Jobless migrant workers sleep rough

Jobless migrant workers prepare to spend a night on the street near a job market in Yiwu city, East China's Zhejiang province, on August 4, 2011. Each year, tens of thousands of migrant worker flock to Yiwu, a famous commodities center in China, to look for jobs, but some of them who are old, less educated or without special skills cannot immediately find jobs. Consequently, they have no place to sleep after running out of what little money they had with them. This year, it is estimated that about 250 to 300 migrant job hunters have not found jobs and have had to sleep on the street.[Photo/Asianewsphoto]
