Fostering Youth to Become Champions of Tomorrow

Name of Essay: Fostering Nepali Youth to become Champions of Reform:  Designing a Better Future for the Country Name of Author: Sushil Kumar Mahato. Department of Pharmacy, Bahauddin Zakaria university, Multan, Pakistan. Age: 21 years Contact : [email  protected] com Mobile number: 00923326019248 I have a special dream for the country. I have a dream of New Nepal in which every citizen owes his own home as I do . Every citizen has access to basic needs of food and clothing.Every citizen is provided with opportunity of job which fits him well as per his qualification. Every citizen has access to facilities of healthcare and education for his family as I do . Every citizen has equal access for various opportunities without any discrimination based on sex, race ,religion ,regional variations ,political influences and economic status of an individual. These needs and aspirations of Nepalese citizens must be addressed by the constitution of New Nepal. I have dreamt of it today and to fulfill the dream of New Nepal is the aim of my life. Dare to dream Youth.How can Nepal line up with the developing countries when half of its population comprising of youth is facing hard times struggling to meet the needs of his family in the gulf countries? How can Nepalese society lead to peace and prosperous if majority of young children are deprived of proper education due to poverty, illiteracy and lack of awareness? How can Nepalese society march ahead in path of progress when large population of female youth is living their life in a strong feeling of hatred, insecurity and fear in their own home? The 21st century is the generation which says no discrimination based on gender .The world has progressed a lot in terms of gender development and emphasize on gender equity. Female are as competent as males in every sector of life but still a great number of Nepalese young women is facing gender discrimination in their own homes. As majority of rural society is facing gender cri ses, the agony of most rural young girls can be heard in such voices, Am I born as a Jewel and pearl, Then, why do my parents hide me from the world, My brother goes to school and is well fed, I word hard even have to struggle for food,But the fate of jewels is to give shine to all, Then why do my parents make me work in the fields all the day long, With mud and in the hot sun, Why cannot they distinguish my sweats and tears, Do I have to live all my life with fear? It’s my great aspiration to fight against all these circumstances and lead a country toward prosperity but as 21 years old I know my limits. However, knowing my limits doesn’t mean that I can’t try to dream about changing the situation . We are the present Youth of our nation and we have the power to change the country more than any government.If this happen the change along with the impact would be massive. Earlier the question used to be, ’what can the country do for youth? But at present ag e the question should be turned into ‘what youth can do for the country? ’ Presently Nepal is undergoing through internal conflicts, which has been emerged from the unrealized rights, demands and aspirations of citizens. Constitutions drafting has been halted and the constituent assembly had gone unnatural death as it was dissolved without drafting constitution on 28th May 2012.About 25 percent of the members of constituent assembly were among youth categories but they could not play better roles in constitutional drafting process They were just used as the vote bank by the political parties. Imbalances of power, sense of ideological supremacies, identity politics and absence of strong law enforcing mechanism has led the nation to internal conflict . In these situation the influences of foreign interference has been increased in last few months especially from neighbours of Nepal i. e India and China.Nepalese youth are responsible for all these critical situations direc tly or indirectly as they are largely involved in politics. Youth should be able to convince their leaders and entire Nepalese community for the right options and suitable role models for the issues such as state reconstructing which is hanging out . One of the most easiest and most powerful ways for youth population to participate in important decisions and issues is by exercising their voting rights . Youth must promise today that they will not select any corrupt, killer, dishonest leader to represent the people for drafting the new constitution.An important role of every young generation is to vote for those who think is right to lead the country toward a better future. The youth have the benefit of being able to learn from past mistakes, therefore, the political choices – and voices – of every generation should become smarter, sharper and more critical. In theory this will lead us towards a more equal and democratic world. The problem facing by youth is the lack of technical education. If youth is trained and educated in the right manner, they will play a very constructive role in nation building.They will help the government and state and private institutions in implementation of national policies. Whereas , if Youth is not in the right direction and is unconcerned about the future of the Nation, it will just be a burden for the nation as a whole and will play no productive role. Properly educated and given right opportunities they can play a significant part in lifting themselves, their families and communities out of poverty. Currently Nepalese Youth are facing several problems. The most critical problem being faced by our youth is unemployment.Unemployment is a multi-dimensional and complex issue which starts a vicious circle of associated problems like involvement of youth in politics, bank and household burglaries, social