Trip to Philippines Sara Sze F.6D "The difficulty in life is the choice", written by T. Moore. Do you agree with that? How about the people who don't even have any options since they were born? Sara Sze from F.6D went to Philippines with 30 Oxfam Club members and 10 facilitators including Kristin Chan from F.7C to explore more about Philippines Rice Industry. It was really an unforgettable experience to me! In the first day of our visit, we went to the dumping site in Manila. It was like any landfill sites in Hong Kong. The main difference is that, there are people living beside the site, and they walk in the site to find 'treasure' for sale. It is their life; everyday is like that, spending 7 or more hours in the site to earn their living. It seems to be terrible, how come you can live with the garbage?...
