While some kid is crying for not getting the latest Iphone , the other kid is struggle their life to find some little money for their dinner.
While some kid is because not getting their latest gaming gadget , for some other kid this is their playground .
Some grow up complain not getting enough in life , but they feel so blessed with a little profit for the day.
This photo was taken in one of the rubbish dumping area in our place. To be honest the area is so smelly , i have to wash my body few times to get rid all the smell but most of them living in those area.
I ask the kid what make decide to do those job and not go to school. They say they ll get some money for food and to buy some sweet if they got good haul , they cant go to school because they parent don't have enough money to pay even to their tuition fee and another most common problem they have is they don't have proper identity documentation for school registration. They being call an outcast because their parent don't have enough knowledge know-how to apply the documentation and even they have the knowledge it is very difficult process and need a lot of money to process. Somehow i agree with what they say because i heard around that the process is not easy , end up they ,"it is better i use my time to find food for our dinner".
They say every, those lorry bringing hope for them. Every new thing that being bring by those lorry can become they source of income. Sometimes if they being lucky , they ll get good stuff.
What is average you ll get per day ?
Maybe around USD 5 or nothing especially when its raining.
This bag is still look good and can be used after being restored.
This is where i get some rest especially when the sun is so hot. I get my lunch here with the kid.
It is very sad days for me but i think if they think this is the best for them , i ll pray that someone who with power can help them to get at least a better life especially the kid. I believe getting proper education is very important and they must being given chance to change their life in future. Its doesnt matter where come from , but what is important they still human being that need better tommorow.
Even those job was very hard , but they have my thanks at least the waste can be divide into recycle item and save some part of our dyeing world.
I believe this is happening all around the world , its just we didnt realize how lucky we are and we need to be grateful for who we are.