insecurity, lawlessness, use of drugs etc. Youth are the building blocks of nation. Employment sector should be crea ted as per need of youth. The situation of Nepal is quite different now. In history of the country the good news is that a few year ago new ministry called Youth and sports ministry has been formed to address the problems facing by the youths.A few years ago the then government has launched self employment fund for the needy people and various skill training were given to youth to generate their own jobs, but it could not be implemented effectively and little or no progress was achieved. The youth community should unite together for the improvement of employment sector and also they should press the government to make strategies to develop industrial sector. Also Proper agreement should be made between the government and foreign employment providers to reduce and end the violence Nepalese youth are facing aboard in employment.A number of civil service reform commissions have been constituted and recommendations made for strengthening Nepal Civil Service. Despite five decades of expe riments with democratic practices, the behavior and mind-set of politicians and bureaucrats have not changed significantly to introduce civil service reforms on a result-oriented basis. Youth have incredible energies, talents and unquestionable love for their country. The passion of our youth in the time of disaster like flood, earthquake is the best examples of unity and patriotism for the country .A separate civil service for youth should be established and youth should be emphasized to involve in it. Youth can bring major changes in the efficiency of the services provided to the public in quick and reliable way. Another serious drawback which is hindering development process is the Corruption. Youth should be actively participation in the developmental activities to correct the irresponsible behavior shown by the authority. Questions such as,’ How much money is being spent and how is it being spent? Is that road being built correctly and transparently?Is that community of Muslims being treated fairly? How can the Government of Nepal in Kathmandu help the rural community? ’ can be aroused which would largely control the corruption at local level. Youth today have the perfect opportunity to emulate his approach, especially as the country now moves towards state restructuring. There can be more opportunities to engage in local development as NGO workers and in local Political body in DDCs and VDCs, which although have atrophied over the past two decades are the country’s great hope.That’s where Nepali youth can play a great role in decision making and seek accountability. Poverty is another major problem of our nation. Today youth must promise today that they will not let any poor people to die from hunger and will try to find the needy people and help them as per one’s capability. The youth hopes for a world free of poverty, unemployment, inequality and exploitation of man by man, a world free of discrimination on the ground s of race, language and gender, a world full of creative challenges and opportunities to conquer them.Youth must promise today that they will try to help each other and will clean their mind from any kind of prejudice, bias, hatred and will treat all others as equal to them. Further they must make a commitment today that they will help the society for the promotion of education, honest and conscious. Let’s convert these hopes into reality. Our youth in the grim situation finds no other consolation resort to the use of drugs. Growing use of narcotics is becoming a major problem of our youth. Such practices should be strongly discouraged through youth campaigns.Youth are the hopes of the country for tomorrow. To contribute in nation building they should study hard now so that they could become a skilled person in the future and can participate in the developmental works of the country. The youth can learn a lot from past mistakes and with time will become more intelligent and m ore prepared. Last but not least, the role of media in upbringing our youth has been minimal throughout the history of Nepal. Most of the youth find our Tvprogrammes non-entertaining and unattractive.The influences of western fashion and lifestyles have influenced the Nepalese society to a large extent. As a consequence of cultural invasion, our youth’s role in promoting our country has been dismal. Youth of Nepal should strongly discourage such practices through youth compaings and media can play an important role in this regard. The youth of today can do a marvellous job for the nation. With all the modern means of this computer age, where everything seems to be possible, why can’t the youth override the things done by the people in the past?We always consider the heroes of the past to be the evergreen characters. But today the youth with the proper use of the modern facilities should be evergreen characters for the times to come. Nepal can become a developed nation only if youth contribute to the best of his or her capacity and ability. Youth is wholly experimental and with the full utilization of their talents they will certainly be the champions of reforms designing a better future of tomorrow and Nepal will become a complete nation. Today there is a hope, we have opportunity. et’s give clear message to youth community, ‘Let’s involve together. We are strong’. Let me end my writing here with an inspiring quote said by the great leader Mahatma Gandhi,’ You may never know what results come of your action, but if u do nothing there will be no results’ . I am confident, with the active participation of youth the country will emerge stronger, more stable and ultimately more prosperous in the history of Nepal and the Youth of Nepal will be the example for the developing world.

