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. Hence, it is apparent why many are against traditional folk.
With all the reasons mentioned above, the advantages of national costume are far too great to
ignore.The issue of technology, which was always debatable, has now become even more controversial.
Due to the rapid advance in technology, it is believed that the more technology field widen, the
more distance between the wealth and the poverty. As such, | completely disagree with the
statement.
There are many arguments in favor of my stance, but the most conspicuous one is that the growth
of technology is not the main factor cause the chink between classes in society. This issue also
depend on economy, education and society. People who has low salary cannot afford to cost of
living. Therefore, the poor have no optional. 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.The line graph demonstrates the amount of the citizerilaged 65 and over in Japan, Sweden and
