Advertisements are influencing us in a negative way. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

These days, advertisements are a part of daily life, which can be seen from every place including TV, radio, social media, and even in toilets. The companies aim to use it for encouraging
people
to buy their commodities and use services.
Therefore
, sometimes it has an adverse effect on consumers.
However
,
this
essay will explore my perspective, which contradicts the statement and will examine some benefits of it.
First
of all, the
advertisement
is able to generate a vast income for the nation. As it is considered to be a promising medium to promote interesting tourist places and exciting activities.
For example
, the 5 minutes video from the authority of tourists in Thailand called
Thai
smile, which illustrates
Thai
culture, cuisine, and beautiful landmark, attracted a million tourists across the world to visit Thailand resulting in receiving a billion baht to the country and a local economy.
Therefore
, promoting by using the
advertisement
is an effective tool for driving the national economy.
Additionally
, the
advertisement
can inspire and motivate
people
to do something useful for themselves and others.
For instance
, when I was young, it was an unforgettable memory to see the 1-minute video clip from
Thai
life insurance on TV, which the content was about many disabled children singing a song named Que sera to motivate normal
people
, who struggle with obstacles to move on. Nowadays, when I face disappointment, I always rethink the scene in that video, and it is the way to refill my energy. Obviously, it does not only inspire me, but it
also
motivates a vast number of audiences. In conclusion,
although
some
people
believe that the
advertisement
only has negative drawbacks, I argue that numerous benefits can be received from it because its power provides me with the encouragement to living life, and can improve the well-being of
Thai
people
.
