Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb.

First of all, let us praise to the Almighty Allah SWT, because of His Blessing we are able to attend this English speech contest. Secondly, may peace be upon the prophet Muhammad Saw who has guided us from the darkness into the brightness. I would also like to say many thanks to the juries and MC who have given me opportunity to deliver an English speech in front of you all. Ladies and Gentlemen It is a great honor for me to stand here and give a brief speech entitled smart generation in facing globalisation era. As we all know, nowadays our world is in globalization era. We often hear it. Globalization is the process of transformation of local phenomena into global phenomena. This process is a combination of economic, technological, sociocultural and political forces. In other words, every country in this world can influence other countries. This term refers to the fact that people are considered to live in this planet without borders, without limitation. People are able to access any kinds of information easily. There is no difficulty to communicate. There is no barrier to interact with other people from all over the world. Brothers and sisters Globalization has various aspects which affect the world, such as: in industry, finance, economy, politics, technology, and socio-culture. If our country wants to survive in this globalization era, we must be smart people. We should take all of the positive effects of globalization and we should not take the negative effects. For example: we need to adopt and learn high technology from developed country in order to develop our country. On the contrary, we must not imitate bad attitudes or behaviors from other countries like free sex and drugs abuse. Brothers and sisters It is a fact that there are many challenges in globalization era. It cannot be denied that globalization is related with competition and the ability to survive. The question is: what should we do in order to face the globalization era? The first one is, build up and strengthen good characters based on the religion. If we are Moslem, the guide of our lives is Islam. Second, we must master technology in order to develop our country, and the last, always be ready to face any kinds of change and competition by preparing and upgrading our skills. Ladies and Gentlemen Brothers and Sisters Thats all my speech. Hopefully, it will be useful for all of us. Thank you very much for your attention. Wassalamualaikum Wr. Wb.
