.....Well in years past when I was there the city moved 24-7. I dealt with people on the street level and business level but poverty did exist. I will never forget seeing Aberdeen for instance. I don't even know if it's still there. You could smell it 2 miles away.
Though working conditions in Asia were never of the standard you'd find here, the people I saw were grateful to have the work. There were few safety nets. I never made the mistake however of judging them by our standards or diminish them either, I never saw harder working people.
I remember when you could hire a damn nice looking girl for a can of corn and hold her a week for an electric fan, or a pair of white tennis shoes, but the prevailing economics didn't necessarily change the fact that she was an alluring female and a good fuck.![]()
