UNORGANISED SECTOR and lack of social security (Old Age and Begging!!!!)

Old Age and Begging - Watch more funny videos here
This video clip is dedicated to those who work in unorganized sectors in developing countries. Through this traditional Indian classical music and song I wish to bring attention of old aged people who lack social security to secure their old age... and the respective countries... to address this issue in priority. Most developing countries lack social security schemes to their citizen employed in unorganized sectors. Without social security and lack of family or children care most old aged people come to street for begging through all means. An old aged blind man singing (with his female partner) out side Hindu Jain temple, in Khajhuraho (Madhya Pradesh) India. This beautiful music and song belongs to Tulsidas Ramayana. Listen and imagine your old age without the support of children and lack of social security. Be prepared.............. Brought to you by: UNORGANISED SECTOR and lack of social security - OVER 70-80% OF WORKING POPULATION ENGAGED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY IN INFORMAL UNORGANISED SECTORS IN ASIAN COUNTRIES, SOCIAL SECURITY TO THEM HAS ESCAPED ATTENTION OF MOST OF ALL THE ASIAN AND AFRICAN COUNTRIES.
