Photographer’s Note

I found this blue tent in front of Municipality building in Tchiatura, 180km away from Tbilisi, our capital.
The people inside the tent are former mine workers who became handicapt and whom goverment refused to pay their pension.
They live here already for 7 month, make food inside and burn fire to get worm.
Is anybody interested in their life????- don't think so, they are far away from the capital so neither journalists, no foreigners can see them. They simply don't exist.
Posters on the walls??? - THE ROAD TO NATO LIES THROUGH TCHIATURA!!!! HOPE FOR BETTER FUTURE!!! RETURN OUR DEBT!!! and the last one-behind the photo of out President (which he used in election company)-WAITTING FOT YOU!! :( :( :(
Pity, pity, really pity!
