cherlyn 1 Posted October 17, 2006 Those houses are the living quarters of the tea plantation workers who came mostly from Bangladesh, nepal & Sri Lanka. They were paid USD0.05/kg of tea leaves they collect. Each day they can collect about 80-100 kgs of tea leaves & they carry 40-80 kgs per load. Even when they are very uphill, they need to make their way down to the tea-leaves collection centre. Hard earned money. Link to comment
