are complicated.

Firstly

even more because of the large population.

Accordingly

, the solutions to the aforementioned

should

also

be varied. First and foremost, the government should supply cheaper urban housing so that workers can afford to live in

.

For example

such

is

due to

the consideration that there are always many commuters every day. Above all,
