Katu : In the past, our family is very
poor. We don't have enough money to buy

save money. My children are not able to
get any education instead they need to
work. In our previous province, there was
no job for us because of drought and
scarcity. Someday, we don't have any
work to do, so we didn't earn any money.
This is why we trying to find other
