Botswana should shun child labour - Siele

Addressing a conference organised by his ministry, Peter Siele said his ministry has not paid enough attention to the issue of child labour. He pointed out that child labour has been dominated by the traditional mindset, which influences the average citizen's view of child work.

"While the line between child work and child labour may appear too thin, it is the duty of the society to recognise it and act in a direction that will protect our children from child labour and abuse. It's our responsibility to conscientise the society," he said.
