Nowadays 'Globalization' has become a buzzword (RbwcÖq). That means, it is a process of expanding trade and commerce all over the world by creating a borderless market. With the progress of sophisticated communications-media, rapid technological development and rapid transportation facilities, the world has become closer.
At present if anything happens anywhere in the world, people throughout the world can know instantly. Now the intermingling of culture, international trade system has played important roles to turn the world into a village.
Present age is an age of economic diplomacy. For the sake of trade, the countries of the world have come under the same platform. People are sharing their feelings with the help of cell phone, telephone, optical fiber, submarine cable, radio, television, VOIP etc. Because of globalization, cultures are penetrating into one another. Many economic dogmas like capitalism, socialism and Islamism are being mixed. So many economic, martial and political forums have emerged like SAARC, ASEAN, OPEC, EU, OIC etc.
Globalization is a blessing mostly for the advanced countries as undeveloped countries can no more compete with them successfully. The USA, the UK, Japan, Sweden, China etc are now controlling the free market of the world.
Language has also an important role to play in the acceleration of globalization. The countries lacking command of English are lagging behind. We have to gather strength to keep pace with the progressive forces of the world.
We must be alert about the dark sides of globalization as terrorists and mafia gangs are not lagging behind to spread the poisonous activities across the globe. Alongside we should look at the advanced countries so that we can get strategy from them to bring a revolution in our information technology.
