1. Developing countries require help offered by international organizations to ensure healthy and sustainable development. Some people think that financial aid is important. Others believe practical aid and advice is more important. Discuss both the views and give your own opinion.
It is not rare to e international organizations give financial aid or other forms of assistance to impoverished nations to support their economic, environmental, social, and political development. Conflicting ideas clash in whether or not financial support is the best way of assistance. In my point of view, economic donation is distinguished from other practical aid by focusing on alleviating poverty in the short term, rather than a long term respon.
Admittedly, some arguments could be explored to justify that developing countries ought to be offered financial support. To begin with, help bad on financial donation could benefit the poverty-stricken nations directly. To be more specific, aid that rves to finance the core inputs to development, such as teachers, health centers, roads, wells, and medicine, could
accelerate the development of the straitened countries and thus the living standards could be enhanced. In addition, tho financial beneficence could help developing countries strengthen their business environment, increa the access to international markets, and create more job opportunities. Nevertheless, the potential drawbacks of economic assistance could not be ignored. Becau of information asymmetries, international organizations often encounter difficulties in terms of the appropriate allocation of financial resources. Moreover, direct donation could create dependency and corruption. In cas where the money obtained is badly spent, human suffering would increa.
Apart from financial support, other forms of foreign aid will also give a big push to break the low-income poverty trap that poorer countries are trapped in. Opening up trade barriers, for example, is an alternative way to enable undeveloped countries to export their goods and products. Further, high-quality and experienced teaching staff and medical workers could be dispatched to the impoverished ones to offer educational and medical assistance.
In conclusion, international assistance, be it financially or in other forms, could offer developing countries relief. However, given that different countries face different obstacles, international organizations should take the actual national conditions into account when deciding which forms of assistance to offer.
2. Some people believe that rich countries should provide poor countries with other types of help rather than financial aid. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
There are many ways that wealthy countries could help impoverished ones. Some people argue that providing financial aid is the best way, however, I think many other forms of assistance could be explored to make poor nations become better off.
It is undeniable that financial assistance could benefit poverty-stricken nations to some extent. The obvious benefit of this kind of aid is to support poor countries in implementing large projects. Without sufficient funds, poor countries cannot build infrastructures, schools, hospitals, and roads. In desperately poor nations that have the worst economic situations, donations could be ud directly to buy clothes, food, and drinks to meet peopl
e’s basic need. In addition, governments of developed counties could invest the received funds to create more job opportunities for their citizens.Once employed, people’s living standard can increa subquently.
Nevertheless, some people claim that offering financial assistance is only a short-term solution and can cau numerous problems. One potential risk is that underprivileged countries might become too reliant on well-to-do ones and continue to demand more and more from the rest of the world to survive. Moreover, corruption is likely to occur when donations goes to the wealthy people of poor nations who do not care about the living quality of the general public.
Apart from offering economic aids, governments of developed counties could go for veral other types of assistance. Firstly, other than money they can donate food, clothing, toiletry items, furniture, toys and books to the less well-off nations. In this ca, corruption could be decread or even eliminated. Secondly, volunteer teachers and doctors with professional skills could be dispatched to poor nations to improve the education and medical care systems.
To summarize, developed countries could give aid to poor nations in many forms. However, effectiveness of the aid varies depending on the specific condition of each nation.
3. Most of the urgent problems can only be solved with international cooperation. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In modern society, problems that people encounter are to such an extent that they need cooperation at local as well as international level. Some people claim that international attention is required to solve the urgent problems, such as environmental protection, the relief of natural disasters, and pollution.
It is undeniable that numerous issues have reached a global level and only through global cooperation can the issues be solved. For example, in the management of global warming risks, a ries of international conferences have been held over the past few decades in an attempt to reduce the emissions of greenhou gas, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone. Governments of top emitting countries, in particular, need t
o establish both national and regional targets to reduce emissions, promote energy efficiency, and support for renewable energy like solar energy. International cooperation also plays a vital role in relieving survivors of natural disasters and wars. The joint efforts of well-to-do countries worldwide could help with the rious food crisis to a large extent.
