Then in the same time, the areas that had a levelling out in population growth  were America latin and Caribia, North America, West Asia with the number of 0.5, 0.25, 0.12 billion respectively.

Some of them are to change  local culture  to the permisivism, to give any kinds of religious overview and to change the freedom of thinking.

Television can change local culture to the permisivism. It is shown by many TV's programs adapted from abroad that make local culture left by the community. Then the abroad culture do not match to local society. Maybe they suggest that  abroad cultures are more interesting than local cultures are. Besides, the community fed with abroad culture. Therefore copying abroad culture  sucah as the way in wearing cloth, kinds of food, musics, films and so on makes the local culture  not unique and amazing. Overall, these are negative effects  that are caused by television. Accordingly, there must be an attention from authority and stake holder to keep the regulation on TV's program in good circumstances. This regulation can reduce or minimyze the negative effects.

For example, TV's programs can reach the small town or small villages by the encreasing of technology, then the religious program will lead the society to the proper view of other religions. Moreover, the values of religious program change their bad habits to nice activities.
