People who support globalization have their reasons and it is very obvious that the reasons benefits them. The very first reason that they support is because globalization helps improve the standard of living. As Singapore welcomes more foreign investments, the country gain more revenue, therefore the revenue will be use on areas like health, education and housing. The second reason is because globalization helps increase awareness of foreign culture. We get to learn about another religion, race or country’s culture and history. It is a good thing which globalization helps create as we can easily interact with people from different country. The last reason why people support globalization is because it helps increase awareness of our environment’s danger. This will help more people to be more cautious on how they treat their environment in order to give our younger generation the privilege to enjoy the earth’s natural beauty.

People do not support globalization because they felt that globalization has cause them problems. The biggest problem is actually the environmental degradation. As more housing and roads are being built, we will have to clear forest and our human activities like logging and industrial activities cause deforestation, flood, air pollution and global warming. These are very harmful to us. The second reason why people do not support globalization because the gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger. The developed countries usually are the manufacturing activities owner. This is the reason why they are richer. On the other hand, the developing countries often face trade restrictions put up by the developed countries. they usually hire lowly skilled labours. As a result, the rich will continue to prosper and the poor will continue to face economic problems like retrenchments [poverty cycle]. Lastly, globalization makes a country lose its local identity. The loss of local culture had caused negative influences as the people especially the younger generations and that they do not bother about their locality. Globalization has cause all three impacts. Economic, social and environmental. i would stand on the side which do not support globalization because in future the economic and environmental impact might be harmful to me and on the other hand, the social impact had already influenced me.
