Diary Entry



In this diary entry I will talk about the social problems that affects all countries. Around the world. I will talk about this world topic because last month I travelled to Brazil, a country where is living one of my most personal friends. To write this diary entry, I will write it in a serious tone and obviously in a past and informal or semi-formal register.
In my trip, my friend showed me there, how Brazil looks like with those different realities of lifestyle about brazilian population. So I decided to give my point of view about this. More over, I must say that I did an investigation about the topic, on internet to take more and most clear knowledge about it. Also I took from the famous page of britain, BBC, and it said that the poverty is something that affects the Latin-American and African countries.

Dear Diary:
                   Last month I heard about the great problem that is happening in Latin America and Africa.

In my trip last month, I went to brazil, and the friend who received methere, told me that there are ba lot of people who work all day and every day a week, but they receive a salary of $4 per day, and sometimes and somewhere less. Poverty is a problem around the world that is affecting to all the people in all countries. These people, the most of the times, cant have access to a basic sanitation, something that producess a lot of sickness.

He invited me to take a trip around the cit. First we went to the area where the big houses and buildings are completely normal, but fifteen minutes later he took me to a place where the little houses and dirty streets were different to the other area. The styles of life of people who live in that area and in the other area, are completely different. Also he told me that this is a social problem that is happening in Chile, Argentina, Perú etc, also in Africa.

I think that we, like all the people around the world, have to help all those countries to improve the life style of all people and the development of our world. A report of the BBC in England, says that more than third of the people in the region remained vulnerable, this mentions the sickness and less access to basic sanitation. This is a consequence that poverty produces, something that we must fix. However I think and I said to my friend that the main responsability to control this problem is of the goverment. Goverments have to make some equal style of life of different people inside their countries. Finally, I think that if all goverments of all those countries solve this social problem, the development of our world can be better and in better conditions for all the people.
