LIVING IN THE CITY

It is difficult to decide where we want to live. Many people said that countryside is the best choice to spend their life while others had opposite view.In fact, everyone likes to live in a place which provides good qualities of life. In my opinion, the perfect place to live is big city because of its practical conveniences and great job opportunities.

First, living in the city we can enjoy more convenient and perfect services of transportation, education, health care, and entertainment. Big city has cheap public transport system with many kinds of means especially buses. Moving by bus is very safe and economical so city residents especially students and workers tent to use public transportation so that they can save more money. In addition, big city provides good educational system. In fact, most of the famous universities and excellent colleges and foreign language school are located in the city. So when we live here, we have a lot of chances to study further with professional methods. We can also attend night classes in order to improve our knowledge and skills. Also, most best and well-equipped hospitals are built in the cities such as Tu Du, Cho Ray, Saint point. It is easy for us to go to the hospital quickly when necessary. Besides, there are many kinds of entertainment which are suitable for everyone . The streets seem never to sleep and full of activities even late at night. There are a lot of coffee shops, shoping centers, theatres and cinemas. So after a hard working day, we can go out with our friends to some interesting places so that we can relax, have lot of fun and enjoy life. It is good to spend our life in a big city.

Another reason that living in the city is a best choice is great job opportunities. A big city is a political and economic centre of a country so it will provide us with better conditions and good environment to develop our career and have better chance to success. There are many big companies, offices, factories, groups, are concentrated on big city not only the internal ones but also the one coming from foreign countries so it is easy to do business and earn money. IT is also easy to solve the unemployment problem and get more suitable jobs to different people with different background knowledge and skills. For example, for one who have not got a certificate there is still work for them such as riding a pedi cab or selling something that does not need a big capital in some market over the city. For one with degree, a big city is the terrific place for them. It is not difficult for them to find a good job with high salary and promotion. In Ho Chi Minh city, for instance, Cho Ray hospital, Dong A bank, VUS, and some famous joint venture companies always attract masters , doctors, engineers. If people want to get better job opportunities ,they should live in developing cities.

Many people complained that living environment of big city is too polluted to live. It is true that city's residents have to suffer from many kinds of pollution. The dramatically increas of traffic congestion such as trucks, buses, taxis, motorbikes cause not only air pollution but also noise pollution. In addition, as a result of industrialization many factories and industrial centres are building and discharging polluted fuel and garbage. However, now the factories are being transfered from city out to suburb so the pollution will be reduce. Also, the government has had a lot of policies and adjustment to deal with environmental pollution in order to keep green, clean, and beautiful country. For example, the government allows people to use fresh material for product and traffic, solar power for petrol, and supermarket now use paper bags instead plastic bags. Besides, authorities have organized much useful extra-activity, which are responding strongly especially cycling for the environment to make people more aware of bad effects of pollution.

In conclusion, living in big city is good not only for our career but also for our life. People live here can enjoy many kinds of practical services of high living standard and there are also many jobs and contacts waiting for them. If people want to get better life qualities, big city is a perfect place for them.
