Statement of Intent

Bangladesh has given me an impression of poor, chaos and straggle. It has a huge population that majority is Muslims. Even though the working and living environment are very destitute and tough, the people are positive and diligent and always keep a smiling face.

To earn one's own living, they are willing to do whatever job that can earn a penny. It is easy to find scavengers everywhere to look for valuable items. However, what impresses me most is their optimistic attitude to difficulties. They don't have rich substances but they enjoy every moment. Their life is simple but their spirit is abundant. The photographs captured what I met during my journey in Bangladesh.
