[TOPIC] It is important to know about events happening around the world even if it is unlikely that they affect your daily life. |
Many people have been debating the pros and cons of the idea that knowing about the happening around the globe is beneficial although the possibility of influence is relatively low. From my personal point of view, I strongly agree with the opinion that being notified about the news around the world is good for us in many aspects. This is because knowing the events around the world can widen our perspective and even though the events are unlikely to affect us now, it would be in the future. To start with, getting information about the events around the world leads us to have wide perspective. Nowadays, there are so many news and issues in the world which makes us confused and distracted from our daily lives. However, if we have known about that knowledge and information around the globe, we could ensure widen and broaden point of view. Thus, learning about other countries is quite recommendable for enlarging our viewpoint. To illustrate, take Chinese market development as an example. China has been highlighted as a new motivator of global economy in the beginning of 21th century. Thanks to their abundant nature and human resources, now they wield and great influence on the entire world economically and politically. Even though it seems like that China has no critical effects on our live deeply, if we have knowledge about the consequences in the country, we might better figure the world situation out. Thus, it is quite obvious that knowing about world situation accurately can be a encouragement of expanding our horizons. Furthermore, the events of other countries can affect our lives in the future. Some people might assert that cultural and regional difference makes it hard to affect our home country. However, in this modern society, the velocity of conveying cultural and societal influence has been faster, and thus now it is easy to affect by other countries’ affairs. Therefore, we should put our attention on the events of other nations. According to a survey recently released by the Korean Nation Research Center, more than two thirds of the surveyed fashion designers in Korea responded that they willingly follow the recent trend of western countries since people of Korea desire to absorb their culture of outlook appearance. They also mentioned that, even the clothes of a famous movie star in America of yesterday can be reflected the fashion mode of Korea today. Slowly and surely, we should take close look what is going on other country which can influence our own nation soon or later. In this context, there is no wonder the accidents around the world are able to be accommodated us in the near future. In brief, learning about the facts around the world needs to be considered positively in terms of promoting our perspective and trend. Getting information about the happenings around the globe can broaden our viewpoint and although the events are unlikely to occur to us now, it might be in the future. In general, I wholeheartedly believe that the very first thing we should do now is admitting the importance of the knowing more about other countries as a cornerstone which bolster our future development.
