Some people believe that a visitor to country should follow local custom and tradition while other believe that host country should respect the cultural differences Discuss both these view and give your own opinion

Mass immigration to the western world often debates on the popular media in terms of cultural values. It is often argued by some that an immigrant should follow tradition and culture of the

host

country

in order to blend in easily. Meanwhile, others still claim that the

host

country

should

respect

cultural differences to make life easier for immigrant.

However

, I believe that visitors should follow certain custom and traditions and the

host

country

should

also

show flexibility to cater for immigrants.

This

essay will explore both sides of the argument before discussing my opinion. On the one hand, the supporters of the idea that a visitor should follow local custom and tradition believe that it helps immigrants integrate properly in the society. As integrating into

community

allow the visitor to become an active member of the society. Take an example of New Zealand, where the Syrian migrants have simulated in the

community

on the northern island.

Thus

, visitors can easily integrate in a society and flourish if they follow local custom. While

on the other hand

, the advocates of the idea that the

host

country

should

respect

the cultural values believe that it would reduce conflicts and would help immigrants in becoming a productive part of

community

Suggestion

the community

a community

. As disrespect of culture would lead to a disintegrated population and conflicts.

For instance

, a large African migrant population in Sweden suffered a lot at the hands of the Swedish government, which had conflicting policies in regards to their culture.

Hence

, keeping in consideration the cultural differences would for sure reduce conflict. Whereas, I believe that a visitor should follow local cultural values to an extent, but the

host

country

should

also

show

respect

for cultural differences not only help immigrants blend in easily but

also

reduce cultural conflicts. To sum up, in order for a

host

country

to have active immigrants that are productive and integrated within

community

so the

host

country

should

respect

the cultural difference and visitors should follow local practices.
