In the Aluminum factories located in Chittagong city of Bangladesh, I had tried to get closer to the subject and to record their daily working life. According to my local friends, due to poverty and low literacy rate, many families rely on the income generated by their children. These children are often denied their rights to formal education. However, they have the opportunity to learn some simple mechanical operation in the Aluminum factories, their daily routine is being occupied with works that include machining, heating, pressing and assembly of parts. They live in the factories and do not need to worry about the three daily meals as they are provided by the factory owner.
Think about it, although the life to the child labour is tough, but comparing with those street kids who are experiencing homelessness and live on the street of the city, they are considered luckier.
