Some people think that the Olympic Games can bring nations together. Others, however, think that it is a waste of money. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. Write an essay with no less than 250 words.

Recently, public opinion has been divided over the importance of the annual Olympic

event

held in certain

countries

. Some people see the Olympics as a means to bring peace to many

countries

,

while

others think it's just a wasteful

event

and there are many aspects of human life that need to be improved. The following paragraph discusses both views and expresses my personal opinion that

money

should be spent in other areas than hosting events. On the one hand, for some, there is a reason why the Olympics can bring peace to the nations of the world. First of all, the Olympic Games is a grand

event

in which most

countries

in the world participate.

This

event

provides a space for friends from various

countries

to meet and start communicating.

Second,

the situation is seen as providing many opportunities for

countries

to meet and talk.

For example

, before the host country starts a game or competition, all athletes gather in one hall to have dinner together. They usually use

this

moment to talk and have some exchanges so that the participants get to know each other.

Therefore

, it is believed that it can unite different regions. Others,

however

, felt the incident was considered a waste of

money

when other parts of life should be prioritized. The main reason behind

this

is that there are often

countries

that compete and are still classified as poor

countries

. Even worse is a country hosting the

event

.

For example

,

according to

BBC News 2020, Indonesia spends 40% of its annual income, is tax allocated to activity,

while

some parts of Indonesia still suffer from hunger.

Therefore

,

instead

of bringing benefits to the local people,

this

incident has made their living conditions worse. In conclusion,

while

some believe that the Olympics are considered beneficial and bring different

countries

together, others believe that it is just a waste of a lot of

money

. Both sides have their own views. I personally agree with the latter statement, it's just a waste of

money

.
