“I don’t like this job”
Mizan, age
8
“ I have been working on this tempo during the last
month. I earn 30 taka a day. I came from Barishal. My father
died about a year ago. He had a gastric ulcer. My mum married
again and brought us to Dhaka. We rented a house in Azimpur – it
costs us 400 taka a month. My mum works in a garment factory
now. She earns about 500 taka a month, but she does not like the
work. She is looking for a position in a hospital. My brother
does not work, and my stepfather is nor working either, so my
mum and I provide the financial support for the family. I don’t
like this job. I hope I’ll be able to work in a restaurant
soon.” |

Mizan, age 8 from Barishal, in Green Road, Dhaka.
