We cannot help everyone in the world that needs help, so we should only be concerned with our own communities and countries. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

Since helping everyone and solving all

problems

are unattainable, it is suggested to solely focus on

issues

within

one

's community.

Although

I acknowledge the reasons based on which

this

mentality is formed, I do not reckon

this

would be the ideal approach. On the

one

hand, there are several reasons why people do not have a fondness to allocate their financial resources to global

issues

.

Firstly

, people pay taxes and collaborate in the country's revenue generation;

therefore

, they are entitled to profit from these financial resources.

This

means that governments have to prioritize national

problems

over international ones.

Secondly

, just because these actions are labelled global help, does not mean to say nations are exclusively providing resources to tackle pressing

issues

. The history of slavery is an exemplary example of nations that were supposed to help other people but exploited

this

chance and swindled local societies with inadequate money to work in their favour.

However

, working with other communities can bring about significant benefits to both individuals and the whole globe. Regarding individuals, by

can learn about other cultures, customs, and heritage.

This

can help them to cement a meaningful relationship with different walks of life, ultimately cultivating the seed of empathy among societies.

Moreover

, local

problems

usually go a long way toward causing a global issue.

Therefore

, it is better to provide sources from all around the world in order to prevent these setbacks from

up. Take rainforests

for example

, lodging and overgrazing, which caused the extinction of these vegetation, were not once considered to have detrimental effects on other communities.

However

, nowadays, constant concern about pollution and Eath's heightened temperature is proven to have a positive correlation with these previous exploitations. In conclusion,

while

focusing on the

problems

of

one

's nation may seem more appealing at

first,

the long-term consequences of

problems

necessitate individuals to work collectively, and require a global collaboration for

issues

to be addressed.
