problem concerning of different standard of educations in our country,
Indonesia.
Education plays a vital role in providing us with knowledge. It helps us to understand rightly
how the world works so we can apply it in our real life to make it easier. The true education
is not only limited to lessons in classes but it is the whole knowledge that can be obtained
from lessons taught by life.
Apart from that, education also transforms us into a civilized human. It helps a person to
build good manners and characters, teaching us how to behave. In short, a good education
can humanize human.
As the old saying goes, “education is a key to success,” we need it to open the door to
brilliant career opportunities. It builds our confidence to make wise decisions, face life
challenges, and to rise from failures. Mapping out a strategy and setting goals is the best
way to reach success in our career. As our global world nowadays demands on the top
quality of works, well-educated people usually earn higher salaries. It is undeniable that we
need money to buy necessities and desirables. Only through a good education, an individual
will get a higher chance of getting a job with a high payment.
Lastly, at a greater scale, education is important for national progress which means we as
the citizens must equip ourselves with proper education. We should never neglect
education and we can be called as unwise if we do so. Although education is not listed as
human basic needs, we have to realize that we are the assets of our country. Therefore we
need to make sure the future of our country is safe in the hand of an educated society.
In conclusion, getting a good education is the best way to self-empowerment. It helps us to
spot our true potential and talent, so that we may be able to sharpen our skills. It is
important for everyone to have an equitable education for a better future of our people and
country. Thank you for lending me your attention.
