People in many countries do not wear their traditional costume. Some argue that they would forget their history and tradition. Do you agree or disagree? The issue of traditional clothes, which was always debatable, has now become even more controversial. Due to the rapid advance in society, it is believed that citizen in many areas would not respect their history and tradition because they do not wear their folk costume. As such, there are both merits and demerits to this trend, but | am of the opinion that the former outdo the latter. There are many arguments in favor of my stance, but the most conspicuous one is that people should wear traditional clothes in special festival. One standout example is originated from the fact that festivals are occasion to have respect for ancestor and look back to history. Wearing traditional is also a good way to encourage people to recall history. Another pivotal aspect of this issue is that modern dress more suitable to wear in daily life than traditional ones. The primary one stems from the fact that wearing national costume cause some difficulties for people when working in a long time. Therefore, modern clothes are more convenient in most situations.

Whereas, the wealth having high standard living, they have more opportunity to choose where they live, what they eat, good education,... So we should not blame for technology while the government cannot give their civilians a better life, and for all those reason, | believe thet technology is not the main reason about the gap between the rich and the poor. Another pivotal aspect of this issue is that technology for all walks of life. The primary one stems from the fact that many technological companies product variety kind of device from cheap to expensive. Thus, customers have suitable choice when purchasing modern device. Despite the narrow budget, poverty still reach the modern life with technology. With all the reasons mentioned above, | totally believe that the developing in technology is not the reason for increasing the level of wealth inequality.
