If I become Primeminister

Powered by Froala Editor

The Prime Minister of Bangladesh is the head of the government having the supreme executive power. Naturally, much of the country’s welfare and development depends on the wish of Prime Minister. Human life is full of dreams. Most of the time, it travels in the dreamland. But all the dreams do not come true. If I were the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, I would do many things for the development of my country. I would make the country as self-reliant. I would unite and inspire the whole nation. Then I would make a realistic plan and ensure good governance and better management.

I would do things on a priority basis. Our country is an undeveloped country. It is surrounded by poverty, terrorism, and nepotism, etc. First of all, I would try keeping the prices of essential commodities under control. Then I would ensure the rule of justice. I would instruct the police department to work independently to bring the criminals to justice. I would offer a terrorism and nepotism free society for the people of Bangladesh. I would strictly follow the principle of “reward for the good and punishment for the bad”. Restoration of law and order would be my topmost priority. The freedom of press and independence of the judiciary would be guaranteed at any cost.

Another priority of mine would be to ensure a democratic atmosphere everywhere. I would ensure a democratic, transparent, accountable and responsible government for the real welfare of people. I would curb terrorism with an iron hand. The election commission, public service commission, and anti-corruption would be given full autonomy. I would never treat any case with petty political and partisan angle. I would create such an environment so that freedom of expression is ensured. Education is the precondition of development. If I were the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, I would make the education compulsory for all. I would also make education free for both boys and girls up-to-the higher secondary level.

Powered by Froala Editor

Grameen Bank is an institution that has earned much fame for its in the welfare of poor and helpless people or poverty reduction in Bangladesh. It is credited with the development and proper implementation of a system called Micro Credit. That system has been found much effective in the social empowerment of the helpless people. Grameen Bank was established by Professor Mohammod Younus in1983. During his work as a professor of the Department of Economics at the University of Chittagong, it occurred to him that the economics condition of the poor and helpless people could be improved if they are given an only small amount of loans. As a test run, he provided loans to some poor women of the village Jobra. He gained confidence when the borrowers were able to return the money with profit. They had invested the money in making cane and wicker chairs and earn profit by selling them. Being confident by his success in the village Jobra, he quit his job in the University of Chittagong, came to Dhaka and set up the Grameen Bank on 1st October 1983, at the village Jobra, he extended a total of $27 to 42 woman.

Now the total distribution of loan of Grameen Bank has stood at 29000 crore taka. The rate of loan recovery is about 98.85%. There are about 2226 branches of Grameen Bank in the whole country and the bank has already provided loan to abou66 lakh borrowers in 71,371 rural communities. About 18,795 people work at Grameen Bank at present.

Flyover

Powered by Froala Editor

Flyover is a road or railway that is built over another. It allows both routes to cross smoothly. It is a modern engineering invention which is considered a solution to traffic jam. Usually, in the big, the number of vehicles is increasing every day. As a result, there occurs a huge traffic Jam as these existing roads cannot provide adequate space for all the vehicles. It is not possible to find out new Place to build new roads, either. For this reason, experts have thought about the construction of flyovers which may maintain smooth communication. In Dhaka city, we have some flyovers. We have Khilgaon flyover, Jatrabari flyover, Kuril flyover, Moghbazar flyover, etc. These flyovers have reduced our traffic jam significantly in some areas. But still, we need more flyovers in Dhaka city. Dhaka is a populous city. Traffic jam prevails everywhere and it disrupts our normal life. Our development work is largely hampered owing to traffic jam. To reduce it more flyovers are badly needed. We no more expect a city where people spend most of the time and in vehicles stuck up in traffic jams. We want to see a city where people can reach their destinations at the expected time. Flyovers also reduce the scope for a mass transit system and a bus rapid transit that would have a much bigger impact on the severe traffic dilemma. In the era of globalization and technological advancement, we cannot lag behind. Like other different countries of the world, we need more and more flyovers in order to have easy and Jam-free communication.

