God's blessings may seem unequal to many...when some people are more intelligent than others...or others have more wealth than others...or other have more power and higher status than others...but equality comes when we give praise to the humble workers who are diligent in their work...and they are the poor majority, or the common people, who are the ones who truly sustains the life of Humanity...that in their union with one another, that they would rather pour their efforts in uniting with other colonies...as to become stronger...and have a voice in Humanity...as loving parents...
As I was shooting my blue yonder photo at the pedestrian bridge near the commuter station in Västerhaninge, I noticed a man from Banverket, the Swedish Rail Administration in action so I aimed the camera at him. A photo for the world at work.
Workers cutting grass. Many people have their career paths chosen for them in Nepal by their caste or even ethnicity. The traditional caste system in Nepal essentially forced entire clans of people into one type of labor. While these traditional employment systems are not as widespread as before, they still continue in Nepal.

Beijing, due to the Olympics next year, is being rebuilt at an unbelievable pace. The construction duties are falling squarely on the shoulders of construction workers being brought in from the provinces. Often mis-treated and underpaid they're responsible for the biggest urban facelift in modern history. This guy is a welder.
He will pick up anything you ask. And many things you don't ask... especially small pieces of trash and fuzz on the floor... he's already "clean" conscious.
I opplag like utenfor Rubbestadneset. Rederiet som eide den tidligere ferga, er konkurs, og fartøyets sjebne videre er uklar. Hun ble bygget som fergen "Kveøy", og ble solgt i 2011 til Optiship.

Die CIA World Factbook raam die per capita bruto binnelandse produk van Afghane op $900 per jaar. Dit plaas Afghanistan 218de uit 227 lande - dus een van die armste lande op aarde. 'n Mens hoef nie na statistieke te kyk om te besef hoe arm die gemiddelde Afghaan is nie. Jy moet bloot by jou deur uitstap en kyk wat alles op straat aangaan.
Afghanistan het twee ekonomieë - die ware, formele ekonomie, waarvan die oorgrote meerderheid van die bevolking deel is, en die oorlogsekonomie, waarin slegs 'n baie klein deel van die bevolking betrokke is, en munt uit slaan. Die probleem met hierdie twee ekonomieë is dat die oorlogsekonomie dit selfs moeiliker maak vir die deursnee Afghaan om 'n bestaan te maak, aangesien meeste van die hulpbronne deur die oorlogsekonomie besit en beheer word, en die prys van produkte daardeur opgejaag word.
Ek staan altyd effe verbaas om te sien hoe skarrel gewone Afghane op 'n daaglikse basis om 'n bestaan te maak. Die lewe is hard en moeilik, maar daar is monde by die huis wat gevoer moet word. Een en elkeen spring uit; veg vir die dag se inkomste, veg om 'n bestaan te maak. Vir hulle is die oorlog teen die Taliban iets wat vaagweg in die agtergrond gebeur. Hulle oorlog is teen armoede, honger, koue en siekte.
Vandag se foto (en ek glo nog baie foto's hierdie jaar) is van 'n bejaarde Afghaanse man. Hy verkoop naan (platbrood) en kebabs (sosaties, maar sonder die stokkie). Oud en afgeleef, maar hy is "out there", besig om 'n bestaan te maak. Ek kyk baie dae na hierdie mense, en dan wonder ek hoeveel van hulle slaan dood neer terwyl hulle besig is om te werk. Aftrede is hier nie veel van 'n vooruitsig nie...

As an effort to document the lives and the struggle of Indonesian domestic workers to be recognized as workers, the International Labour Organization (ILO), in collaboration with JALA PRT and the Jakarta’s Independent Journalist Alliance (AJI Jakarta) launched a book titled “We Will Not Be Silent: 31 Stories of Domestic Workers Behind the Domestic Walls” on Thursday, 10 August 2017, at Wisma Antara, Jakarta.
In the launch, seven leading Indonesia public figures will lend their voices to the plight of domestic workers who have to work long hours with low wages and without employment contract, day off and leave, social protection and legal protection. Selected stories will be read out by Director General for Employment Placement and Expansion of Ministry of Manpower, Maruli Hasoloan, Lukman Sardi (actor), Morgan Oey (actor), Nia Dinata (director/producer), Sari Nila (presenter) and Giwo Rubianto (Chair of Kowani).
