is an all-embracing term referring to the interdependence of different countries and the speeding-up of life in an array of aspects, especially transport, mass communication and technology.

On the other hand

do exert negative impacts, the most outstanding of which has to be cultural assimilation, or the loss of cultural identity. Massive international tourism and the influx of immigrants with their own styles of life and customs comes with the inevitable cost of culture modifications. For an example, In Viet Nam, many long-standing, historical buildings have been modernised to better suit the need and the interest of foreign visitors. As can be expected, cultural quintessence and the original nuances are fading away for the sake of revenues.

, the dependence of impoverished nations on more wealthy ones could result in serious consequences. The developed countries may take advantage of cheap labour, exploit natural resources and most alarmingly, influence the political system in the developing countries. All in all, while the advantages of

are obvious, we should not gloss over potential dangers arising from it. Be that as it may, the benefits created by it still far outweigh the disadvantages.

Therefore

should not be stopped, but the local governments should adopt a cautious attitude towards it.
