He also plans a visit to Finland to check in on the workers around September.

And do some sightseeing.

I wonder what the kickback is for placement.

I'm sure the 900 have had to pay through the nose to grease the wheels of business.

The article makes it sound like the workers are slaves, so weird.

Yes, they are. I hope they finally are treated better.

I ve seen a docu on Thai pickers in Finnland and it was terrible.

I really wondered why they would go there, as I sure wouldnt, probably all fake news to make a living.

I know some one who did this.

According to her it was hard work but the pay was good and she found herself a good husband.

She is happy and is in Finland now.
