Before some months, I was struggling to learn to use this machine with my friend Prem Krishna Shrestha. In Nepal, this machine is still in use. Tailors use this machine to sew clothes. From this different designs can be made. Shirts, Pants and also other stuffs. Even in some place they donot have the table portion and they use hand to rotate the ring. Yes of course it is easier to rotate the ring with legs than hands. I was very glad to see such machine here in Norway too. It was placed in Risøya folk hiskole. I thought "oh! they also use such machines, same as ours, to sew the things." I thought this was there just to show students how to sew clothes because i had heard that the school is for those who want to learn other various activities after completion of their school and before going to college. So it was obvious that there should be such income generating skills also. In some places in Nepal we use to provide vocational training of such things so that they can earn out of it. I was in same vision but when i asked about it to one of the youth leader, then he said, "we used to use those type of machines may be 20 or 5 years back. now we use china instead." I understood right way about what he is saying but Durga didn't so I had to clea
r her by saying that "previously they used such machine to sew clothes but now they import directly from China. and don't know how it is made. It was same like that the Pink Cow of farmville gives strawberry milk, brown cow-a chocolate milk." They don't know how milk with strawberry flavour is made but they just had seen the pack of strawberry flavoured milk with a pink cow painted on it. The reality is that some of them never had seen cow and how milk is collected from cow and what is the whole process.
To import clothes from China is much more cheaper than to make it by themselves here in Norway. So they use the easiest and the cheapest way of having the things.
Now i can also imagine why the stikers of human trafficking campaign are made so that it is fit to a small tin or iron cans.
