Philippines
The Philippine Island is surrounded by bodies of water and is rich in natural resources.That’s why many are asking especially the youth of today why there are countries like Japan that has been destroyed and devastated during the World War II and yet they easily recovered and is now considered the richest in the East.And why is it our country’s being left behind?But then we know that the progress of one’s country differs from the source of their livelihood,another one is their people.Although it’s a common knowledge that the Philippines is rich in natural resources,from deep down the ocean to the forest.While Japan are not lucky enough to be given by this kind of resources,they were given a community of people that are rich in talent,like us Filipinos they’re also hardworker,honest but well-disciplined.A small country like Taiwan who’s well known before as Formosa was able to upgrade their living status and is now being look upon by other neighboring countries.While the over-populated country of China,are doing very well too.But no matter how rich a country is ,if the people will not take care of it properly,it will just only be put into a waste.Great example is our country,The Philippines.We all knew that we have waters that are rich in sea foods,we used to have a lot of trees and animals in the forest.We were the number one importer of rice but now,little by little,animals become extinct because of hunting,illegal logging,dynamite fishing and the continuing illegal activities that destroys our nature.Come to think of it,isnt nature getting back at us?Yes! and it’s really scary!And the price of it? Flood,soil erosion,the outbreak of different kinds of disease which resulted from death of our countrymen.That’s why we need to act,we need to unite and do something about it.let’s not destroy our forests,let’s not destroy the future of our kids.let’s learn how to be disciplined so we will be able to leave a nice dwelling to our kids,the future generation.The world is such a nice place to live in,let’s take care of it.after all,God created it for the human beings to live here.Let’s all be human and give back something good from what has been given to us.
