Tourism is becoming increasingly important as a source of revenue to many countries, but its disadvantages should not be overlooked. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In the last few years, a number of countries are observed to have tourism as a significant contributor to their economic growth, but it does come with some negativity which can’t be ignored. I echo this notion completely. This essay will first look at benefits tourism brings to a country and then how keeping control on adversities, mitigates impacts.

Not every country attracts tourists but the ones that do have this opportunity, do leverage it to boost its wealth. Visitors from other countries bring in the foreign exchange and increase the cumulative spending power of the region, resulting in a monetary boost to the country’s wealth. For instance, India is a country of myriad cultures and scintillatingly beautiful destinations. Such attractions create innumerable opportunities help locals earn a living, and in turn aids in elevating economic activities. To name some of such opportunities are hotels, amusement parks and shopping malls.

At the same time, enforcing strict rules and regulations on visiting such places are pivotal for keeping the benefits of these holiday sites balanced and bustling else it could all go in vain. Authorities should be in complete charge of the place and take all necessary measures to warrant a safe and secure environment. Every such place should have stringent dos and don’ts that must be followed, and severe penal awards should to be meted out to those who damage and vandalize these exotic tourist premises. Additionally, the government and the local community must work together and cooperatively to safeguard the interests of the region and also the site as a whole for tourists in general.

In conclusion, countries capable of hosting tourists should work on every aspect of their hospitality, with a focused vision to carve out best practices to earn out of it, while keeping adversities in mind as well; because, overlooking the collateral damage of such substantial earnings, will eventually kill the business itself.

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. The factors which lead to job satisfaction include the fair treatment of employees and the constant encouragement by co-workers and managers. This impartial behaviour espouses both positivity as well as confidence in the workers. 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...
