Hello, everyone. Last week, we talked about the cause of urbanisation. Today, I'll discuss its advantages and disadvantages. Urbanisation can bring about a lot of benefits. It can offer people from rural areas not only opportunities for better-paid jobs, but also access to schools, hospitals and other social services. As a result, people's overall standard of living can improve. People in rural areas tend to be more conservative and follow old-fashioned practices like child marriage and gender discrimination. The process of urbanisation can actually change their mindset and help them to accept more progressive ideas.

However, there are also some obvious disadvantages. High rates of urbanisation can contribute to more crime in big cities. Although many people benefit, not all get the opportunity of a good and stable job. Unemployed, people are more likely to engage in robbery, kidnapping, murder and other illegal activities. Another problem caused by urbanisation is the shortage of affordable housing in big cities, which can result in growth of slums with no sanitation or drinking water. In addition, urbanisation leads to the shift of the working population from agriculture to industries. Labour shortages in rural areas are likely to result in a decrease in agricultural and food production as well. To sum up urbanisation can bring social and health benefits; however, it also has its own drawbacks. I've only discussed some of them. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to raise them and I'll try my best to answer them.

Chào mọi người. Tuần trước chúng ta đã nói về nguyên nhân của quá trình đô thị hóa. Trong tuần này, tôi sẽ thảo luận về những thuận lợi và khó khăn của quá trình đô thị hóa. Quá trình đô thị hóa có thể mang lại rất nhiều lợi ích. Nó có thể mang tới cho người dân từ nông thôn không chỉ cơ hội tìm kiếm công việc lương cao hơn mà còn cơ hội tiếp cận với trường học, bệnh viện và nhiều dịch vụ xã hội khác. Kết quả là, chất lượng cuộc sống của người dân nói chung được cải thiện. Người dân ở nông thôn có xu hướng bảo thủ hơn và theo các phong tục lỗi thời như việc kết hôn của con cái hay phân biệt đối xử về giới. Quá trình đô thị hóa có thể thay đổi tư duy và giúp họ tiếp thu nhiều ý tưởng tiến bộ hơn.

Tuy nhiên, cũng có những bất lợi rõ nét. Tỉ lệ đô thị hóa cao có thể góp phần dẫn tới nhiều tội phạm hơn ở các thành phố lớn. Mặc dù nhiều người được lợi nhưng không phải tất cả trong số họ có được cơ hội tìm được một công việc tốt và ổn định. Những người thất nghiệp có nhiều khả năng sẽ sa vào trộm cướp, bắt cóc, giết người và nhiều hành vi phi pháp khác. Một vấn đề khác gây ra bởi đô thị hóa là thiếu nhà giá hợp lý ở các thành phố lớn, điều này làm gia tăng các khu ổ chuột không đủ điều kiện vệ sinh hoặc nước sạch để uống. Ngoài ra, quá trình đô thị hóa cũng dẫn đến sự dịch chuyển lao động từ ngành nông nghiệp sang các ngành công nghiệp. Thiếu lao động ở các khu vực nông thôn chắc chắn sẽ gây ra sụt giảm năng suất nông nghiệp và cả thực phẩm. Tóm lại, quá trình đô thị hóa có thể mang lại những lợi ích về mặt sức khỏe và xã hội nhưng cũng có những trở ngại của riêng nó. Tôi mới chỉ thảo luận một vài trong số những trở ngại đó. Nếu các bạn có bất kì câu hỏi hay bình luận nào, xin hãy thoải mái đưa ra, và tôi sẽ cố gắng hết sức để trả lời chúng.

Do you agree or disagree with them? - ||I agree with the statements in exercise 4.|| Give examples to support your point of view. - ||I live in a small village in the Central of Vietnam. In the past, most || ||of people in my village were farmers, fishermen or carpenters. || ||Due to the fact that we often suffer from floods all year round, people || ||in my village are quite poor. Young people no longer want to stay at|| ||their home village and live a poor life, so many of them move to big || ||cities or go to Korea or Japan to find good jobs with higher salaries. || ||Only few middle-aged villagers still work in the farms, so we sometimes|| ||can't meet our demand for food and we need to buy rice and other || ||agricultural products. I think these things happened in my village and || ||lots of other rural areas in Vietnam due to the process of urbanisation. ||
