English Assignment – ”The hidden face of Globalization”

Summary:

I have watched and listened to "The Hidden Face of Globalization" and I am going to tell a short summary about it. It takes place in the country called Bangladesh, as lies in South Asia. We heard about young people, 80 % of them are women in the age 16-25 years, who every day works with products to the whole world. All the days at the week goes with hard and long work days.

There live 1.8 million people who work in Bangladesh; there are 3600 factories and over 900 millions garments, which are export to The United States each year. Each morning there are tens of thousands women, who are streaming around in the streets on their way to work and again at the night, when they are on their way home from work there are many women on the street. They walk an hour to and from work, because they cannot even afford the bicycle. They work in large factories and sitting in front of a sewing machine all day long and sew these clothes, we buy. A normal work day is from 8 am. to 10-11 pm., that is 14-15 hour every day 7 days at the week, but they have free 2 times at the month.
