The graph and Table about Fishermen and Exports



The graph and table show the number of fishermen for different regions in 1970, 1980 and 2000. In addition the table shows the exports of fish in 2000.

First of all I will illustrate in my writing the graph which represents the fishermen by region in millions. The graph shows the Asian continent come the first between continents in 2000; it contains almost 27M fishermen whereas Africa comes at the bottom; it represents about 3M fishermen. In fact Africa starts strongly in the year 1970 and exceeded Asia but as you see Africa dropped from 9M to 3M between 1970 to 2000. Another important point is South America remained the same between 1970 and 2000. Also comparing South and North America the number of fishermen in the North grew from 1970 to 2000 and it passed the South American figure. In the table as you see Thailand comes at the top of the table whereas South-Korea came at the bottom. Also Norway has the largest exports in Europe.

In conclusion, the fishing industry in Asia grew fast from 1970 to 2000 whereas there was slow growth in some continents and it decreased or stayed the same in the other continents. Thailand has an important figure of exports whereas South-Korea comes bottom

The challenges you face in other countries

People in the past or today travel to overseas countries for different reasons such as study, work, treatment and so on. Of course the traveler faces big challenges during  his stay in an overseas country , for instance culture , law , food .

First of all everyone knows that there are too many challenges for those who are searching for traveling overseas to other countries. These challenges might be difficult because they involve a different culture. For example the person who looks to complete his/her study in overseas countries or the worker who looks for a better job, the patient who seeks for treatment and off course other causes . So how do we overcome these difficulties? Today life has become easier than before to know about  the other countries  ; for example you can use your laptop or computer and open the internet  in Google  then put the country name you will  find all information  about this country .

From this point you can avoid too many things. Maybe the greatest problem is law; for example when I was in the United States I took my friend's car without checking the car insurance. That was a great big problem for me until my friends came with the insurance paper; otherwise I could be in prison so this is one of the things the traveler must take care about in the United States and even in other countries .Another thing may face you in overseas countries is the home food and you can overcome this problem by living in a city or downtown area where there are suitable restaurants.

In conclusion, the traveler can face difficulties in overseas countries such as culture; to avoid these things the traveler needs to know more information about the new country.