Global Warming

Powered by Froala Editor

It is the continuous rise in warming of the earth’s surface due to the increased level of carbon dioxide gas in the environment. Global Warming has become a big issue which need to solved that needs positive initiation by countries all over the world. With a gradual increase, the earth’s temperature calls various threats as well as makes the and makes life’s existence. It enhances the gradual and permanent changes in the earth’s climate and thus affecting nature’s balance.

As the Earth gets hotter, it causes many problems and upsets how nature works. This heat change makes long-term differences in our weather, affecting nature. The rise in carbon dioxide (CO2) has big impacts too.

Rise in the CO2 level, the earth impacts the human life to a g level through continued heat waves, sudden occurrence of a strong storms, unpredictable and unexpected cyclone, damage to ozone layer, floods, the heavy rain, drought, lack, and food, diseases, death etc. It has researched that increasing emissions of CO2 in the atmosphere is because of the nonstop burning of constantans, usage of fertilizers, cutting forests, extra use of electricity, gases used in refrigerator etc. According to the e statistics, it has noted that by 2020 global Warming may boom its bad effects if it is not taken under control as COemissions are increasing continuously.

The increasing level of COcauses greenhouse effect on the earth in which all the greenhouse gases (water vapour, CO2, methane, ozone) absorbs thermal radiation, which in turn re-radiated to all directions and come back to earth surface causing increase in the temperature of earth surface and also lead to global Warming.

In order to stop the life threatening effects of the global Warming, we should take a permanent break from all the bad habits causing increase in the CO2 level and other green house gases leading to the green house effect and then earth surface warming. We should stop deforestation, lessen the use of electricity, stop the burning of wood, etc.

Gender Discrimination

Powered by Froala Editor

Gender discrimination refers to the unequal treatment of individuals based on their gender. This can manifest in a variety of ways, including in the workplace, in education, and in society more broadly.

In the workplace, women may be paid less than men for doing the same job, may be passed over for promotions, and may face harassment or discrimination from their colleagues or supervisors. This can lead to a lack of representation of women in leadership positions and a lack of economic security for women.


In education, girls may face discrimination in the form of lack of access to education, or may be encouraged to pursue certain subjects or careers that are traditionally seen as "female" rather than given the opportunity to pursue their own interests. This can limit their future opportunities and earnings potential.

Discrimination also happens in society, sometimes it's subtle, and sometimes it's overt. Women may be expected to conform to certain societal norms and stereotypes, such as being caretakers and homemakers, rather than being encouraged to pursue their own goals and aspirations. This can limit their ability to fully participate in society and contribute to a culture that values men over women.

Gender discrimination is a serious issue that affects individuals, families, and society as a whole. It is important for all of us to be aware of the ways in which discrimination can manifest and to actively work to dismantle discrimination in all its forms. This can include educating ourselves and others, supporting women-led initiatives, and advocating for policy changes that promote equality for all.

Dishonest man in society

Powered by Froala Editor

In the intricate tapestry of society, the dishonest man lurks like a shadow, weaving webs of deceit and manipulation that threaten the fabric of trust and integrity. Despite the veneer of charm or charisma that may cloak his actions, the dishonest man ultimately undermines the foundations upon which social harmony is built, leaving behind a trail of broken promises and shattered relationships.

At the heart of the dishonest man's modus operandi lies a fundamental lack of integrity and moral compass. Driven by selfish desires or misguided ambitions, he employs deception as a means to achieve his ends, often at the expense of others. Whether it's through lies, manipulation, or betrayal, he seeks to gain advantage or evade accountability, heedless of the consequences his actions may have on those around him.

The dishonest man is a master of disguise, adept at concealing his true intentions behind a facade of false sincerity or charm. He may present himself as a trustworthy friend or ally, only to reveal his true colors when it suits his purposes. His words are honeyed, his promises empty, as he spins elaborate tales to manipulate and exploit the trust of others for his own gain.

