English GBPP of SMU and Rahmatan (2010: 9) emphasize that writing is a language skill which is a kind of communication activity to develop the student's ability to communicate in English in a globalized area.
From the argument above, it is clear that writing is man's way of communicating and expressing their idea or encoding of a message through the graphic symbol.
