ESSAY 27

Some people say we do not need printed paper newspapers anymore. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Today, people have more sources of information compared to the situation 20 years ago. With the advance of digital technology, there are many channels of media to choose from including newspapers publishers, which now convert to digital content by means of website or apps that can be accessed widely. This is a form of adaptive transformation, which is beneficial both for the publishers and for the users.

Traditional information providers such as radio broadcaster, television channels, and newspaper publishers are trying to adapt with the latest technology advancement. Current information channels are no longer restricted to use traditional media such as printed papers. For the newspaper companies, this is a good news from the perspective of resources and cost efficiency, mainly from eliminating the cost of paper, which is expensive and hard to get. By removing the cost of printing, now they can use this fund for marketing so they can reach new subscribers and maintain their old subscribers who have moved to the digital version.

In the past, people read their newspapers before they went to their workplace. Recently, the trend to get information is done while people are commuting to their workplace, for example, on a train full of passengers through the use of mobile phone, which does not need lots of space. These target consumers will subscribe to their preferred media with an affordable price and they will still get high quality content from the same journalist. From the perspective of media users, this is a long-awaited progress, due to the clear difficulty of carrying and reading a newspaper on a crowded train; this is a good example why the readers have left behind old printed-paper version.

In conclusion, I agree that this transformation is advantageous for everyone and therefore is unavoidable. The practical benefit to both the publishers and the readers are clear signs that this change will continue in the future.

Modern time has seen rapid advancement in people’s lifestyles; a situation which is suspected to happen due to progress in technology and globalisation. This has also affected people’s preferences for their career. Instead of being fixated on the traditional career path, modern people tend to explore many new fields and areas where they can follow their dream even to the point which was unimaginable three decades ago. This essay would further analyse the correlation between gender and occupational preference and its future prediction. Women have been considered as inferior to men in terms of physicality and this view may very well have some truth in it.
