A lot of places in the world rely on tourism as a main source of income. Unfortunately, tourism can also be a source of problems if it is not managed correctly.

Describe the advantages and disadvantages of tourism in the modern world. Do you think that benefits of tourism outweigh its drawbacks?

 

It is a known fact that tourism is very crucial for world economy and it is a very important industry of the 21st century. Tourism is a double literally a double-edged sword. This essay will outline the diversities that tourism offers as the main merit and the loss and vandalism of old monuments as the main disadvantage.

India as a nation is a very diverse state with diametrically opposite castes, creeds, races, sexual orientations, socio-economics, physical statistics and ideologies. India is a completely heterogeneous nation state and it is indeed different from almost all the homogeneous countries across the world. There is no particular caste, creed or race in India. For example, every hundred kilometres that we travel in India is a new place altogether. The language, the castes, the beliefs, the customs and the traditions among other things all change. This has resulted in India being known as the most eclectic nation in the world and that India cannot be described but felt. India is an experience and one has to be there to know it. 

On the contrary, inconsiderate tourism has its share of demerits like loss and vandalism coming about from stealing, pilferage and smuggling of historical artifacts and the poor use of tourist sites. Many tourists are very oblivion to the mess and improper use of the premises they visit and are careless and do not respect the heirlooms of these nations. Some even go as far as totally destroying the places of interest without the least worry. For example, there have been frequent reports of classical paintings and national treasures being pilfered and smuggled from exhibitions and museums across the world. As a result, many of these places which would have been otherwise open to the general public have now been reserved for a few and many have shut down their viewing altogether.

In conclusion, tourism is definitely and amazing industry and also an awesome way to get to know people and cultures from across the world. Furthermore, tourism if handled and managed well is a beautiful vocation. However, it has its pros and cons and, in my opinion, I completely believe that the advantages of tourism as a whole far outweighs the disadvantages for it just needs better supervision and foolproof management.

As most people spend a major part of their adult life at work, job satisfaction is an important element of individual wellbeing. What factors contribute to job satisfaction?  How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers?   The gratification in a profession plays a primary role in an adult’s life, as a majority of the people spend their time at work. This essay will first discuss components which contribute to satisfaction of employees and it will then deliberate the question of how pragmatic the expectations of job satisfaction are, that workers experience at their organizations.

Additionally, the motivating words by fellow mates at the company induces fervour and gaiety, thereby leading to improved performances. In a ...

Some people believe that teaching children at home is best for child’s development while others think that it is important for children to go to school. Discuss the advantages of both methods and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.   Some people advocate that educating kids at home is best for child growth and progress while others prefer schooling. This essay will explain the benefits of both the ways. I am of the firm belief that education at school instills discipline in kids and makes them self-dependent as it allows kids to engage in social interactions in addition to gaining knowledge from books and teachers.   The benefit of education at home are numerous but the most important is that children are exposed to a homely environment and they can learn things by observing at home. Parents can specifically and individually focus on kids while teaching them at home. Practical dem...

Paying all the workers the same salaries in a company promotes harmony and respect amongst colleagues. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Paying all the workers the same salaries in a company promotes harmony and respect amongst colleagues. To what extent do you agree or disagree?   There is a section of the working populace who believes that disbursing equal remuneration is what keeps employees cordial and reverent towards each other and consequently attached to an organisation. I completely disagree with this notion and this essay will elaborate on the following as my reasons. Firstly, there will be a very cold and dissatisfied workforce and secondly since the economics is about being equal there will be no motivation.   To be giving every employee the same pay is like feeding an elephant and a goat the same amount of fodder. One of them is not going to have a stomach full or one of them is going to waste it. This clearly illustrates the imbalance between two differently abled entities. A similar imbalance at the workplace will create numerous problems for the staff and the management which in turn wi...