The Effects Of Alcoholism On The Alcoholic - 874 Words

The best way to fix alcoholism is to treat it as a disease that needs to be cured. Alcoholism is definitely a problem and causes harm to both the alcoholic and the people around them, but it does so in a much different way than a disease such as cancer. Instead, alcoholism is a disease of both physical and mental dependence. Most diseases are treated by surgery or medication, but the only way to fix the problem of alcohol abuse is by changing the mindset of the alcoholic. This is why Hazelden Betty Ford uses mental adjustment techniques to treat alcoholics at its centers. Their philosophy relies on the fact that the alcoholic is mentally dependent on alcohol and the only way to fix their disease is to change how the alcoholic thinks about alcohol. Drinking alcohol is also a choice, unlike a disease such as cancer which no one would choose to have. Therefore, Hazelden has to focus on showing the alcoholic how to make the choice of abstaining from alcohol instead of removing the desire like a tumor in a cancer patient. Hazelden’s understanding that alcoholism is a mental disease and their philosophy of mentally treating alcoholics at their treatment centers is why they are so successful, but the fact that alcoholism can reappear at any time makes alcoholism incredibly difficult to completely cure. Nowhere in the twelve step process is there a mention of surgery or a series of drugs to take in order to overcome alcoholism. Instead, the process outlines steps such as,Show MoreRelatedThe Effects Of Alcoholism On The Alcoholic And Their Families1382 Words   |  6 PagesThe Effects of Alcoholism Alcohol indefinitely changed my life.

The Effects of False Advertising - 1798 Words

Final Draft: The Effects of False Advertising Since the evolution of communication, media has been used to transmit informations to those willing to absorb it. Now, using powerful technologies such as television or the internet, information has been made accessible to people in every aspect of our daily lives, trying now to influence our choices more than ever before through advertisement. However, for the most, the goal behind advertising is personal profit. Therefore, the things we are exposed to in advertisements are not always true; they often tend to make people try being someone elses idea of perfection while ignoring their own goals, and then conduct the consumers to deception.

The same study also showed that their spread is increasing because weight loss products are very loosely regulated and have a history of little efficacy and dangerous side effects (â€Å"The Effects of Advertising and Deceptive Advertising on Consumption†).

Essay about malcolm x - 1836 Words

Malcolm X Malcolm was born on May 19, 1925 in an Omaha hospital. He was born into a world of hatred and violence toward his kind, and from he was little, he knew that he would die in a similar manner. Malcolm’s father who was a large black man was a Baptist Minister. Though he and his family on many occasions were threatened by members of the Black legion and the Ku Klux Klan, that if he did not stop starting preaching of Marcus Garvey, that they would kill him. Malcolm’s father was not a scared man, and he continued to preach. Ever since Malcolm was little, he never had much respect for the Christian religion or the followers of it. One of Malcolm’s earliest memories was an afternoon in 1921 when he had seen his mother and father†¦show more content†¦He became one of the best students in the school. Despite Malcolm’s academic success, his most memorable occurrence at the school was when his English teacher asked him what he planned to be when he grew up. Malcolm who had really not given the topic much thought blurted out that he might become a lawyer. What had hurt Malcolm the most was that this was coming from the same teacher who encouraged students who hadn’t half as good grades as Malcolm to peruse their goals. This little lecture had discouraged Malcolm, and he began to withdraw himself from school. And by some miracle his sister Ella was able to have him transferred to Massachusetts as soon as he had finished the 8th grade. He meets a man named Shorty, and he â€Å"schools him on how to be hip.† It turned out that Shorty was also from Lansing. The two hit it off, and Shorty never knew how young Malcolm was. At first the friends just have fun together going Lidney hopping, and conking their hair to look white, and â€Å"Red† being hooked up by Shorty’s many connections.

