🔽Bangladesh is in the grip of workers’ protests. Garment-factory workers are demanding a higher minimum wage, which currently stands at 12,500 taka per month (about $100). Their wages barely cover housing and food, even though they work overtime. The strikers have halted production at hundreds of factories, and clashes with police have erupted in the streets. Details are in our video. Hard labour in Bangladesh is not confined to garment workshops. Brick-factory workers make bricks by hand and face cruelty from their employers. This is the subject of the film ‘Brick Slaves.’ #protests FOLLOW 🥰 News&Docfilms Channel
