Dear Sir or
Madam:
I am writing
this letter in order to express my opinion regarding the article about the shop
of T-shirts that are being sold for a very low Price and that are being made in
Bangladesh; because I know that you receive the opinions of the readers and
that you often publish them afterwards on the newspaper.
First of
all, I would like to make clear that the posture that I have supports the fact
that there should always and constantly be skepticism towards selling
companies, and that awareness about the slavery implied should always be
promoted.
We should
always remain skeptical towards all businesses that sell any kind of product or
service, regardless of the appearance and idea that the shops are generating
for themselves, because who knows where the law is since modern slavery keeps
on existing. We should never prejudice or be fooled by the price or the story
that the company is trying to form in our minds about it. It may seem logical
that the cheapest brands are the ones that implement more slavery because they
can charge less since they pay their employees less, but that does not mean
that expensive stores do not stop giving their workers the sufficient amount of
money.
I am as
well impressed by the degree to which people can be indifferent and apathetic
towards subjects with such an impact and relevance such as modern slavery, and
I am extremely glad to know about the existence of the few people that care to
make a change. We should never stop promoting awareness by whichever way we
can, because whether the uninvolved care not, hideous consequences are being
provoked.
With
sincere appreciation,
Anja Von
der Meden Klein.
