500,000 Bolivians live and work in Buenos Aires, the Argentine capital. In Brasil their number approach 300.000.
87% of them are illegal immigrants, employed by hundreds of sweatshops in Buenos Aires, in Sao Paulo, in Rio; they don`t want to return to Bolivia because what they value most is having a secure source of work, even more than their own dignity," said Hans Hartmann Rivera, head of the Bolivian Foreign Trade Institute (IBCE).
They have chosen to "go from poverty to slavery" just to have the stable job Bolivia cannot offer them, he added.
WHEN ONE CHOOSES SLAVERY OVER GOING BACK HOME, ONE KNOWS WHAT KIND OF COUNTRY BOLIVIA IS.
Morales is their President, Chavez is their owner so ..... poor Bolivians. |
