Opinions vary regarding whether governments should spend more money expanding access to the Internet than improving public transportation. I agree with the statement for the following two reasons. First, accessing to the Internet give people a wide of chances to learn. Moreover, people can pursuit their convenient life by using Internet.
First of all, expanding access to the Internet offers people more opportunities to study. In general, the Internet has been regarded as a sea of information. Of course, not all people can easily access to the internet since some are not allowed to use the Internet because of geological condition. Thus, I think that if government expands facility to exploit the Internet, more citizens can learn by surfing the Internet. For example, suppose that people living in rural area are not given to use the Internet. In this context, for education, they will need to attend school program. However, they will have difficulty in attending the offline class because they live far away from school, which makes the people give up education. In contrast, if the people access to the Internet, they can enroll in online academic courses, which lets the people read useful information on website and achieve academic goals.
In addition, using Internet provides people with comfortable life. In the past, many people cannot readily communicate with each other, which prevent them from getting useful information. In these days, however, accessing to the Internet allows people to earn important information they need on website. Thus, it is essential for government to expand infrastructure to exploit the Internet. According to a study conducted by Korean National Research Center, 71 percent of surveyed respondents living in rural area answered that using the Internet enables them to seek convenient life from buying some products that are hard to purchase in rural area. Also, they are offered a variety of certificates without visiting officials by accessing to the Internet. Based on the study, if they had used the Internet, they might have lived inconvenient life there.
In conclusion, government should spend more money expanding access to the Internet because there are a lot of advantages that provide people living in rural area with a wide of opportunities to study through online classes and allow people to seek their convenient life. |
