Importance of Sanitation

In my previous posts,  I have lightly tackled the importance of sanitation. Now, I will be talking about it more thoroughly, in hopes that everyone will truly understand how vital sanitation is.

 IMPORTANCE OF SANITATION:

 MAINTAINS HEALTH
By ensuring that we live in a clean environment, we can prevent ourselves from being affected by diseases that are caused by lack of sanitation. For example, malaria, ringworm, typhoid and cholera.

 CLEAN FACILITIES
If the government makes sure our public toilets, bus stops and other facilities are always sanitised, the citizens will feel grateful as they won't have to worry about using contaminated facilities which may pose a danger to their health. 

 GOOD IMAGE
If tourists were to visit a country with poor sanitation, they would not be impressed. By ensuring that everything is squeaky clean, our country will be granted a good image to everyone around the world.

 In conclusion, sanitation is very important and we should never take it lightly.

It's really something we should be proud of, and something we should definitely be apart of. I will be ending my letter here with one last word of ...

As we all know, our houses are where we are the most. With that being said, we should always make sure that our houses are clean and sanitised. Here are a few places in our house that we should definitely go the extra mile to ensure its sanitation: KITCHEN Almost everything in the kitchen will end up in our stomach, so we should make sure that our kitchen is properly sanitised and that there are no food left out in the open. BEDROOM Almost half our lives are spent in our bedroom, where we sleep, play and do our work. Therefore, we should make sure that we clean our bedroom at least once a week, and ensure there's no dust or bugs that may cause us any harm. LIVING ROOM Although not as important as the ones mentioned above, we should also take care of the sanitation of our living room as it the place where guests frequently are. It is important that we make sure our guests feel welcomed, and that they leave healthy .
