The documentary I posted was sent to me by my father. I watched the whole thing on my tiny phone screen. It’s a topic I learned a little about from my SOCY101 class. I find it very interesting to learn about other countries. The film is good in the fact that it always has the everyday civilians being filmed. The film is meant to educate and create awareness. It’s about people in the Philippines being influenced/targeted by big oversea businesses and companies to buy infant formula. In a country that’s very poor, the parents of children will spend all their money on formula that can “Help make your child healthier, stronger, and smarter.” In the US, we understand that women’s breas milk is the best option for a baby for many reasons, and that formula here is just used when needed. The film is an attack on those companies taking advantage of people’s situations. The doctor’s get a kind of bonus when they get a mother to believe in infant formula and have them buy it. It is a big business for these companies because it is normal to have many children per couple. It’s very sad that these kids suffer and die from malnutrition while companies like Nestle are raking in the big bucks. They also film the groups that are trying to educate the women in the Philippines. The video is hopeful, but I noticed I shun away from Nestle products in general now. There are many greedy companies, but companies that are greedy and evil should be banned.
