There are many Burmese organizations at the Thai-Burma
Border for millions of Burmese Migrant workers and Burmese refugee people. They have many methods and perform in different
ways but share the same aim which is to protect the human rights of the people
especially Burmese people.
Most of the people who live in factories or farms
don’t get much knowledge so some organizations go and meet them to educate them.
Most of the topics that they discuss are Human rights, Labor rights, health
care and gender perspective.
The picture above illustrates the conversation between
factories workers, Burma Women Union staff members and discussion topic leader,
Daw Aye Aye Myint . She explained to the people about the equality of men and
women. A lot of Burmese people don’t have the chance to learn about equality
between humans, which is a part from human rights because of the Burmese
Government.
In the conversation, some women blame the security in
Thailand for Burmese migrant people. Many Burmese people don’t dare to go out
at night time because they may meet with Thai teenagers’ gangsters. Sometimes,
they hit the people and grab the money even they kill the people.
Under the topic, each family presents their life’s
experiences. In the end, they gain more understanding and the importance of
respecting each other.