Yet, for all his cunning and deceit, the dishonest man is ultimately a prisoner of his own making. His web of lies may ensnare others momentarily, but in the end, truth has a way of surfacing, exposing his deception for what it is. And while he may succeed in achieving short-term gains through his dishonesty, the long-term consequences of his actions often prove far more damaging, eroding trust, sowing discord, and tarnishing his reputation irreparably.

Moreover, the presence of dishonest individuals in society erodes the very foundations of trust and cooperation upon which communities rely. When deceit becomes the norm rather than the exception, social bonds fray, and cynicism takes root, breeding a culture of suspicion and paranoia that undermines the collective well-being of all. In such a society, genuine connections are rare, and the pursuit of self-interest reigns supreme, leaving little room for empathy, compassion, or genuine human connection.

In conclusion, the presence of dishonest individuals in society poses a significant threat to the values of integrity, trust, and cooperation upon which social harmony depends. Whether through lies, manipulation, or betrayal, the dishonest man undermines the foundations of trust and integrity, leaving behind a trail of broken relationships and shattered trust. It is only through a collective commitment to honesty, transparency, and accountability that we can hope to counteract the corrosive influence of dishonesty and cultivate a society built on principles of trust, integrity, and mutual respect.

A beautiful lady

Powered by Froala Editor

A beautiful woman is not just about the physical appearance that catches the eye. Her beauty is a blend of her inner qualities, values, and actions, more than what is just seen on the surface. She carries a radiant smile that can light up the gloomiest day, and her eyes hold a depth of kindness and compassion that makes people around her feel valued. Her strength is admirable, not just the physical kind, but the strength of character, which she shows in difficult times. She is intelligent, always eager to learn new things, and not afraid to share her knowledge with others. Her beauty shines when she shows respect to everyone, regardless of their age or status. She is confident, yet humble; she knows her worth but never shows off. She is a good listener and a trusted friend, always ready to lend a helping hand. A beautiful woman is also brave. She stands up for what she believes in, even if it means standing alone. She is patient and understanding, giving others the chance to grow and learn. Her beauty is reflected in her love for nature and all living things. Above all, a beautiful woman is one who loves herself, embraces her flaws, and uses them to become a better person. She is a source of inspiration, a beacon of hope, and a symbol of love. A truly beautiful woman is beautiful inside and out.

Gardening 

Powered by Froala Editor

Gardening is a fun and rewarding activity that allows us to interact with nature while also beautifying our surroundings. It involves growing and taking care of plants, which can range from flowers and shrubs to fruits and vegetables. This activity not only adds color and life to our homes but also has several benefits. Gardening can help us relax and reduce stress, as it requires our focus and takes our minds off everyday worries. It’s like a workout too, as it involves physical tasks like digging, planting, weeding, and watering. Moreover, if we grow fruits and vegetables, it provides fresh and healthy food that is good for our bodies. It’s always exciting to watch plants grow from seeds and blossom into beautiful flowers or bear tasty fruits. Gardening also teaches us patience, as plants take time to grow and bloom. We learn the importance of caring for other living things and how every plant needs different care. For instance, some plants need lots of sunlight, while others thrive in the shade. Some need plenty of water, while others do better in dry soil. By gardening, we also learn about the different seasons, as some plants grow best in certain times of the year. In conclusion, gardening is a wonderful hobby that benefits us in many ways, making our lives healthier, happier, and more colorful.

A sunny morning

Powered by Froala Editor

As the first rays of sunlight gently caress the earth, a sense of warmth and vitality fills the air, heralding the arrival of a new day. On a sunny morning, nature awakens with a renewed energy, casting its golden glow upon the world and inviting all who behold it to embrace the beauty and promise of the day ahead.

The warmth of the sun's rays is more than just a physical sensation; it is a metaphorical embrace, a reminder of the endless possibilities that lie before us. In the soft light of dawn, the world seems to come alive, bathed in hues of gold and amber that infuse even the simplest of scenes with a sense of magic and wonder.

