Introduction Writing is a complex process that consists of some activities such as setting goals, generating ideas, organizing information, selecting appropriate language, making a draft, reading and reviewing , then revising and editing (Hedge, 2.
Moreover, it is an important part, a reflective exertion that requires enough time to suppose the specific content, dissect, and sect, and to classify any background knowledge.
Brown .
explains that writing is the most complicated and delicate skill in language skills.
It is because there are several rules that have to be learned by scholars similar to spelling, alphabet and punctuation, consonance and association of ideas.
Furthermore, a coherent paragraph flows easily from beginning to end by using nouns and pronouns constantly throughout a paragraph, using https://jurnal.

thought in one sentence with the idea in another sentence and show the relationship between them (Oshima and Hogue, 2.
Moreover, transition markers are mainly conjunctions and adverbial phrases which help readers interpret pragmatic connections between steps in an argument (Hyland, 2.
Furthermore, good writing requires using enough transitional signals to form the relationships among the ideas clearly (Oshima and Hogue, 2.
Moreover, they are named sentence openers and usually at the start of a sentence or paragraph to relate it to the one preceding it and they can also come within sentences to connect one idea to another within a sentence (Hyland and Anderson, 2.

Regional food security is a main priority," he said, according to a written statement received in Jakarta.
The region is still susceptible to disruptions of food supplies, he said.

and allowing access for a special envoy and aid.
Political, social and economic chaos have gripped Myanmar since the military overthrew an elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi last year, led a deadly crackdown on dissidents and unraveled years of reform in the erstwhile fledgling democracy.
ASEAN, which has barred junta leaders from its meetings since last year, repeated last week its commitment to the so-called five-point peace consensus, but some members have urged a stronger stance.
The foreign ministry of Malaysia, which has by far been the most critical of the junta, said it would be "calling for a more decisive stance by ASEAN" at this week's meeting.
Indonesia's foreign minister last week said the junta, not ASEAN, was squarely responsible for a lack of progress on the peace plan and those recommendations would be made to leaders this week on strengthening its implementation.
Members such as Singapore and the Philippines have simply urged dialogue and compliance with the peace plan.
The junta has blamed a lack of progress on the pandemic and obstruction from armed resistance movements that it calls terrorists.
James Crabtree.
Executive Director of the International Institute for Strategic Studies-Asia, said ASEAN was struggling to cope with internal divisions over Myanmar and other issues.
"Whether it is Cambodia as chair now or Indonesia next year those divisions aren't going to go away, and that is likely to continue to limit the bloc's ability to pressure the junta in Myanmar or respond smartly to rising great power competition," he said.
'Little Progress Expected' The bloc, which has a long-standing tradition of non-interference in members' sovereign affairs, has ruled out Western-style sanctions against Myanmar or expelling it from the 10-member group, even as it condemns increasingly violent actions by the junta such as the recent executions of democracy activists and an air strike that killed 50 civilians.
One Western diplomat who will attend the meeting said that, while the bloc may try to make the Myanmar peace plan more action-oriented, "little progress is expected".
Cambodian Prime Minister and current ASEAN chair Hun Sen has repeatedly made overtures to Myanmar's generals in the hope of getting them to cooperate.
The efforts have produce "limited achievement", acknowledged Kao Kim Hourn, a senior Cambodian government official and advisor to Hun Sen.
But he added: "At the end of the day, without ASEAN intervention.
Myanmar could be far worse.
" World leaders who have condemned andsanctioned the junta, including US President Joe Biden, will be in attendance, as will friendlier nations to Myanmar such as Russia and China, represented by Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Premier Li Keqiang respectively.
Officials expect this week's summit to be a difficult one, with discussions also expected to include the war in Ukraine and regional tensions over the South China Sea.

Russian President Vladimir Putin won't be going to Bali.
(Sergei Karpukhin.
Sputnik.
Kremlin Pool Photo via AP) (AP) The summit would have been the first time Biden and Putin were together at a gathering since Russia invaded Ukraine in February.
Indonesian President Joko Widodo is hosting the event on the island of Bali.
"It has been officially informed that Russia's President Vladimir Putin will not attend the G20 summit, and will be represented by a high-level official, and this has been discussed by President Joko Widodo and Putin in previous telephone conversations," Pandjaitan said after meeting security officials in Denpasar, the capital of Bali.
"Whatever happens with Russia's decision, it is for our common good and the best for all of us," added Pandjaitan, who is also the coordinating minister of maritime affairs and investment.
Russian Foreign Ministry and Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed on Thursday that Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov would the delegation instead of Putin.
He did not give a reason.
In March.
Russia's ambassador to Indonesia Lyudmila Vorobieva had said Putin "wants to go" to the summit.
That prompted then-prime minister Scott Morrison to voice concerns about sitting around the table with the Russian leader, saying it would be a "step too far" amid the ongoing invasion.
Albanese had already committed to attending the summit, prioritising diplomatic relations with Indonesia, a country more than 270 million "I'm focused on sitting with President Widodo, not sitting with President Putin," he "It is in Australia's interest to have good relations with our Indonesian friends.
Albanese said he would, however, be keen to meet with the Chinese president, after years of strained relations between the countries.
AuI've made it very clear that dialogue is a good thing.
And so if a meeting is arranged with Xi, then that would be a positive thing," Albanese said on Thursday.
"We are organising a range of meetings, but they haven't been finalisedand locked in at this point in time.
" Pandjaitan did not know why Putin decided not to come but said "maybe it's because President Putin is busy at home, and we also have to respect that".
Pandjaitan said the same reason might be keeping Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at home as well.
Widodo earlier this year travelled to Kyiv and Moscow in an effort to get the two leaders to sit down in Bali and make peace.
The revelation of Putin's decision not to attend the summit came as Russian forces in Ukraine suffered significant setbacks.
Russia's military said it will withdraw from Kherson, which is the only Ukrainian regional capital it captured since the beginning of the invasion and a gateway to the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula.
Russia's announced retreat from Kherson along with a potential stalemate in fighting over the winter could provide both countries an opportunity to negotiate peace.
Army General Mark Milley, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on Wednesday.
said as many as 40,000 Ukrainian civilians and "well over" 100,000 Russian soldiers had been killed or wounded in the war, now in its ninth month.
Same thing probably on the Ukrainian side," Milley added.
The G20 is the biggest of three summits being held in South-East Asia this week and next, and it remains unclear if Lavrov will represent Russia at all of them.
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations summit began on Thursday in Phnom Penh.
Cambodia, followed by the G20 and then the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Bangkok.
Thailand.
Biden had ruled out meeting with Putin if he had attended the summit and said the only conversation he could have possibly had with the Russian leader would be to discuss a deal to free Americans imprisoned in Russia.
Biden administration officials said they had been https://jurnal.
