westernization /modernization

the two terms are totally different,but unfortunately in our society both are thought to be same.
the problem lies in our thinking and actions.
if our country was on the road to modernization than it would be great but the dilemma is that we are actually headed towards

westernization.
it means we are literally killing the great easternization,our culture and our identity.
to me modernization is what we need.the reason 4 this is that if we have modern infrastructure in every field than our country

can progress.we need modren educational system with all the latest facilities to improve our standards.we need to modernize

our transport,roads,defence,health sector etc............
why we confuse the two terms.westernization as the name suggests is to absorbe the western ideas and culture into our

culture.there is a clash b/w east and west.espacially when in an islamic state the concept of westernization takes place it is a

total fiasco.
like we are slowly adopting the old thrown out ideas of west into our lives.our society is confused or this westernization is

actually making us leave the basic principles of islam.as we move away from islam we are growing closer to western ideas.our

life style is changed,no repect for women,relationships like tissue papers,old parents in old homes,our banking systemetc............
while we need to improve every sector of our life that is to make it modern.
modernization is actually improving the old system making modification with time for the benefit of people.like in malasiya people are modern yet at the same time religious.
why cant we do the same.