On a sunny morning, the air is crisp and invigorating, filled with the scent of dew-kissed grass and blooming flowers. Birds greet the day with joyful melodies, their songs mingling with the gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze. It is a symphony of nature's creation, a harmonious blend of sound and scent that envelops the senses and stirs the soul.

As I step outside into the embrace of the morning sun, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and awe for the beauty that surrounds me. The world seems to hum with life and possibility, each moment brimming with the potential for discovery and adventure. In the soft glow of dawn, even the most mundane tasks take on a sense of purpose and meaning, as I am reminded of the precious gift of each new day.

But perhaps the true magic of a sunny morning lies in its ability to inspire hope and renewal in the human spirit. In the warmth of the sun's embrace, worries and cares seem to melt away, replaced by a sense of optimism and possibility. It is a reminder that no matter what challenges lie ahead, each new day offers the opportunity for growth, transformation, and renewal.

A sunny morning is more than just a break in the clouds; it is a celebration of life, beauty, and the endless possibilities that lie before us. As the sun rises to greet the day, it illuminates the world with its golden light, filling our hearts with warmth and our souls with hope. And as we embrace the beauty of the morning sun, may we be reminded of the boundless potential that lies within each of us, waiting to be awakened and embraced anew with each passing day.

Freedom of Press and Media

Powered by Froala Editor

A democracy is a system wherein power is supposed to lie in the hands of the people. They may choose to exercise this power directly or to elect representatives from amongst their numbers. These representatives then form a governing body such as a parliament.

In order for a democracy to work, it needs to have four solid aspects – free and fair elections, protection of the people’s human rights, the participation of citizens and the rule of law applied equally to everyone. However, without the freedom of the press, all of this is moot.

Freedom of Press in Democracy

There can be no denying the fact that a democracy will only survive if there is freedom of the press or media. Since a democracy depends upon its citizens, these citizens must be well-informed so that they can make political decisions and elect their representatives appropriately. However, it is impossible or creates difficulty for every citizen to go searching for such information themselves.

This is where the press comes in. It falls upon the news media to collect, verify and disseminate the information that can help people make the decisions that allow a democracy to work. As such, the press becomes a powerful tool for the efficient functioning of a democratic government. By reporting verified facts, the press not only allows people to be knowledgeable about what is going on but also acts as a check on the government.

It becomes obvious, then, that the press must be free to do its job. It should not have to face censorship that hides crucial information from the public. The right to freedom of speech and expression also includes the right of the press to the same freedom. If members of the press are intimidated and harassed or are discredited without reason, the people lose the only tool they have to participate effectively in the running of their country.

Conclusion

Without freedom of the press, no government can be considered ‘of the people, by the people and for the people’. Unfortunately, the past few years have seen increasing curbs, direct or indirect, on the media and its ability to report. These curbs have come in the form of harassment, threats and intimidation and are having increasingly disastrous consequences for the dissemination of unbiased information. Unless this trend is reversed, we may see some of the most powerful democracies in the world collapsing soon.

Family bondigs

Powered by Froala Editor

There are many things to be learned in life, such as values, manners, cultural traditions, so on and so forth. Personally from my experiences, I’ve learned so many that I can’t even recall. One of the ones that I do value and that I can honestly say that I believe in the most is the importance of spending time with my family.

In my immediate family, I am the second child out of four girls. Yes, a lot of people do ask my dad how he manages to live with five girls, the fifth being my mom. As a kid, my family and I would go on many what I like to call, “field trips.” These trips would mostly be to simple everyday places, such as the zoo, museums, the beach, places of that sort. A couple of times we went to places out of state, for example, SeaWorld in Ohio and Wisconsin Dells. All these mini vacations used to be so much fun when I was younger, but later as my sisters and I got older, these trips slowly happened less and less, eventually stopping altogether. 

