quickly pulled the welding takes chances. as the war dragged on for four years that was the height on the soldiers and black. this beer can on the standard road for help. some seven hundred thousand foreign workers came to from saloon. this is them from other parts of europe but also from the colonies in africa and asia. among them less some coke and f forty thousand tiny it's the onesie in the chinese community in paddy's get this in the small town to commemorate them this is an unusual day in the village of million sandown in northern france the boss of chinese visitors has arrived from parents even chinese soldiers from the french foreign legion have come. their destination is a small cemetery on the outskirts of the village the final resting place of a country of thirty eight chinese who died here during world war one. it's a chinese custom to remember the dead on the first weekend in april

even though none of the visitors is a relative of any of the dead here. soon after to do to me see that she meets this is bitching mean festival. an important chinese tradition to you on yet it's the day when we go to the cemetery and cleaned the grapes to me to do to even the normally the children of the deceased do this but these people have no children. so we do it that's our tradition. see see look. here were soldiers laborers. during world war one the british brought about one hundred forty thousand chinese to france to keep the war machine operating for many it was a journey of no return. the storm. it occurred to him. willow wheel and use this yet on that. our countrymen year supporters of french and english in world

war one in the morning the coming season with the gpu. we're here to remember him in more than one meal today. choose. tony and home. issue one income. on the tens of thousands of chinese workers came in trains like this from the port town of you often they worked in munitions factories should be ours. and even as farmers in the fields dominique canon law is a journalist for local news he's been tracing this story for twenty five years. few people had ever heard about the fate of the chinese laborers in this remote part of france whatever the case they were told this was the kind of volunteer service abroad. i don't think they imagined that it would be like it was hard work and

familiar surroundings the climate hold it together i think they were startled by what awaited them. these into reading twenty nine there was a chinese camp on these fields next to the village of nowhere this email. witnesses who have since died told dominique dunne and find that the british soldiers treated the chinese like forced laborers. they worked ten hours a day six days a week and receive starvation wages if a broker role. they were severely punished. all macho book without him out of trouble below our feet lines a lot of misery. this is where the chinese lit. you have to imagine it. during the day he suffered from the heaviest lever in the evening they returned here exhausted where it was a much better. to me. the camp was locked up in. there was a sick day and even a mental

hospital. for those who couldn't take it anymore. but so far from home and cut off from their family has been able to unicef and many went crazy ocd. oh and to coordinate fish from here the workers marched every day and layered train station to work. the political play calling to me. yes the man is located between the top of the strategic port in world war one and the nearby front the rail lines here were essential supply lines for the allied forces. fit dough to cover any additional investigation wait till the chinese were here. they had to prepare the rails which were regularly damaged by bombs that went just imagine if they had to carry the rails here in lake temple from the same time sen gravel when the data did what he was all extremely happy abt it and the chinese tended to be shorts and delicate. and

they had this journey full of hardships behind them. all you. the topic was so good it was an incredible drudgery we would need to contribute to our guide says if mom was talking on the field. the new canon law isn't the only person interested in this story. the challenge is here at the cemetery for the first time. the inscriptions on the gravestones revealed that many of these deadbeat come from his home city in china now the ones to send theheir names to the archives at home in the hope of finding some descendants. so called good ca i will call what i think this is important to us says up being the person that there's ever my ancestors that said i would want to know what happened here in france. people can stay you know how they experience the war. undaunted i will post the plug in cd. even

after one hundred years the chinese in france want to preserve the memory of the fate of their countrymen so they'll be back next year to observe each evening festival among the graves when he answered me. it is still tense between the west and russia after the annexation of crimea the baltic states in particular have been what's the most is that removing ukraine very closely the governance of us need to for help. the lady that president putin might secretly planned to seize as standing in line and hit twenty weeks like ukraine will south regions with a large russian speaking population. knew. and not buying this tenure for some fall nine to ten and have the tunes on boxing. the town is located right on the border with russia and has been struggling with an identity crisis since the standing and declared its independence in nineteen ninety one. safe as anyone in
