Running like Bob

One more pic on the Chom Chau project (VIJ2008012G) and in particular about the garbage collection issues. The factory workers who share rooms in the cheap housing near their work throw the garbage down from the balcony. No one has money to pay to the garbage collection company… It just stays there. Stinking… And it is not rainy season yet…

Besides that I’ve been doing short stories on vasectomy promotion (VIJ2008021G)…

and on the soaring rice prices (VIJ2008020G) and the pre-election measures taken by the government like prohibiting the export of rice and having state-run companies sell rice for cheap (0.45$ instead of 1.5/2$ per kilo)…

That and the launch of www.Ka-set.info peppered with a few power cuts has made it a busy week…