The last vacation I went on with my family was to India in the summer of 2006. Trips to India usually meant going to see my grandparents, but this time I actually went sight seeing too. One of the places I went to was to a city named Mysore. This city is famous for all its ancient palaces and statues, so my dad decided that we should go tour some of them. One of the statues he wanted to visit was this enormous one in the shape of a bull. Now getting to this big bull required walking down about a hundred billion stone steps. After a while, one by one, my sisters and I started complaining, me being the one who complained the most. I kept mentioning how stupid and lame it was to be walking down all those steps just to see a dumb statue. My dad kept telling me that it would be worth it once we got there, but I didn’t care. I just wanted to go back to the hotel. Time went by with my never ending nagging, so my dad just gave up and said we can turn around and leave, so we did. The expression on his face is one that I’ll never forget. It was so full of disappointment and sadness, just having realized that all his girls are grown and aren’t interested in what he finds “cool” anymore. My heart broke a little after seeing it, but my desire to go back was so great that I didn’t say anything. After that day, he never brought up going on another “fieldtrip” again. I felt so bad that I came to a resolution that the next time I visited India with him; I would bring him to Mysore and walk down all those stairs with him so he could see that statue.

Two weeks ago, my dad had to get surgery on both of his legs for excessive vein clots. Over ten veins were pulled out in each leg, leaving both not as strong as they used to be. Climbing down all those steps is now physically impossible for him, so my resolution of taking him back to Mysore is no longer achievable. Not walking that extra bit for my dad is something I’ll always repent because really, how bad would it have been? It certainly wouldn’t have killed me. It would have resulted in his happiness, something that would always be worth the sacrifice.

After that day, I realized how nice it was to have been able to have done stuff together with my family, even if sometimes it was lame or dumb. All of us are very busy now, my parents constantly working trying to make ends meet and my older sister off at college. Most of the time, just me and my two younger sisters are at home doing homework. Those times when my older sister comes down for break and when my parents get time, we all go out to a restaurant or to the movies, small places like that. These outings are nothing like our “fieldtrips,” but they’re still something that mean a lot to me. Being with my family makes me happier than I usually am and it’s something that I’ll always cherish, love, and believe in. 

“Friends, come and go. But family? They’re forever.”

Foreign Aid

Foreign aid refers to the international movement of money, services, or goods from governments or international institutions for the benefit of the receiving country or its citizens. Foreign aid can be fiscal, military, or humanitarian and is considered one of the significant sources of foreign exchange.


Foreign aid is the voluntary movement of money or other resources from one nation to another. The transactions are mostly from developed countries to developing countries. A developing nation typically lacks a strong manufacturing base and is distinguished by a low value of the Human Development Index (HDI). Foreign aid may be offered as a contribution or a loan, which can either be a hard or soft loan. If the loan is in a foreign currency, it is termed as a hard loan.


Summary

Foreign aid is the voluntary movement of resources from one country to another.

Foreign aid may require the transfer of professional advice and training, commodities, or financial resources.

The assistance can be used to advance the political aims of government, allowing it to obtain diplomatic recognition.



Purpose of Foreign Aid

Foreign aid may require the transfer of professional advice and training, or commodities or financial resources. Financial resources can occur in the form of concessional loans or grants, such as export credits. Official Development Assistance (ODA) is the most common form of foreign aid, which is the help provided to support development and to fight poverty. The main source of ODA is the bilateral grants from one country to another, while some of the funding is in the form of loans, and often it is channeled by non-governmental organizations and foreign organizations.

Countries also offer foreign aid in order to improve their own security. Economic aid may also be used to discourage friendly countries from coming under the control of unfriendly governments or paying for the right to set up or use military bases on foreign soil.

Foreign aid can be used to accomplish the political aims of a government, allowing it to obtain diplomatic recognition, to gain respect for its role in international institutions, or to improve the accessibility of its diplomats to foreign countries.

