Preparing for a full day of working and studying, then travelling along crowded boulevards or narrow streets filled with motor scooters and returning home after a busy day. They usually live in large houses, or high-rise apartment blocks or even in a small rental room equipped with modem facilities, like the Internet, telephone, television and so on. Industrialization and modernization as well as global integration have a big impact on lifestyle in the cities. The most noticeable impact is the Western style of clothes.
