are that they create job opportunities and a better lifestyle for the citizens of the developing nation, but there are

also

drawbacks to be taken into account. One benefit of global organizations being increasingly common in a developing society is that they create job opportunities.

In other words

Linking Words

, they provide employment for the citizens in that nation.

Furthermore

Linking Words

, having multinationals set up branches in a developing society is advantageous because people in that country can live a good life and can provide for their families.

For example

Linking Words

, Graduates in China do not travel to other countries for employment because multinational companies

such

as Apple and Google are situated there so they gain employment easily.

Therefore

Linking Words

, having international firms establish offices in an upcoming nation, provides job opportunities and better living. One drawback of multinational company investment in developing societies is that workers are forced to perform tasks harder than their counterparts in developed countries.

Moreover

Linking Words

, workers complain that their employers compel them to work overtime in other that they meet the company's targets. Another issue is that the employees are not well paid. Multinational companies want more work done with cheap labour

hence

Linking Words

their low remuneration.

For instance

Linking Words

, the employees of a Telecommunication company, MTN Nigeria, are forced to work more than twelve hours a day to complete tasks and if they do not comply, they would be laid off.

That is

Linking Words

to say that global organizations in a developing country could lead to overworking of the employees. In conclusion, while the developing world benefits from global companies being situated there, it could lead to working longer hours and earning minimal wages.

In recent years many people assume that we should study subjects that we are interested in. Is it good to study subjects whatever we like than those which will be useful in the future? Some people believe allowing students to learn practical matter for the upcoming days, whereas others believe otherwise. However, I strongly believe that the advantages of letting scholars to choose the favorite subjects outweigh the drawbacks.

Can money bring happiness to people? Should people rather focus on moral values instead?
The concept of happiness breaks into countless interpretations, making it impossible to quantify. People generally fall into two groups regarding the relationship between money and happiness, sparking endless debates. In my perspective, money serves as a tool to achieve the peak of happiness. If you aim to maintain good health to cherish moments with your family and experience joy, money will become indispensable for securing that health.

Students should pay full cost for their own study, because university education benefits individuals rather than society. To what extent do you agree or disagree.
There is a common belief that in university education, all fees for their own study should be paid by pupils because personal university advantages are more than that in social life. In my opinion, I predominantly disagree with this statement for the reasons of finance and balance, which will elaborate on the reasons.
