Dear Sir/Madam,
thank you very much for the relentless efforts you are making to end child labour. Here I would like to raise my concern related to the topic under discussion. My concern in connection to this point is that how it is feasible to ending child labour in developing countries in general and all poor countries mainly poor SSACs in particular without defeating poverty? My suggestion is that first of all due attention needs to be paid to alleviate poverty the basic and chronic evil of human being. Poverty is the cause for all human evils such ilitracy, child labour, etc. Making a multidimensional approach to uproot poverty in poor countries is very decisive. Poverty is the mother of everything. Causes of poverty are diverese and numerous. I would suggest again and again to give equal or more emphasis to alleviation of poverty parallel/complementary to the efforts made to ending the intended child labour as targated.
