What it means by globalisation? It is likely to mean the world is being globalized. In other words, the entire world is becoming a global village and more interconnected one another. The wonder of World Wide Web is making this happen. The boarder of countries are disappearing and you may have more knowledge on almost everything of other countries than that of the country where you are living in at the monent. Then does this matter with you? Yes it does in many aspects of your life as the fact that you are able to extend your knowledge and experience more if you understand the true meaning of globalization. Nowadays, people say 'YOLO', meaning that You Only Live Once, which would have negative and positive connotation in it at the same time depending on how you view and interpret it.
If your rights proceed your obligations, you will have 'I don't care' attitude so that you don't mind other people but you yourself only. If being selfish is to be a way of life in this world where in fact we all coexist and are affected by one another in a way whether to like it or not, the way of our life would get into a vicious circle in which no one cares about anyone. In other words, you would be the one who could end up being victimized one day. This is a kind of 'Lose Lose' game after all and it would turn out to be against the globalization owing to the fact that the true spirit of the globalzation is based on 'Togetherism'. Embodying globalization refers to encompassing each other's culture and perceiving differences as it is. In that sense, diversity could be well understood and accepted as it is and the fundamental issue of human right is to be protected. The well-known issues such as race matters, people of colors and idealogy have been deeply penetrated into our society for a long time, which definitely stems from ignorance and being uneducated. In this regard, globalization is to be highlighted in that it doesn't just mean more interdependence of the world's economies or getting more knowledges on each other's country than before.
The core value of globalization results in pure understanding, meaning that no biases, prejudices and judgements should be set in place at any circumstances according to being different. An attemp to appreciate where you are coming from is a key to taking the first step into globalization.
