Dreams of university education

Talking about education in Vietnam, it is a very important thing for this country. Most of the parents are expect to send their children to study as high level as they can. Even they have to sell their land and move to work at big city, they are able to do it. However, I choose this news because it was really surprised me when I read it. But I think it is unusual for country like USA or UK. Because their government are very supported and provide scholarships for the students.

In this news article, it was talking about the countryside families that have to sell their buffaloes, pigs and rices, and temporarily leave their farm work to big cities like Ho Chi Minh City, The largest city in Vietnam, for their children brighter future. And one of the family that he talk about is Le Thi Teo. She came to this city for first time to bring her daughter to took the university entrance exam. She and her daughter have spent 600,00 dong already and they have only 500,000 left. Now, they have no idea where they can earn money for the next if the have to stay here for another days. Moreover, she hope that her child will pass this entrance exam although she have to stay here in big city and work harder. In order to have enough money for her to sit the exam for HCM City Economics University, her mother has had to save money for a month which has only 500,000 and she had to borrow 600,00 dong from relatives. However, she will still try her best for the children. They also think that only knowledge can help they change their life.

As for me, I think the government should support their citizen because it is very important for developing country like Vietnam. If they want to become a developed country they should concern more about education. In additional, new generations people are need knowledge to make the dream of developed country come true. They should give more opportunities to their people, for example build school in rural areas. For Thailand, I suggest that we should also give our countryside people more opportunities to study. Most of their school are very far away form their house. They have to travel for long distant to go school. Finally, their parents think that why don't their children stay home and do work. So, that is why most of the countryside children are lack of knowledge.
