章節(jié)摘錄

版權(quán)頁：插圖：Two strange things struck Huang. First, there were children absolutely every where, with the older kids leading flocks of younger siblings. Some young girls, who looked like elder sisters, would pull up their dresses in the streets and breastfeed the babies they camed. Huang later found out the localpeople mature at a young age. Some women who appear to be in their 20swere actually just older than 10. With many mouths to feed and few sources of income, the local people struggle direly with an oppressive quality of life. It's common place that before a guest leaves a restaurant, several women with redribbons pinned to their robes would collect the leftovers. These volunteers, who work to combat HIV/AIDS, sweep the remaining food into plastic bags. Crowds of children throng outside the windows, some already licking their lips. They would mob the volunteers outside the restaurant. The eldest would take the bags and triumphantly march to the shade, younger kids in tow.Another thing that struck him was the number of weapons in civilianhands. The avil war, which lasted more than a decade, had distributed a great multitude of weapons among the people. The UN tried to confiscate illegal arms through offering in cenhves to their owners. A avili an who handed over a weapon would receive $300. But they would get the money in two installments - $150 when they turned in the weapon and the rest a few months later, after the people had proved they were no longer members of illegal armed groups.This approach enabled the UN to rapidly confiscate 80,000 weapons. It is estimated about 20,000 went uncollected. In other words, an average of one in 30 Liberians owned a weapon. This meant armed fights remained constant. In Liberia, it s common to see a person walking the streets in broad daylight with an AK47 slung over his back.
