AFGHANISTAN-ECONOMY-SCRAP

In this photograph taken on January 17, 2014, the vechile of garbage dealer, Noor Mohammad (26) is pictured in Kabul. Noor, who moved from Mazar-e-Sharif to the Afghan capital two years ago, buys and sells scrap metal, old tins, broken bicycle wheels, kitchen pipes and any other objects found in the war-torn city even collecting stale bread which is sold as animal food. Pulling a makeshift wooden cart from dawn to dusk looking for discarded objects, he buys pieces to trade at a small profit, haggling to get the best price from a larger scrap dealer. Noor earns around 150 to 300 Afghanis (2.5 - 5 dollar) a day. Six months ago Noor, whose fellow dealers have given him the nickname 'little man', married and he is trying to make enough money to repay his debts after the wedding.
