Indonesia

There are thousands of islands in the east of Asia close to each other comprising an Islamic country called Indonesia. The capital of Indonesia is called Jakarta .The Indonesian economy depends on the rainforests. In this essay I will discuss the Indonesian forest problem and how it effects the environment.
First of all, Indonesia is endowed with some of the biggest forests in the world. Tens of millions of Indonesians depend directly on these forests for their livelihoods, whether gathering forest products for their daily needs or working in the wood-processing sectors of the economy. On the other hand, China’s economy depends on these forests to export their furniture to all over the word. In addition, the Chinese government warned their people to stop cutting the trees after the flooding happened in China. They let their people substitute to steal timber located an Indonesian islands. The weak economy of Indonesians let their people destroy 10 million hectors of forest for illegal business requirement. Moreover, there were some problem will happen because of cutting trees. There will be no air cycling of a high percentage of CO2 which will affects and increase the temperature in Indonesia and the surrounding countries. .
Finally, Indonesia and China government signed an agreement to stop cutting forest trees when they feel that it effects their environment and they agreed for the new solution for their economy which is related to these trees by planting a new type of trees which grows fast rather than cutting forest trees. Also they agreed to fine all illegal loggers.

All in all, we have to respect our nature by planting trees. And we have to say thanks for our country when they celebrate the week of the tree.

Lebanon

Lebanon is the smallest country in the Arabic region and it is located in the heart of the Middle East. It is surrounded by Jordan, Syria, Cyprus, Turkey and Palestine. Lebanon is called in the bible “The land of milk and honey”. The capital Beirut is called “Paris of the East”. The Lebanese people came from amazing mixture of backgrounds and religious groups.
The mixture of religious and backgrounds in Lebanon was the major cause of tensions like what happened between Muslims and Christians in 1943 to 1948. In 1943 after independence, Christians Lebanese held the balance of power and Muslims had little say in running of their country. This was the main reasons that made tensions between Lebanese.
Other reason was 100000 of Palestinians (Sunni) Muslims who get out of Palestine and poured into Lebanon, but the tensions reached to the peak in 1975 when a radical Christian group “The Phalange” attacked and killed Palestinians in downtown Beirut while they are in a bus. Then killing became out of control.
As a result of civil war the army of Syria entered Lebanon divided into two groups. Muslims retreated into western half of the city while Christians occupied east Beirut. In 1982 the Israeli army invaded Beirut with the aim of removing the Palestinian Liberation Organization. The peace deal reached Lebanon in 1989. In that civil war, between 150 thousand to 200 thousand people died and 300000 were wounded. A quarter of population left the country and for many years Beirut’s economy was paralyzed. The disadvantages of war, the social and economic recovery in Beirut and there were four signs for that recovery. The first sign was the businessman in the Gulf States started pouring money into Lebanon in a way of investments. After that the governments invite the foreigners to rebuild Beirut. Then, all groups started living in Beirut without any problems. The last sign, many investments doing by riches countries have been done in Beirut.Nowadays, the problems returned back to Lebanon because of the major reason which is mentions before and that’s why Lebanon till now without a president.
