Well, I can broadly say education has helped cultural understanding and tolerance most of the time. And people say ignorance is a disease and what you don’t know is bigger than you. So education has helped a lot of people, a lot of cultures and traditions because education brings about firstly, and urbanization, you go out to be exposed to a lot of things and there is a kind of knowledge that comes with education apart from what you are studying in school that is of great help to the community. Okay let me view it from this kind of aspect. Maybe there is a particular town that has believed that there is another town in the eastern part of them or maybe to the right side and then there’s another town at the left side and both of them are sharing river water. So maybe the river water is contaminated with maybe cholera, maybe there is a dipatocular bacteria that causes cholera inside the water. And then the two villages are clashing with each other that it is this village that wants to kill the second village or it is village B that wants to kill village A. What they actually need is education. Maybe someone that is intelligent that will know that these symptoms are cholera symptoms, not effeci- effeci- effeci- or maybe they are trying to kill their self. It is just something that is basic and medical.

Well, I can broadly say education has helped cultural understanding and tolerance most of the time. People say ignorance is a disease, and what you don't know is bigger than you. Education has helped a lot of people, a lot of cultures, and traditions because education brings about urbanization. You become exposed to many things, and there is a kind of knowledge that comes with education, apart from what you are studying in school, that is of great help to the community. Let me view it from this aspect. Maybe there is a particular town that believes there is another town in the eastern part of them or maybe to the right side, and then there's another town on the left side, and both of them are sharing river water. The river water may be contaminated with cholera or there may be a particular bacteria that causes cholera in the water. The two villages may clash with each other, thinking that it is this village that wants to harm the other village or it is village B that wants to harm village A. What they actually need is education. Maybe someone intelligent will know that these symptoms are cholera symptoms, not something else, or maybe they are trying to harm themselves. It is just something basic and medical.
