I am from Arroz e Feijao, a small town in the northeast of Brazil. Building a factory in there will . V; c$ b7 M" C! h4 h/ a
bring a lot of advantages and disadvantages, but I believe that Arroz e Feijao will mostly benefit " x7 `; J+ X, o2 }
from the building of a new factory because it is largely populated by poor people and the factory 7 ^7 k& V$ r9 D7 w1 n# O, N' U

factories usually make noise. Beside clean drinkable water and fresh air, an ideal community

First of all, the factory’s construction will surely improve the local infrastructure. To run smoothly,

Generally speaking, I agree with the plan to build a factory near my community. If the factory can be managed successfully, the factory and local residents can have mutual benefit. |
