An increasing number of professionals, such as doctors and teachers, are leaving their own poorer countries to work in developed countries. What are the reasons behind this trend? What solutions can you suggest to deal with this situation? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant example from your own knowledge.
The contemporary issue that workers migrating to more developed nations in search of a greener pasture has increased significantly, which has raised a substantial concern. Many people believe this causes a series of problems, such as labor shortages, as well as the workforce being stretched thin. However, the government holds the key to addressing this by implementing years of mandatory service to the home and improving the standard of living in these developing nations. Examining this problem and exploring possible solutions will give an insightful overview of this subject matter.

Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding changes. Others, However, think that change is always a good thing. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Change is a part of our daily lives and whether is it is embraced or not, change is unavoidable. There are diametrically opposing views on this topic as some people believe that change is always beneficial to our lives while others are of the opinion that this isn't a good thing, and sticking to one routine is better. I would argue that although there are several merits of taking risks, this isn't always the a good thing.

Some people prefer to live in hot climate, while others like to live in cold climate.Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
To live under a certain temperature, whether it is a hot or cold climate, is a preference of each person. There are some reasons why they choose to be burning or freezing. They may choose it out of habit, maybe their hometown is warm hence they are more resilient in sweating than shivering. Another reason is from their own bodies, some people may have a faster metabolism thus they need wintry air outside of their body. In explaining both views, I will take my country, Indonesia as an example, since it has both tropical cities like Surabaya and Semarang, and chilly towns like Temanggung and Bogor.
