Rickshaw Driver

Interview today: a rickshaw driver that used to work at the Biratnagar Jute mills. After it closed he had to get a job driving a rickshaw to provide for his family. Working the rickshaw he makes about 150 Rs/day = 2 usd. He lives with around 12 family members...most of them women.

Today the factory members will get some of their salary that the comany owes them. If they are not paid in full then something will happen most likely.

As of now my story is finally starting to take form:

1. Strikes: Nepal has only had minimal amount of days without strikes causing many problems but also as a reaction to the government instability. It's causing the economy to go down and
2. Biratnagar : main industrial area of Nepal but many of them are closing down including the first and largest Biratnagar Jute Mills.
3. A rickshaw driver who is personally effected by the closing.
4. Many people are starving and jobless because of the strikes which is a reaction of the political instability and corruption.
5. An interview with someone who participated in the FIRST strike in Nepal which was for the first factory in Nepal...the Biratnagar Jute Mills!
6. What needs to happen in order to change the situation.

--This outline is bound to change but for now this is what I'm working with.
