I think that it is really bad that kids and adults are having to work day and night just for a tiny amount of money.
We get freedom so why don't they get it.They are people too, so they need the same amount of freedom as we get.We need to let them have a bit of money New Zealands money to give to their town and start it running again and so the people do not have to risk their lives and also they need to have fun.
DON'T LET OTHER PEOPLE RUIN OTHER PEOPOLES LIVES THEY ARE THE SAME AS US.
Get them a recycling unit and get a proper dump started.
Also get the children a proper education so they can get a better job to be abel to earn a living and get a better experience of life.
Note - Amelia, I reposted this in the correct area. Thanks for your comment, it is really thoughtful.
I think we play our part in the world by keeping our country clean we can't stablise other peoples country as well as ours we need need to act fast and get it right those people are apart of our lives they are not dumb dolls they just need help come on room 18 think of an idea that will save the many people suffering think of ideas inform people to help you to coquere this hard and thoughtfull task we are not the only people on earth so do your part but mind not to stress up our own country sam.
I think that it's no fair that people ruin some other people's lives by blocking them from joining the city or not give any support.
They have to scavenge all day to find clothes and other stuff we have in our everyday life.
They need to get a recycling unit to help and maybe even make their goverment think of what they could do to help the people who live in the dump.
Why can't we just give a little bit of money like $10 a week.
Those people in the dump need to get a education so they can have a good life.
They even have not much shelter from rain!
i think that there's really nothing that new zealand can do if we were desperate to give them money for house's, shop's, food, clothes and other stuff we could do a fundraiser so that every country can give their donation so it's showing they care
I think that its the goverments fault for not looking after there country
I don't think that its fair that some familys have to go to the dump to make shelter and we can't give them money because its not going to help because the rubbish will still stay there.
I think that New Zealand could help the dump people by making laws, creating proper recycling factories, or giving them homes. It's defintily NOT fair that they have do scavenge and risk their lives while the govt dosen't help them.
I think this is very bad and i agree with amelia they are people they need freedom no person sould have to deal with this .....so we sould make a big day for us all to go there and help but the olny people that care sould go!!no one sould ever have to risk there life!and u sould try see what they live thorw we sould have a donatcion day for them and send it to them so they have a better life so they get the money for good things like homes,schools,food,and a hostpitle or a docder.
I think that we should move the dump somewhere were people aren't there and where animals aren't the kids need to live on they should get money to start a proper city one with a way of recycling collecting rubish they should be allowed to live like us not risk there lives.
it is bad for the children because they need education
I think that these people shouldn't have to do that because it is not fair that other people get to lounge about and have a wonderful life while others have to scavenge around in dumps to try to make a living.We should send some money over there to Cambodia to try to release them.I agree with Amelia when she says that they should get a recycling unit and a proper dump.I think it is really unfair how young children have to live and work there to I think they deserve an education.Work like this should be stopped in all countries because no one should be made to do this no matter how bad they have been in life or no matter how rich or poor they their is no exception for making innocent people live like that.
I don't think its right for people to live like that and for there goverment not to do anything while peopledie of starvation and hardly geting payed at all to spend all day and night find ing different types of rubbish most likely from different countrys
I think it is terrible becuase they don't get a proper life and freedom. I think these people need a safe place to live and the children need a good mother and ideally a father to look after them. I think countries should donate money and the people who dump there should pay money so then the money can toward giving them good education and drinks and food so that can get skills and get jobs and go to university when they are older. I think ideally they should use the the donated money to build a safe community where they can grow food and be healthy and not get any viruses and feel better about whre they live.
