Government investment in the arts, such as music and theatre, is a waste of money. Governments must invest this money in public services instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

In general, people

view

things differently, many people believe that the

government

should provide subsidies in public

services

instead

of the

arts

like the music and film industry because it is very extravagant. From my point of

view

, I agree to a limited extent with

this

statement. In the following paragraphs, the cases and examples will help support my opinion. On the one hand, it can be seen that an increasing number of people encounter some serious social problems because they cannot access public

services

equally.

For instance

, my grandparents, who live in a remote area were far from civilization, so they cannot totally receive social welfare from the

government

,

such

as public health care.

Therefore

, due to the authority, the

government

should provide accessible

services

for their citizen, Especially, the elders who live in the countryside.

On the other hand

, it is true to say that the governments should not develop only one aspect, but they must take serious action with other problems in their country,

such

as

arts

.

For example

, in my country, Thailand, it is undeniable that the music industry is hardly sponsored by the

government

.

Thus

, it is not famous overseas. In my

view

, it is significant for the

government

to take part in

this

issue and should pay more attention to looking after the

arts

. To sum up, I personally agree that

government

should not only spend their money on social

services

, but they should

also

develop the

arts

industry. The cases and examples mentioned above have supported my point of

view

to the best.