Foreign aid also seeks to promote the exports of a country and spread its literature, culture, or religion. Countries often provide aid to relieve the distress caused by man-made or natural disasters like drought, illness, and conflict. It helps to promote sustainable prosperity, create or reinforce political institutions, and address a range of worldwide concerns, including cancer, terrorism, and other violations, and environmental degradation.

Types of Foreign Aid

1. Tied Aid

Tied aid is a type of foreign aid that must be invested in a country that is providing support or in a group of chosen countries. A developed country can offer a bilateral loan or grant to a developing nation but will be required by the government to invest the money on goods and services produced in that country.

2. Bilateral Aid

Bilateral aid is given directly by one country’s government to that of another country’s government. It occurs when money flows from a country with a developed economy to a country with a developing economy. Bilateral aid is directed by strategic, political, and humanitarian interests. This is meant to further foster democracy, economic growth, peace, and sustainability of long-term programs.

3. Multilateral Aid

Multilateral aid is the support offered by several countries that share funds to foreign organizations such as the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The funds are used to relieve hunger in developing nations. While the sector represents a minority of financial aid of the U.S., the donations provided by the country make up a large proportion of the donor funds obtained by the organizations.

4. Military Aid

Military aid typically allows the recipient country either to procure weapons or security contracts directly from the U.S. In other situations, it actually simplifies the mechanism by enabling the federal government to buy weapons on its own and ship them to military transport.

5. Project Aid

The assistance is known to be project aid when the funds are used to support a certain project, such as a hospital or school.

A winter morning

Powered by Froala Editor

There are six seasons in Bangladesh. Winter is one of the coldest seasons among those six. It’s a foggy morning and different from any other season of the year. There is dew here and there. Also, the surrounding becomes misty and dim. The trees, leaves, tin shades, crops and different environmental objects are fully coated with dew. In the morning the fog becomes so heavy that nothing can be seen within a few distances. But when the sun rises, it becomes a beautiful cozy morning. This season is famous for Pitha-puli, cakes, pies, trendy warm clothes, fresh vegetables etc. There are some benefits of this season. People can work out more than in the summer season. So, they become more fit and able to burn fat fast, allergic patients’ pain reduces, metabolic rate increases, and inflammation decreases. In this season we see two different scenarios both in cities and villages. In rural areas people make a fire to protect themselves from the extremely foggy morning. They mostly have pithas in their breakfast. There is a crowd in front of the kiln to warm them up. They are not privileged with trendy suiters or warm clothes which bring havoc for them. In cities people are busy and it becomes crowded in the morning. They mostly have roadside pithas from Pitha sellers. Also, they are privileged with warm clothes, suiters, jackets, socks, mufflers etc. But in cities, the needy poor people suffer a lot. They don’t have warm clothes, blankets or anything to put on. A lot of NGOs take care of those needy poor people. When the sun can’t be seen their havoc becomes much more. In this period of time, people can’t go outside early in the morning, get up late, or feel lazy. Except for those sceneries and havoc, winter is one of the most beautiful seasons among the six.

Foot overbridge

Powered by Froala Editor

Road accident is a common phenomenon in the Dhaka city. A large number of people die every year while they try to cross the road ignoring the traffic rules. They cross the road in front of moving vehicles and consequently fall victims of fatal accidents. The government and pedestrians both should think that lives are most valuable and nothing should be compared with it. To save lives we need to be social; we need to follow the traffic rules because life will not come for the second time.
The authorities should take the necessary steps to prevent these road accidents. Traffic police and the citizen should be more aware of the problem. Rules and regulations should be followed more strictly. When there is a VIP on the road, the traffic police are very conscious. However, they should be conscious all the time, and make sure no one can jaywalk through the busy roads.  People who break the rules should be punished, possibly via fines. The foot over-bridges should be cleared of all vendors. The authorities needs to improve the over-bridges to encourage people to use them. The first and most important step is to ensure people are using them. The media should highlight the importance of their use by pointing out the many accidents that are occurring due to jaywalking. The roads in our city should have signs for pedestrians not to jaywalk. Overall, this should be practised by all classes of people. Otherwise, the foot over-bridges will remain unused and accidents will continue. It is now time to make your family, friends, colleagues and neighbours conscious about the negative effects of jaywalking. Textbooks can be a useful tool in educating people about their use. Print and electronic media can play a vigorous role to educate the masses about the necessity of using footbridge, and avoid jaywalking.

