The Problems In Big City

My hometown, Bandung is a big city with some social problems. But in this opportunity i will explain just 3 biggest problems of many social problems in Bandung.
The first and the biggest Bandung's problem is population. Actually, Bandung has only capacity for 500.000 citizen, but nowadays Bandung's citizen is becoming out of capacity, 2,3 million people. That number is predicted to still grow and grow, and there is a prediction that in 2025 the citizen of Bandung will be about 10 million people. Can you imagine how dense Bandung will be?
The second is unemployment problem. With too many people in too small place, the job opportunity in Bandung is becoming very low. Job is very difficult to find, even for the scholar, especially for uneducated people. This problem increase the number of unemployed people in Bandung, and consequently, the beggar in street is becoming increas too.
The third problem is traffic jam. With a population that has exceeded capacity, of course Bandung is becoming more and more densely. And consequently, the streets in Bandung is always been full of traffic jams. Beside, Bandung as the city of fashion and capital city of west java was always visited by travelers from many others city, especially in weekend and holiday. The public transportation is also the cause of traffic jams, because almost all of angkot's drivers is driving carelessly.
So, the conclusion is the most important social problem in Bandung is population. And that problem is creating another problem in another aspect. I hope the government can fix this problem.
