| Brazil's booming economy is drawing migrant labour from across Latin America and the Caribbean. Workers are lured by the promise of easily obtained working papers and access to seemingly endless job opportunities. This open door policy is especially appealing to Haitians who remain trapped in the aftershocks of the 2010 earthquake. Deep in the Amazon basin, there is a gateway for these new workers - the small town of Brasileia. And the gatekeeper is Damiao, a municipal worker. In 2009 he was asked to "help out" with processing the paperwork for these new labourers. It was a job he thought might last a few months. Now, four years and more than ten thousand migrants later, he continues to meet the daunting needs of an unceasing flow of desperate humanity. SUITE :link |
