Скачать или смотреть The Most Dangerous Job: Palm Tree Climbing in Myanmar

Palm tree climbing is one of the most dangerous jobs in Myanmar, and yet it remains an essential part of the country's economy. Palm trees are a valuable resource, providing everything from food to building materials to cosmetics. But harvesting the trees requires climbing to great heights, often without protective gear or modern equipment.

For many palm tree climbers, the daily income is a mere two dollars, a sum that seems almost unthinkable given the dangerous and grueling nature of the work. Climbers scale over a hundred trees a day, their lives constantly at risk from falls, snake bites, and other hazards.

Despite the challenges, palm tree climbing is a proud and time-honored tradition in Myanmar, passed down through generations. For those who do the work, it is not just a means of survival, but a way of life.

We shine a light on the brave men and women who risk their lives every day to harvest palm trees in Myanmar. Through stunning photography and first-hand accounts from climbers themselves, we explore the beauty and danger of this ancient practice, and the vital role it plays in the country's economy and culture. We also examine the challenges facing palm tree climbers today, and the efforts being made to improve their working conditions and ensure their safety.

Scope Myanmar will focus on beautiful places, politic, different cultures, arts and aspects of daily lifestyle in Myanmar.