Your favourite game

Powered by Froala Editor

Cricket is my favourite sport. Cricket is a sport that is widely played across the globe and it is played by everyone irrespective of their caste, creed or colour. It is also called the Gentleman’s Game as it was played by British officers back in the 16th century. 

I play cricket every day in the evening with my neighbourhood friends. Although we don’t obey the rules of cricket, it is a great source of physical exercise and entertainment. We play in a team of 5 versus 5 whereas in this game of cricket each team has 11 members. 

Before the game starts we toss a coin and whoever gets the head wins to choose between batting and bowling. This is an outdoor game, it is played with a bat, and ball along with the stumps. It is one of the most famous games of India. My favourite cricketer is Virat Kohli. 

In the game of cricket, each team competes with the other and the team with the highest scores wins the game. There’s an umpire who observes the game and ensures that rules are being followed. Players have to listen to the umpire and the judgement of the umpire is the final decision. 

Cricket is a popular game and it has got its diversity because it is played by almost everyone. People also make careers in the field of cricket as the cricketers earn huge amounts of money by just playing. That’s the reason why cricket is my favourite game. Everyone should play one or another sport to stay healthy and fit.

Food adulteration

Powered by Froala Editor

Food is one of the basic needs of human life. By taking foods we get heat and energy. It helps to survive on the earth. But our food is being adulterated. Food adulteration means the process of making food by mixing another substance or chemical which makes the food less pure and harmful for the human body. Chemicals are mixed with food to make the food attractive. Food loses its purity and standard in this way. By taking these foods, we become ill. It destroys the disease preventive power of the human body.

Every man is the victim of food adulteration. But children are the worst victims of it. Recently we find melamin a poisonous chemical in milk powder. The dishonest businessmen are solely responsible for adulteration. Recently the government set up mobile courts to punish them. The government should take more necessary steps to stop food adulteration.

Yellow Journalism

Powered by Froala Editor

Yellow journalism, or "yellow press", refers to an unethical, irresponsible brand of journalism given to hoaxes, altered photographs, screaming headlines, "scoops", frauds, and endless promotions of the newspapers themselves. This term was first used in the 1890's to describe the competition between two rival New York City newspapers, the World, and the Journal.
             In 1883, Joseph Pulitzer purchased the New York-based newspaper, the World. With its vivid, sensational reporting and excellent crusades against political corruption and social injustice, Pulitzer made the World, the largest newspaper circulation in the country. One of his most famous staff writers was Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Cockrane).
             Bly was best known for her "stunt" stories. An example of one of her "stunts" was when she pretended to be insane and committed herself to the New York Blackwell Island Asylum. When she was released after ten days, she wrote a story exposing the asylum's poor conditions. The story sparked reform from all around the country! Her most famous story, however, included her trip around the world. During that time period, Jules Verne wrote "Around the World in Eighty Days"; Bly was inspired to do it in less time. Her mission was accomplished in 72 days! She captured readers' attentions by writing daily about her adventures.In 1895, however, William Randolph Hearst, the son of a California mining tycoon, challenged Pulitzer's superiority, when he bought the Journal. Previous to his relocation to New York, Hearst owned the widely popular newspaper, Examiner, back in San Francisco. Hoping to duplicate the Examiner's success with the Journal, Hearst intended to surpass his competitors in sensationalism, crusades, and Sunday features. One of the Journal's more notable headlines, published in 1898, was when they provoked a quarrel between the U.S. and Spain.
