homelessness is increasing in many major cities around the world. what do you think are the main causes of this problem and what measures can be taken to solve it ?

Homelessness increases in several big

cities

around the world, and it should be solved. In my perspective, the main reason that affects

this

problem

is

urbanisation

. In fact, some of the solutions provided can lead to overcoming the

problem

. Nowadays,

people

are eager to go to metropolitan

cities

in order to do something for a living.

However

, if the

urbanisation

activities are executed massively, it will result in a vital

problem

: homelessness, in which many

people

don’t have shelter to live.

This

condition is normal in a big

city

due to

the lack of rules focusing on

city

planning, so individuals from the countryside freely move to

cities

without any preparation.

For instance

, everyone dreams of hanging their lives in Jakarta because they envisage that there are many jobs available. Meanwhile, there is no specific rule that provides jobs, so

people

who have been there will do anything to continue their lives,

such

as sleeping on a sidewalk or, in a different case, behaving in a harmful way in order to get money. In terms of solution, the

problem

can be solved in two ways:

first,

by limiting

urbanisation

and promoting another

city

to citizens so they can find an alternative

city

to live in.

Second,

by equipping citizens with economic knowledge, which can overcome the

problem

. Government can facilitate socialisation in some small towns in order to make

people

aware of how important knowledge is, especially about managing money before moving to big

cities

. In conclusion, the

problem

of homeless

people

increasing in

cities

is a result of

urbanisation

that is

not well managed.

However

, if the solution mentioned can be implemented by the government, I believe it can bring a bright future to the citizens.
