Construction of a new heat and power plant in Stockholm, Sweden

Construction workers in Red Square, Moscow

One after the other for long hours, they take on they heads these dishes full of concrete, about 20 Kgs each time!

 

I am told these workers make about 170 rupees a day ....which is between 2 and 3 US$. Seems they get more when going to Kerala (ie around 8 US$ a day) . Will check this next time i see them..
