Ladies and gentlemen,
"The hand that gives is better than the hand that receives." We mut bear this in our mind. Actually, the issue of poverty is continuing issue and it should be addressed by all parties. This is because it is part of our social responsibility and this issue is emphasized because it is often the cause for many problems in economical, political and sociall issues. The problem is particularly acute when poverty exists among the urban society. This will give more negative impact compared to those who are living in rural areas.
Ladies and gentlemen,
The impact of poverty raises the symptoms that are not healthy as moral decay among teenagers, drug addiction, prostitution and so forth. Disparities in the socio-economic cause great pressures in their lives. Pressure to get money quickly, resulting in them stealing, robbery, gambling and so forth. In addition, the effects of poverty, family conflict also led to the collapse of the family institution. Urban poverty is mostly comprised of a group of squatters who also present problems in terms of view because it will record an environmental view of the city and could affect the country which is moving towards a developed nation by 2020.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Let usget together and make a donation to decrease the problem of urban poverty. We can get donations from NGOs and associations in our country. In addition, we can provide food such as rice, sugar, oil, milo, sardines, milk and others. We can also help those poor people especially those kids who are lack of proper education materials. We could provide text books, activity book, tationaries and also proper clothes and attine at school. The NGO or the ministry could boats for the needy to earn their living.
Ladies and gentlemen,
With this let us together take appropriate action so that the problem of urban poverty can be solved immediately. All parties should cooperate with the government's recommendations of "Towards Zero Urban Poverty". Thank you.
