Do they invite people outside the country? I’m currently residing in a place where workers in sugarcane plantations are really abused. They are overworked but almost never paid. I really hope you can invite the landlords of this place as the workers really really need help. Is this even being held annually? Do they invite people outside the country?

Do you already have a final programme for this conference? I’m sure all of these topics will not be dealt with all at once. So will there be any discussions or forums in the conference?

Clearly, I see, MacDonalds is not doing too well. But there must be other restaurants as well. Not that I was going to eat at MacDonalds anyway! I usually prefer eating 'food' for dinner. But at any rate, I would like to support those that are doing the right thing and it would be helpful to know exactly who they are. I see you mentioned Taco Bell in your write up. There must be others too! Hello,
