The capital city is the center of a country’s civilization that all activities including politics, economy, media, education, fashion, entertainment and science are specialized and influential to the nation. In the present time, many qualifications are required within capital cities to handle the expansion of civilization and many other activities that have been done in the city. As Thailand seems to be the center of the economy inside Southeast Asia region, the capital city, Bangkok, should be developed further to be capable of coping with the rapid progress of the society concerning population and service.
The first important reason Bangkok should develop further is to handle the increasing number of population in the capital city. Bangkok is facing the enormous influx of people including provincial labors, immigrants, and foreigners. For this reason, the infrastructure of the town should be developed to be able to accommodate all the citizens efficiently. For example, the government should renovate a small building into a high-rise building and a house into a high rise condominium. With these actions, Bangkok will be able to handle the larger amount of people that are going to migrate to the city shortly.
Another point to consider to develop Bangkok further is for a useful public service. There are many essential public services located in Bangkok that should be developed. In detail, Bangkok has the seat of government, parliament, justice court, the headquarters of the national bank, a building representing the religion and many other underlying governmental organizations. Besides, many administrative activities are ongoing in this city. Therefore, this institution should be developed in advance to provide a better service to facilitate both national citizens and esteemed guests who visit Thailand.
On a contrary, many people believe that Bangkok should not be developed further because of a major reason. The one important factor is that Bangkok consists of many old infrastructures that represent the beauty of Thai culture such as temple, the old house of commons and old buildings that have been preserved at present. Therefore, the overview of the city should be preserved as a cultural heritage. It seems to have some merits in this claim. However, the actual importance of the capital city is the place where the leaders of the country live and where the laws that countries have are originated for the most part. Therefore, it should be sacrificed for a political and economic purposes instead of cultural preservation.
In summary, it can be concluded that Bangkok should be developed further concerning population and service. Some people and essential governmental services are going to increase as the country move forward to a better future. Bangkok is the hub of Southeast Asi