My thesis statement summarized as the following â€Å"Facebook puts other companies underneath its wings by imposing Ads network strategies, marketing strategies and as well as social media strategies†. The Five Porters Forces Risk of entry by potential competitors: The barriers of entry to other competitors of Facebook is very high, since Facebook has the criteria of the users satisfaction which makes the users more loyal to Facebook, for instance, I would say Google is a potential competitor to Facebook, hence, the risk of entry is low. Intensity of rivalry among established firms: Twitter is one of the most competitors to Facebook, since Twitter has Five Hundred million users on its social network as well as has the tenth rank on Alexa traffic rank; furthermore, Facebook and Twitter are fighting to make the users more attractive by coming up with new ideas in the network social networks to make it more easier to the end users. Bargaining power of buyers: Since Facebook offers social networking services to the end users, Facebook does know the importance of the user’s power to make them successful by offering unique and flexible tools for the social networking, moreover, Facebook team should take into considerations the feedbacks and reviews of the end users. Bargaining power of suppliers: In Facebook case, there’s no specific supplier because they are offering online services, they could be the suppliers themselves, and we would consider the government is a supplier for Facebook; since the government monitor and control the social networks. Threat of substitutes: The threat of substitutes for Facebook is represented by any social networking website like Twitter or Myspace which they are really rivals, so Facebook team should update the website from time to time to make the users satisfied and to face the user’s daily demands on the social network. Facebook SWOT Analysis Strengths: Facebook has the second rank at Alexa as a global rank and second rank in the US (Facebook Rank,ND). In addition, Facebook now has over than one billion active users; Facebook has announced its revenue by gaining more than $150 million from the mobile advertising (Turcan, 2012). Furthermore, Facebook supports more than 70 languages for the users across the world which makes Facebook attractive for many users their mother language is not English. Now Facebook has a popular brand name and it has been used as a reference in many movies or even in the business cards (FACEBOOK SWOT, ND). Weaknesses: There are many faked accounts and duplicated accounts that cannot be identified easily. Also, people say Facebook is secretly gathering information about them which may leave an impression to remove their accounts. Moreover, Facebook posted a loss in last two quarters which will impact its stocks (Turcan, 2012). Opportunities: Researchers can take advantage of using Facebook by gathering data for surveys purposes. Moreover, Ads prices are still going up as Facebook recently announced which will have the investors buy new stocks. Also, Facebook can be used as a market place; people can sell and buy items through Facebook (FACEBOOK SWOT, ND). Threats: China government doesn’t allow Facebook to operate out there in China; since china has a huge population. In addition, it is probably that users may switch to any other services like Google+ (Facebook Investment, 2012). Also, Twitter has a strong competition with Facebook in the market place and they are making unique features Faecbook doesn’t. Furthermore, there are many viruses have attacked Facbook as we have heard recently from news, and it might be a threat of ongoing hacking in the future. Facebook Marketing Strategy Marketing strategy is one of the interesting strategies that Facebook has; Facebook demonstrates its strategy by defining the target audience which means Facebook has grouping packages for all accounts by age, gender, profession and location which help the other companies to post their Ads on Facebook for specific class of people and as well as specific region, furthermore, Facebook helps other corporations to increase the traffic on their websites by creating an official page contains their official website link and contact information which truly helps the corporations to share their information, run certain events, post any kind of advertisements and get more likes. I would say the more likes you get, the more success you are. In another hand, the non-profit organizations can take the advantage by creating a page on Facebook to get donations and find volunteers across all the world, moreover, Facebook provides the page owners with all kind of statistics tools and reports, those kind of reports are weekly and daily updated and included with the post quality, how many likes, page views and photo views. Conclusion In my point of view, the marketing strategy makes Facebook an attractive destination for all kind of businesses to post Ads, upload photos, create events and communicate with people which leads rapidly to grow revenue of Facebook. In my opinion, Facebook developers should work on the privacy settings to make sure that the users will stick with them for a long period of time. Moreover, the developer team should do something to prevent the existence of the duplicated accounts and the faked accounts by monitoring the IP addresses of the user’s computer. Finally, Facebook is still in the fore beating up Twitter, My Space and other social networking websites, as I mentioned before, Facebook has been a leader for the other online social networking services, I would say Facebook made a difference in the information revolution these days and created a competitive environment in the market place. How to cite Facebook Puts Other Companies Underneath Its Wings, Papers Facebook Puts Other Companies Underneath Its Wings Free Essays Introduction Facebook is considered these days as a leader for the social networking websites, Facebook is such a great success story which officially came out in 2004 created by Mark Zuckerberg and his classmates at Harvard University. On October 28, 2003, when they were in the second year, Zuckerberg and his team started the idea by launching a website called â€Å"Facemashâ€Å", after that, for many reasons the website was shut down by the school. On February 4, 2004, Zuckerberg started again with his team a new website called â€Å"Thefacebook†, they worked hard to develop the website and they divided the tasks professionally; Eduardo Saverin is responsible for the business side, Dustin Moskovitz for programming issues, Andrew McCollum for the graphic design, and Chris Hughes. We will write a custom essay sample on Facebook Puts Other Companies Underneath Its Wings or any similar topic only for you Order Now Facebook has been written and developed using C++ and PHP language. They worked together such as a great talent team until the website was expanded to many schools (Who Invented Facebook, ND).

