Labour Day Parade As It Should Be…

If you have doubts about the possibility of having Labour Day parades nowadays in Cambodia, here are a few photographs from past ones in Phnom Penh. There is nothing wrong with them. They celebrate those who work to make some people rich… They celebrate those who make your designer’s t-shirt for a monthly salary which will buy you 3 or 4 meals in a European restaurant…

Most of these photographs can be found in ‘A Fine Thread’, an ebook for the iPad and Mac OS running ‘Mavericks’ about the garment workers sector in Cambodia. It contains over 500 photographs and an in-depth analysis by Robert Carmichael. The ebook is divided in 10 chapters: A Fine Thread, Working, Shuttling, Living, Checking, Learning, Remembering, Protesting, Confronting and ends with a multimedia piece. It can be downloaded for $US 4,99 at THIS LINK.
