When I saw the documentry I felt very pity for the little girl PUNAM. It was one of the documentry shown to show how child labour is going on in the world. I was so unhappy to see our country's example regarding to child labour.. Why the story of the child from our country why not from india, china,, why not from other country is being shown . I then called couple of people and then told them to watch the channel.Well I kept on watching the documentry and found a very shocking fact that 12 million children are being forced to child labour every year.. wow!!! that's shoking fact.. The documentry showed small children working in brick factory .Small children working in the place breaking stones. And alot of children working in carpet factory and so many other places..But Punam was one lucky girl out of so many unfortunate girls out there .. She was able to go to school and was able to get the basic requirements of life. Punam had faced the hard part of her life that's working as a child. But know she is living a new world where she have seen the bright side of the world. But looking through the documentry if felt so sad to see people living in this world in such situation to survive... -Rocks Child labour © UNICEF/ HQ98-0464/ Balaguer An estimated 218 million children aged 5-17 are engaged in child labour, excluding child domestic labour. Some 126 million of these children are believed to be engaged in hazardous situations or conditions, such as working in mines, working with chemicals and pesticides in agriculture or working with dangerous machinery. They are everywhere but invisible, toiling as domestic servants in homes, labouring behind the walls of workshops, hidden from view in plantations. Millions of girls who work as domestic servants are especially vulnerable to exploitation and abuse. An estimated 1.2 million children are trafficked, forced into debt bondage or other forms of slavery (5.7 million), into prostitution and pornography (1.8 million), into participating in armed conflict (0.3 million) or other illicit activities (0.6 million). However, the vast majority of child labourers – 70 per cent or more – work in agriculture. Regional estimates indicate that: The Asian and Pacific regions harbour the largest number of child workers in the 5-14 age group, 127.3 million in total. (19 per cent of children work in the region.) Sub-Saharan Africa has an estimated 48 million child workers. Almost one child in three (29 per cent) below the age of 15 works. Latin America and the Caribbean have approximately 17.4 million child workers. (16 per cent of children work in the region). Fifteen per cent of children work in the Middle East and North Africa. Approximately 2.5 million children are working in industrialized and transition economies.
