In the present world globalization has been introduced with a view to extending borderless market. It creats an integrated global economy which influences both economical and social relations among the countries of the world. Because of globalization a country can be benefited in many ways including free market, trade, commerce, culture, employment opportunities and so many.Mainly the developed countries are highly benefited globalization. The globalization process in south Asia was introduced to increase economic growth, But it is a matter of sorrow that the capitalist countries are becoming richer day by day and the poor countries are becoming poorer.

Illiteracy

The state of being unable to read and write is known as illiteracy. There are many problems in our country. Illiteracy is a great problem and curse for our country. We know that, Education is the back bone of a nation. No nation can prosper without education. So it is essential to move against illiteracy in order to develop our country. Illiteracy is the root of all backwardness of our country. It is a matter of great regret that only one of our total populations is literate. Of course there are many people who can write their names. They are not considered as educated. Where there is a will, there is a way-is a proverb.  It is not impossible to remove illiteracy. We should work hand to hand to remove illiteracy. We should also need to create public awareness. Then all of our people will gradually be literate.

A nuclear family

I live in Mymensingh city with my parents. I live in a nuclear family. But I have relatives and other family members in the villages. Previously my parents lived with my grandparents in the villages. And it was an extended family. In a nuclear family, there are a very few people. So there are less noise, work and responsibility. Everyone in a nuclear family is very close to each other and spends for each other. However, a nuclear family has its disadvantages too. The members of a nuclear family are often too busy to care for others in the family. This often creates tension and gap among the family members.

Air pollution

Air is an important element in our environment. Clean air is essential for life but polluted air is very harmful. Air can be polluted in many ways. One thing that pollutes air is smoke. People also make more smoke by burning wood, bricks, refuse, materials and melting pitch for road construction. In big cities buses, trucks and cars always ply in the streets. They burn petrol and diesel and pollute air by emitting smoke. Serious air- pollution occurs in industrial towns. Mills and factories burn coal, oil and chemicals and emit huge smoke. All kinds of smoke mixes with air and pollutes it. The rotten dead bodies of the animals also pollute air. We become sick by inhaling polluted air. So for healthier and happier life we should try to prevent air pollution.

Dowry system

In our country there are many kinds of unpleasant customs which are against a successful and developed nation. Among these bad habits dowry is the first.  Dowry means property or money brought by a bride to her husband when they marry. Dowry system is the most hateful system in our society. It is a social curse. Usually in our society female children are considered inferior to male children. During marriage ceremony a section of greedy people claim much wealth or money from the guardians of the brides. If the guardians fail to fulfil the demand of their bridegroom, they misbehave with their wives and sometimes torture them seriously. As a result many of them get divorced or commit suicide or are killed by their husbands. This problem must be removed immediately from the society.
