This picture shows a scene of a flood. The population of this country consist mostly of Malays and Indians.The flood has cause movements to be disrupted and transportation to be cut of as movements around the area is difficult due to the floods. If this situation does not improve, many people will suffer and diseases like Dengue and Malaria will start to spread as this floods are a good breeding ground for the mosquitoes.Looking at the environment of this country, we can conclude that it is a third world country as transportation are not very advance and transporting of goods are manually done. In a third world country,the sewage system is very poor due to the lack of talents and financial assistance, therefore once there is a excessive amount of rainfall, floods occur.As the infrastructure is not damage at all, we can see that the floods are not caused by problems like bursting of river banks.

Due to the presence of water, the speed of the transportation was affected badly . From my conclusion,the man riding the trishaw should be quite happy as he has customers.The reason why he has customer is that many people are not used to move in water therefore are willing to pay for the trishaw to transport them from place to place.I think that most of the people there did not receive any education when they were young, thus, they can only take on the job of rickshaw pullers. This tells me that education is very important for our future.Therefore to be able to shine in our future, we have to excel in our education as educations plays a big part in our jobs.

I realised that the water is very dirty.The people living there may consume the water as they are unaware of the consequences of drinking polluted water. As there is no clean supply of water for consumption, people will die due to dehydration.People are wondering where they are suppose to go as their houses are covered with water too. Their faces all have the same expression in them-sadness. I feel sympathetic for them as their lives are already very poor and now they still have to fight with the floods which has disrupted their lives even more badly.I am suggesting that if the country is always affected by floods, the government has to take some actions.

The people will suffer every time a flood occurs if the government still does not do anything.If the government is unable to pay for the sewage systems, they can ask for helps from the United Nations. Charitable groups will be please to help them too. If this floods stay for a long time and always happen, the economy of the country will be very poor. I also think that rich countries should do their part by donating money and necessities to this country and also help me improve the standard of living.

As a Singaporean myself, I feel extremely grateful as we does not have to experience this type of natural disasters. To conclude, I feel that people should precious their lives as many people in other countries are fighting for their life.All in all, the world should help each other when one is in need.
