In the modern busy life, there are a large number of 

immigrants who
have been willing to have a comfortable life in other nations. Many
advocate that people should conform to the local customs and traditions
when they settle in a new country. From my respective, I strongly agree
with this idea because of some problems and benefits that people can
face with them.

There are two important reasons why newcomers should blend into the
local culture in the host country. Firstly, the refusal to adapt to host
environment would create a cultural barrier for immigrants. This leads
to social isolation, which has negative influences on people’s lives.
Secondly, it is logical that limited knowledge of local customs may result
in some illegal actions in the host country and make native
people unpleased. For instance, in Singapore, one of the cleanest
countries in Asia, local residents consider anyone dirty and ill-
mannered if they litter the street or spit gum in the public.

Newcomers can gain some benefits if they adopt the customs and
traditions of a new country. One benefit is that if immigrants behave in
accordance with the local norms, they will be accepted easily by local
inhabitants, and as a result, they can receive respects and affections as
well as some help from the local. For example, when the enterprises want
to expand their production in a new country, they must be aware of
business practices there, which provides them with useful information to
maximise profits. Another benefit is that newcomers might gain the
richness of knowledge by virtue of the local customs and traditions,
which enables them to actively participate in the activities of the
community. In many festivals, people are able to join freely and feel
harmonious like their own country.

In conclusion, I would argue that people who dwell in a new country


should follow the customs and traditions which local people observe.
