Thesis Statement
The technology and innovation sectors are undeniably growing very rapid in this generation. Meanwhile,
traditional
industries
are being looked over. In my opinion,
traditional
industries
play an important role in a
country
's
identity
, hence why the government should not redirect any investment from it.
First of all, each
country
has their own different definition of '
traditional
'. It has
it's
own uniqueness derived from our ancestors that contributes our
country
's
identity
. It is a plus point for us to benefit from it and making it our strength. That is why, by supporting
traditional
industries
, we also help our
country
to have a deeper value.
Furthermore,
people
who work in
traditional
industries
are mostly those who
don't
have the privilege or skill to contribute in the more modern
industry
. So, by taking away the investment, these
industries
will be put to
and
end, as the
people
who got paid there, became jobless. In addition, these
industries
have fewer to no machines used to work, which leads to less waste and pollution.
In conclusion,
traditional
industries
play a pivotal part in our
country
's
identity
. It also
gave
the opportunity for
people
with fewer skill to have a job, thus more sustainable to the environment. That sums up why the government should continue supporting
traditional
industries
.
