Notice the fresh white starched collar. This can be really tough to achieve in the absence (I’m guessing) of water-out-of-a-faucet let alone a washing machine. Not to mention the money to buy the uniform blue sweater.
A small detail perhaps missed by the casual observer – but an indicator of just how much energy and effort are sometimes involved by individuals struggling to raise overall standard of living (happiness). Then somebody like Robert Gabriel Mugabe comes along (next door in Zimbabwe) who "steers the country to greater glory". Heart breaking.