Unit Learning for Information and Communication - myassignmenthelp

Question: Discuss about theUnit Learning for Information and Communication. Answer: This portfolio is designed to demonstrate my understanding about Unit learning. During the last semester of bachelor degree, I came to know that there is requirement of assistant in computer science department. Without any second thought I applied for the same. It was my good luck that due to my strong interpersonal communication skills, I was selected for the job. I was an active listener during my lectures and I always asked the doubts without any hesitation. It was the time of final year extracurricular activities and I had participated in debate competition, the topic for debate was ICT in education sector. I was in opposition of this topic. For the preparation of debate I studied about ICT (Information and communication technology in education sector). I learned about the pros and cons of ICT from various online documents, blogs and journals. It was a great activity for me and I was enjoying my efforts. I adopted instructions provided by my mentors to facilitate the preparation of debate. My goal was to win this competition. I was confident that during my debate I will demonstrate my all knowledge using a variety of expressions and gestures which will impose more confidence in my personality. During my debate I had planned to deliver extra information about ICT to my all team members and tried to convince them. On the day of competition, I was very concentrated on expanding the abilities of ICT. Throughout my competition my biggest asset was my strong communication skills. I prepared notes for discussion from sources. During my debate I had to represent the ethical behaviors and privacy issues in working environment I collected all the information from websites with some real examples. I represented my view as, In any organization the implementation of ICT is not always secure, due to the interconnection of systems through Internet, and there are always chances of security breaches. We can see the situation like data was intentionally deleted or corrupted by internal users and password hacking from internal or external users. As a student while we use the computer systems of our college, the students do unauthorized activities many times intentionally. They changed the system password and settings. Not all of them were same as they belong to different culture and atmosphere. To maintain the discipline in lab and being as assistant I suggested to my mentor that proper secured access mechanisms must be implemented so that it can be controlled in future. I provided credentials for system settings. To improve the performance of lab, the network of lab was shifted from simple to client server architecture. Server was established and controlled by the managing director of CS/IT HOD. Feedback As per my experience, the feedback of ICT technologies is: Cons: Not all of the faculties are up to the mark to use these type of latest technologies. At common working place it is not safe to save the important files. Pros: It can be used in education field for resource sharing. The task can be automated by using software like ERP, Excel and cloud services of Google. The delivery of lectures may be more efficient. Recommendation As per my opinion, the account must be different for students, faculties and administration. Every student must have credentials and it must be updated on regular time elapsed. Digital media devices are preferred for expressing the views which will affect the personality and knowledge of staff. It could be impressive for the students to prepare any project or presentation in a group
