Child labour, a photo from Yangon, South

Photographer's Note

Myanmar's industry is extremely poor.
Even if parents work hard, they force their children to work more than at school because their wages are lower. In Myanmar, there is a shortage of industrial plants that provide labor. It is difficult for Myanmar child workers to earn 2~3 dollars a day.

In Korea, there was a lot of child labor until the 1970s, but to solve this problem, we created many industrial cities and focused all our political capabilities on exporting Korean products.

Politicians should do politics for the benefit of the people rather than private interests.

Hello Jang,

There is no shame in being poor, but one should be given the opportunity to work oneself above poverty here.
Many countries just don't let this happen.
Your black and white picture suitable the children
An excellent composition.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice weekend,
John.
