DVB Debate clip: "All workers in Burma are victims of slavery" (English)
- 8 years ago
This week DVB Debate discusses modern slavery.
Burma is well known for its use of forced labour. Under military rule, the army routinely forced civilians to work on state projects; building roads, military bases or even towns. And this problem continues today. Last year's Global slavery index reported that there 384,000 Burmese people are living in slavery.
