"あなたが完全に読み書きのできない状態で一日一ドルで生活しているならば、グローバリゼーションの恩恵はあなたに決して届かない。"
— Jimmy Carter
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine you can’t read or write and you only have a small amount of money each day, like one dollar. It’s hard for you to know about or take advantage of the new products, jobs, and opportunities that come from other countries. Globalization means the world is more connected, so things like technology and information spread quickly to places all over. But if you don’t have the basic skills like reading, or if you are very poor, you miss out on these benefits. For example, if a factory opens that needs workers who can read instructions, you can’t get that job. So, to make sure everyone benefits from our connected world, we need to help people learn and earn a better living.
