      Many years ago, watching a view of events on a screen as well hearing its sound at the same time was a daydream. But now, television makes it true. Television presents events taking place in places thousands miles away in front of us.

      Television makes the world narrower and long distances shorter. What happens at one moment in other parts of the world can be seen and heard at the same time. The great concert in London or the busiest haours of the New Your Stock Exchange can be watched on the television screen. Television does not only inform us of the world situation but also gives us some new information on science, technology, art and sports; periodically it presents many kinds of entertainment programs such as plays, films, musical shows, jokes, games and many others.

      The government uses television to inform the people, for example, of the family planning program, the reports of the local development, the domestic economic growth, taxation, tourism, public health and so on.
