Multi-cultural societies, in which there is a mixture of different ethnic peoples, brings more benefits than drawbacks to a country. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is an undeniable fact that many people migrate to different countries for better life and hence most countries in the world have experienced multiculturalism. It is often argued that the countries consisting of people of different cultures and ethnicity get more advantages, and the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. However, I partially agree to the given notion.

Apparently, multiculturalism brings wide range of constructive benefits to a country. First and foremost is, people from different cultures and religions help the country in its economic progress and development, as they can share their different views and experiences of their cultures. For example, countries like USA have developed so much in a short amount of time majorly because of immigrants from different cultures and religions, also Canada is now opening its borders to people from other countries to fast track their growth and development. Secondly, people get to learn about the different traditions, festivals and food of other cultures, which will boost the feeling of brotherhood and create a bond between people.

On the other hand, people of different ethnicity in a society can have detrimental effects for myriad reasons. Chiefly, racism and discrimination go hand in hand with multiculturalism, majorly it goes unreported and unnoticed only sometimes people stand for it. For instance, in the USA many people are killed that to by policemen without any reason, only because they belong to a particular culture. Furthermore, sometimes there are situations where people of different cultures go against each other for reasons like jealousy or sometimes a situation is created purposely for political reasons, this leads to huge loss of life as well as property, as people damage things to show their power.

To recapitulate, multiculturalism brings more benefits than its drawbacks, but with the help of the government and the citizens these drawbacks can be waived off. The government should try not to be partial and have rules and benefits same for all the people.
