before judging the actions let's take a little trip. unforgettable. we travel to tanzania a country in east africa known for its incredible landscapes unspoiled beaches and the best safaris in africa. however what this promotional film does not specify is that tanzania is the incredible land of coca-cola. here everyone waits for red and white buses who. longside regine dwight moves and
6:36 am
in the playgrounds children play around red and white the logo is everywhere though ofter a while you was stopped noticing it. the good news is that in this country you can still find coke bottles made out of real usable glass but this will soon be over. what the american company is doing in tanzania what it did in the united states fifty years ago replacing the glass bottles with plastic ones. and. that is what is going on behind these walls inside one of the poor coca-cola factories in tanzania. our guide is james mother the manager of the new production line
