What is the role of
the government in promoting healthcare
|
|
|
I believe that the
government plays a major role in promoting healthcare.
|
|
|
The government
should educate the people about health and guide them about having healthy
lifestyles.
|
|
|
It must create more
programs and activities that would disseminate appropriate and accurate
information about health.
|
|
|
I also believe that
the government should improve the health sector to make it more accessible
for the people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What more do you
think could be done to promote healthy living in your country?
|
|
|
I think that the
government should have more initiatives and implement strict policies when it
comes to activities that affect people’s health.
|
|
|
For example, the
banning of smoking in public places would not just benefit the smokers, but
the none-smokers as well.
|
|
|
People must also be
educated about the advantages of having a healthy lifestyle. I also think
that putting up more establishments for people to engage in sports or
exercises must be encouraged.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How can individuals
take more responsibility for their own health?
|
|
|
Lifestyle plays a
major role in our health. We must care for our own health.
|
|
|
There are a lot of
things we can do to stay fit and healthy. For example, being conscious about
our food intake and exercising regularly must be practiced.
|
|
|
Discipline is very
important. We must be always try to avoid unhealthy practices and vices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why do you think
tourism is so developed now?
|
|
|
Well, because it is
a lot easier to travel nowadays… you can choose charter flights and find
various youth hostels all around the world, so you don’t need to spend much
money on the travelling. Moreover, you can book a trip via the Internet, so
you don't even have to leave home.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How people choose
their destination?
|
|
|
There are a lot of
ways. For instance, you can surf the internet for all the necessary
information… Or you can visit different travel agencies for more advice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What kind of transport
do you prefer on holidays? Why?
|
|
|
It depends… I
usually reach my holiday destination by plane because it is the fastest and
the least dangerous way to travel. However, flying can be a bit
uncomfortable... So I also travel by train from time to time… But I never
drive car on a vacation, because I do it every day when I work... I would
have a busman's holiday otherwise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do you prefer
travelling alone or in tour groups? Why?
|
|
|
I definitely prefer
travelling alone because I like to plan the trip by myself... When choosing a
guided tour, you should always conform to a set schedule… So if you are in
India and, say, you want to spend an extra hour at Taj Mahal, you simply
cannot do that with a group tour... I like independent travel. That way I get
to see and do exactly what I want and spend as much time as I want at various
stops.
