Exploitative Amazon

It is shocking that a multinational tech giant was complicit in exploiting Nepal workers.

More than two generations of Nepalis have spent their sweat and blood to help boost the economy of labour destinations in the Gulf, doing what is colloquially called a “3D” job: Dirty, difficult and dangerous. In an ideal situation, the contribution of the previous generations should have helped improve the working conditions for the new ones in those destinations. By the same token, the situation of the Nepalis themselves should have improved significantly. But things seem to remain where they were decades ago, the only difference being that the exodus of Nepalis is intensifying.
