Decisions in Paradise , Part 1
Among the issues raised in the case , the major issue would be the
diversity of people living in Kava . According to Alex , people living in
Kava is divided into four religious groups namely indigenous , Christian ,
Buddhist and Islamic . We all know that religion is one of the powerful
forces that drive humanity and which also serves as their guidance .
Therefore , any clash between the said religious groups only causes great
disaster due to conflict of interest as well as beliefs systems and
this seems to be what is happening in Kava as Nik arrived in the said
country .
The difference in beliefs and interest of people living in Kava creates
a big wall that separates one another and later on serves as the root of
having an unharmonious environment . It would take a great effort to
unite two religions with different belief systems and values which
provides their identity and significance . War is inevitable especially
in Kava which has no established security forces that will ensure the
peace and order situation within the country .
Moreover , aside from religion , there are still other factors that
contributed to the diverse ideologies and beliefs of those people living
in Kava . The range of ethnic groups in Kava , based from the statement of
Alex , is composed of Chinese , African , French , Spanish and Americans
which has its own distinct culture , norms and behavior . In this regard ,
we could say that there is a racial conflict evolving between the ethnic
groups living in Kava due to the said differences between the above
mentioned races . Racial biases only magnifies the conflict in religion ,
therefore , could trigger war between the clashing groups of people .
The lax security and severity of the differences in ideologies , beliefs ,
and races causes the said ``mess ' in Kava . Although there are
organizations that try to surpass the said clash between the various
groups of people like the government , community based organizations and
faith-based groups still , it seems that the problem has not been solved
even for just a small degree based from what Nik observed as he arrived
in Kava .
Aside from the difference in religion and race , another problem in this
case would be the fact that Kava is located in South Pacific where
natural disasters such as typhoons , volcanic eruptions , earthquakes ,
tsunami , floods , fires and tornado that causes major damages not only to
the lives of people living in Kava but also to their economic
development . The said identified natural disasters could possibly many
lives of people living in Kava and destroy their houses and other
properties . As for the economic welfare , natural calamities damages
major crop production of Kava such as coffee , bananas , cocoa , spices and
sugar . Just imagine how much cost will farmers incur by the time a
tornado struck their banana plantation . Income of every household will
surely be negatively affected by any natural disaster . The economic
development of...
