Watching this clip brings numerous things to mind.

What comes to mind for you?

That we have to do more for our Country, not just rely on foreign institutions.

Betrayal comes in mind, especially to the Northerners. I was so mad watching this clip, but i didn't know who i was mad at. It is so saddening!

We are to blame and no one else.

What would it take for us to save their helpless child laborers?

The problem is whilst a long existing problem has been brought to the fore, nothing has been said or done to help in providing a solution. Any thoughts on this?

It is trully sad to see these children working like slaves and not having the opportunity to an education. Most likely they will work their entire lives doing the samething and their offsprings as well. In third world countries, it is difficult to survive without the help of your children. They must help in order to feed the family. I blame the corrupt government... if they would only share the wealth a little, more children would be able to afford an education and in turn would improve society.
