Lured by Jobs in Afghanistan, Nepalis Face Risks and Death
In Nepal, a weak economy has driven workers to look for employment in other countries in order to support their families. Many of the Nepalese people have found work in Afghanistan, but that comes along with its own risks. Nepalese workers guarding the Canadian Embassy in Afghanistan were killed last week by a bomb Taliban suicide bomber. These workers were forced to pay immense broker-fees that would take months to pay-off just to acquire these jobs.
