| The two little boys wear a happy smile on their face when they are on board a two-wheeled cart pulled by their mother. |
 |
| 28-year-old Ho Thi Tem, who is eight months pregnant, daily draws rickshaw to feed her four children, the eldest of whom is about nine year olds. |
 |
| After school, three children pictured in this photo help their mother earn a living running barefoot, pulling goods through Lao Bao international border gate. |
 |
| Rickshaw puller Ho Thi Gai, 42, often carries goods to earn some extra money. |
 |
| The workers are waiting to be hired to transport goods. When it rains, it’s very hard for them to find employers. |
 |
| During the lunchtime, a woman still waits patiently for employers. |
 |
| These workers gather together and chat while waiting to be employed. |
 |
| Ho Thi Nu, who has worked as a rickshaw puller for 10 years, takes a short rest after doing a “heavy” delivery. |
