What Is Globalization?

When talking about globalization, the first word comes to my mind is “Sharing”. Sharing what one has and also getting things from others. Globalization is the interaction between people, companies, and governments of different nations. It is a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. It affects the environment, culture exchanges, on political systems, on economic growth and on human physical well-being in societies around the world.

In the past 10 years, internet has been growing in a very high speed. It helps globalization a lot. People can reach someone who is on the other side of the world easily. People learn, share information, do business, and do whatever they want on the internet. Internet keeps going to be the biggest issue of globalization in the future.
