Being in safe, developed and prosperous country is the wish of any citizen all over the world. Therefore, a balance among defence, economics and education is essential. I, thus, do not totally agree with the point that government should spend a considerable proportion of budget for defence.

They’ve got exactly what they want.
However, no one can deny that living in the safe side; in other words, having peaceful life is one of the most important things we all need. What happened in the past alarms us to consider.
