I’m not good in telling such stuff and this is not a review of the show.
I saw this show in Australian channel and I was deeply moved.
It shows a group of People who live in such luxuries who are immersed
From the source of their luxuries. Luxuries such as leather stuffs, gold
Jewelries and electronic gadgets. I think it has 5 or so episodes but I only get to
Watch the last 2 episodes. Our country(Philippines) was part of their immersion.
The hierarchy of things in Globalization is a deep issue here. The raw
Materials that came from 3rd world countries and the labor is fucking cheap
But when the item is branded and exported to the “other high countries”. They
Got the big income and from that raw material, they increase the profit a ten to a hundred
Fold. The laborers of that product couldn’t afford the item that they produced.
The people who immersed to the countries where shocked from what they saw.
One of the guy who was working all day, he said I just want to study but he is forced
In a environment that to live you must work. In the Philippines, they got to bond with some of the co workers and know the situation of their life. One of them is forced to work
For their family and child who lives in the province. They went to the province and was shocked that the child doesn’t recognize his mother as her own because the child doesn’t see his mother often. It’s very ironic that the mother is the one working for their survival yet her own child doesn’t acknowledge his own mom. It’s very heart wrecking to see, how much if you are the one on her own place. Why is it that the term Globalization still benefits the higher countries more than the third world countries. I think this globalization is quite wrong, In our country, the former president said we are going towards globalization yet why are we still in ruins?
It’s just a harsh reality for me..
