International Friendship Day - Our World

Being a good ambassador of Singapore is not difficult.I should be open to cultural diversity all around the world and be able to understand it. I must also strive to promote Singapore's national interests and always portrait their best image as Singaporeans whenever i am overseas. Besides that, being an ambassador, I must work hard and contribute to the society and if i have the chance to work overseas in the future, I would learn from them and bring the knowledge back to Singapore and implement on our our country thus improving Singapore.

Countries form alliances to protect its own national interest, both military and economically. Singapore is small against countries such like the USA,USSR and Japan. Therefore, it is much at a disadvantage in an event of a war. Alliances help Singapore as if it was to be involved in a world, its alliances would back her up and help her. Alliances also help to promote peace as if there were conflicts between countries,peace can be negotiate instead of moving into war.Some alliances including Singapore are, ASEAN and the UN.

Fostering close ties with other countries benefited Singapore much over the years. Fostering ties can help to deal with international problems under one domain. Countries sit down together for conferences and meetings to discuss what can be done to improve these situation. Some examples would be like human and drug trafficking and nabbing of illegal or criminal immigrants. Furthermore, Singapore can also help to improve the environment through environmental talks and seminars.

Some of the things which untie nations together would be trade and common interest. One example would be the Olympics games which not only benefit the hosting country, but also the neighbouring countries. The games boost the tourism rate as ambassadors from all the other parts of the world would come down and support for their own countries. Besides that, uniting nations together would form a common market and thus boosting the world economy going up. The respective countries benefit as the other parts of the world would demand for its goods.
