Who Made My Flower?

A new short film by the Human Rights and Development Foundation (HRDF) explores challenges and abuses faced by migrant workers working on rose plantations in Thailand, including difficult working conditions and unfair wages.

The HRDF calls for access to labour rights and welfare for migrant workers, including reasonable working hours and minimum wage, and for employers to provide workers with safe accommodation and working condition. It also calls on consumers to buy flowers from producers that treat their workers fairly.

Since 2007, Prachatai English has been covering underreported issues in Thailand, especially about democratization and human rights, despite the risk and pressure from the law and the authorities. However, with only 2 full-time reporters and increasing annual operating costs, keeping our work going is a challenge. Your support will ensure we stay a professional media source and be able to expand our team to meet the challenges and deliver timely and in-depth reporting.
