The similarities between other nations are witnessing a significant increase as there are a large number of users globally get access to information resources through the same media. Although some people believe that this trend has the benefits, I personally state that the disadvantages is more remarkable.

Admittedly, the positive influences of this reality are undeniable as by having more information about one nation worldwide, people stand a better opportunity to have more experiences in distinct national customs, cuisine and education.  They are able to widen their knowledge about different regions in the world and the new eating, living habits are initially formed instead of following the culture.

On the other hand, as the existence of the new living lifestyle in one nation, the original tradition value may be replaced or disappeared. Media users spend most of their leisure time exploring more about the outstanding methods which are suitable for them to improve their standard of living or satisfy their living experience. For instance, the new generation especially teenagers nowadays tend to keep abreast of unique trends, this means gradually the awareness of residents toward upholding traditions is nonexistent.

Furthermore, some sensitive information represented of a country in the media sometimes is offensive to others nations. Some customs in a specific region is considered to be the cultural value but to some nations they believe it as the cultural deterioration. The content is straightforwardly accessible though some TV channels leading to some unexpected consequences of audiences ‘s misunderstandings, especially the youth who are immature enough to comprehend the meanings of the programs.

In conclusion, the drawbacks of this reality are decimating the national living of the residents and also creating the invisible barriers of the relationships between countries and the solutions of minimizing this problem should be the top priority.
