"The best way to get rid of child labour is to make it unnecessary for the security of families. That is to say we have to provide families with the economic, social and political security that would make it unnecessary for them to use their children to secure their future. If we want to secure the future of our globe, we have to secure the future of our children and let us start by doing that to putting an end to child labour," said Aung San Suu Kyi.
