I felt so touched and also sad after viewing the short film.
There are so many people around the world dying everyday due to hunger and malnutrition...
There are people living in some of the corners, who are being forgotten and neglected by the society.
Hope those fortunate youngsters who can afford to eat fast food everyday, don't take everything that they have for granted, but to be more thankful for what they have, and give a deep thought of those less fortunate people in other parts of the world.
Think twice before you speak or act...

Quote:
"This film is about the hunger and poverty brought about by Globalization. There are 10,000 people dying everyday due to hunger and malnutrition. This short film shows a forgotten portion of the society. The people who live on the refuse of men to survive. What is inspiring is the hope and spirituality that never left this people."
it doesn't have to be like that. we know it, and what is worth, the politicians know it, too.
ReplyDeletesolution?
you are right, everywhere is the same, everyone knows about it, but just that no one really want to seriously look into "it", and improve "it", instead of keep making use of "it" as a "weapon" to gain their own power and authority.
ReplyDeleteThere is no real solution to it, but at least we could try not to make the situation worsen.
I wanted to write: "worse" (instead of "worth"), of course.
ReplyDeletethe situation is worsening by the day, and with climate change it will become a world disaster.
