thebenefits of television

Television is popular in all Malaysian homes as it is the best form of home entertainment

these days.

First of all, television enables people to find entertainment right within their own home
without having toventure out at all. This saves on transport and time as it is quite
difficult to travel to the cinema with traffic jams all over the town. Besides, parking is a
problem in the town and so home television is greatly appreciated.

Secondly, television keeps us in touch with national as well as world events. Motion
pictures help people to follow events better than if they were to read and get the news
from the papers and magazines. The news bulletin comes regularly and we are well kept
informed of all that is happening around us.

Thirdly, television entertains children with cartoons and other educational programmes.
This keeps them happily occupied besidesimparting knowledge to them in a way
beyond the limits of classroom teaching. Adults find watching television shows relaxing
after a day's hard work. They can choose their programmes to suit their taste-detective
series, thrillers, soap operas, musicals, talks or documentaries which provide general
knowledge.
