Same water in which the children catch crabs the man on the left is urinating. All around the smoke was intense!
Mixture of oil and tar being burnt and heated making it really hard to even breath! Yet it was mind numbing to see large number of people were using this concotion of waterand leaking oil to swim, play, even drink, gargle, brush their teeth and take bath all within feets of each other! Same water has the ship breaking with oil leaking making the river thick black as well as crab & fishing all side by side. Young, old, everyone seems to have the world's best immunity system! Dhaka, Bangaladesh
Buriganga River (Bangla: বুড়িগঙ্গা Buŗigônga "Old Ganges"). Buriganga is the life line and much happens in and around this river. It is the main river flowing beside Dhaka, capital cityof Bangladesh. With an average depth of 39 feet (12 m) its quite amazing to see the activities along the river. Unfortunately, the river is Dhaka's main outlet of sewage waste and is threatened by pollution and waste.
