Every developing and underdeveloped country
dream about being developed countries someday in the future. However, they do
not reform, do not change any system that actually causes not to grow.
Firstly, every underdeveloped and
developing country should realize that without the didactic education system,
no system carries them upwards to developed countries level.
An educated workforce is a critical element
in the development. Students who can speak a foreign language, can have high
math knowledge, can think like a philosopher, can have a grasp of history, have
willings to read books without parents’ pressure would develop their countries.
As we see above in the picture, the
countries in which the education system is much better than other countries are
recently developing faster than in other countries. Sweden, Canada, Singapore,
South Korea, Japan, Poland, Germany, for instance, look brighter than other
countries because the new generations are taught how to use their brains, how
to solve problems, how to educate themselves, and how important knowledge is.
A math
problem is not only about math, but it also teaches us how we can solve a daily
life problem. Namely, math problems bring us thinking and learning ability.
Reading a
novel is not only training our reading ability but also improving our
imagination. For example, I love Gabriel Garcia and his novels. When I read his
novels, I learnt about the South American economy and South American political
issues. Gabriel Garcia also published his travel notes about Soviet Russia.
When I read it, I understood how people lived under communist regimes.
In short,
a sound education system gets us to adopt many significant habits and
abilities. That is the answer why many people want to study at Harvard, MIT, or
Cambridge. Because we believe that a good university allows us to have lots of
significant knowledge that many companies request. That is true, but there is a
fundamental question rising here, “ Why does not every country have a Harvard
or MIT?”
Every
country does not have a Harvard because the political system does not care
about education individuals. Educated individuals will request the real
democracy, real institutions; educated people will query the system and
politicians, will speak up about corruption and stupid rules, will raise their
voice against injustice. That is why politicians do not work on a better
education system.
To sump
up, every nation should request a high and free education system. No matter
what politicians say, they had better keep asking until they have it.
***Note: Education should be free for everyone; it is a
right. Everyone, no matter their social class, had better reach a high-quality
education system like rich people. Otherwise, no matter how democratic a
country is, still, that country has a class system, which is not democratic at
all.
