tadas!!!
i find this picture rather shocking. the incorporation of different culture in 1 photo, showing the face of a woman.
globalisation has caused us to lose most of our culture for example people become more modernize and lose their tradition and tradition is a form of culture. globalisation is define as growth to a global or worldwide scale.
culture is a very vague topic and refers to patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give such activities significance and importance. For example in Singapore, culture is also dying though traditions are dying.
when i visited earth 5 years back, traditions such as celebrations for the 7th lunar month was still present, but when i came back this year, all seems to be lost.
culture is also use as a form of tool for politics. many politics leader used their culture to justify their actions. for example dalai lama of tibet. he is a religious leader and hence used his religion to unite all his followers for the war between china. in united states, there is no culture. this is because globalisation.
