English is one
of the most spoken languages in the world and it is the official language in
most countries. English being the global language is also important when it
comes to the technology, trading and business industries, which are important
for countries growth. As our world progresses and become more interconnected to one another, a global language will
be needed.
Singapore, a small country with a small
population, we depend a lot on foreign talents into Singapore. Apart from that,
with the lack of resources in Singapore, we have to seek help from other
countries to improve. Our government will usually send people to other
countries to learn and to gain more sightful experiences so to share with other
Singaporeans. Thus far, with Singapore’s education system, which designed such
that everyone has to learn both English and Mother Tongue in school, it is
helpful when we have such exchange programmes. English can be used as the main
mode of communication.
In addition, with a more globalized world,
there will also be more international students studying in Singapore, through
the education system, it will allow us to communicate well with them. Lastly, I feel that in our globalized world today, it is essential for everyone
to be profound in English as communication is an important key in our life.
