contoh teks pidato bahasa inggris tentang kemiskinan (poverty) 

Assalamualaikum Wr.Wb

Good morning Ladies and gentlemen. My name is Ertia Nursanti , I am a student and now studying at SMA Negeri 13 Surabaya. In this great occasion, I would like to talk about Poverty which is becoming one of the biggest world’s problem.

Have you ever thought about what it’s like to not have any food?  I am sure that most people do not have to worry about being hungry everyday. Just so you know, by the time you listen to my speech, there will have been millions people that are starving in the world. By the time you begin lunch, someone, somewhere in the world will have died because of not having food.

I am standing here because i want to  prevent that from happening. And I’m going to need your help.

Ladies and gentlemen, There are currently 925 million people live below the poverty line today.  Poverty.  Poverty is hunger. Poverty is lack of shelter. Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not being able to go to school, not knowing how to read, not being able to speak properly. Poverty is not having a job, fear for the future and living one day at a time. Poverty is powerlessness, poverty is lack of  freedom. Unfortunately, poverty is often an invisible problem.

Ladies and gentlemen, we must have known that poverty has become the most critical economic issue in our country. Those Luxury buildings in the big cities like Jakarta and surabaya cannot give us the real picture of Indonesia. We have to open our eyes that one part of the real indonesia is.....Our brothers and sisters are out there suffering food crisis.

As we see it, There are so many causes of today’s poverty.  Well, There is no need to talk about what causes poverty. But the more we understand the main causes of poverty, the more things we can do to fix it. so, what Actually causes poverty in Indonesia?

First, Lack of education.  Lack of education relies to not learning the neccessary skills to succeed in a carreer field. If you can’t read or do basic math, if you can’t show up for work and apply yourself, you will not have a job. Lack of education causes unemployment and unemployment causes poverty.  To solve this problem, the governments and individuals must be aware of it and treat it seriously.  Although this situation can’t be changed completely, at least  it can be improved.

Second, Rapid Population Growth. Our population is growing rapidly. yet our human resources are limited. The growth in population creates problems for us. For example : Today, our population is 10; tomorrow  it will be  100 and so on. We need more food, more houses, and more hospitals for them. But we have no money to spend on development projects. The ever-growing rate of population must be checked  to fix poverty in indonesia.

Third, Corruption and black-money. There are corruptions in every walk of life. There is inefficiency in offices. People have become selfish. They neglect the national interests. Black money causes the problem of rising prices. Some people may have all the privileges. But many others are suffering. Black money affects our economy. It causes poverty. Government needs  to take a serious action to the corruptor or poverty can never be solved.

Fourth, Gap between the rich and the poor. The widening gap between the rich and the poor is also responsible for Indonesia’s poverty. The rich are growing richer. The poor are growing poorer. This economic gap between the two must be reduced. Our social system should be changed as one of the solution for the poverty in indonesia.

Ladies and gentlemen, regarding what I Have said before, What do you think about it? should we do nothing ? No. We have to Stand together  and face the problem as soon as possible. Poverty is not a uncontrollably disease, it is not wild fire. It can be controlled as long as we have a faith that we can controll it. let's start thinking about what we can do to slowly but surely remove poverty. even if it's just a small action, Let's take a part to make our country a better place.

So, That’s all my speech thankyou for your attention and good morning.

Wassalamualaikum Wr.wb
