Ordinary Afghans struggle to survive
Budding businesswoman
Saeema's husband was shot dead in a local dispute five years ago.
"It was terrible," she says. "My children lost their father
and I couldn't support them. I was forced to beg in my village."
An aid project has since provided Saeema, 32,
with a cow that enables her to sell dairy products in the market.
Today she gets nine litres of milk per day from her cow,
earning her up to 6,000 Afghanis ($100) per month.
She can also provide her children
with fresh milk and cheese.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil
is for good men to do nothing...
