A Dockyard Worker, by Shahnaz Parvin

He is Abdur Razzak, age 38, working in the Keraniganj dockyard. He doesn’t have any room to take rest. Two years ago he came to Dhaka to find a job, and end up become a dockyard worker. Every month he sends 90% of his salary to his daughter and wife in the village. In this capital, no one knows him and maybe no one ever will, just like the millions coming and working here in Dhaka, fighting for life, for their basic need.
