New road construction, Khabarovsk

A new road is constructed, predominantly with the use of cheap labour from the former Soviet states of Armenia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In the distance a slogan on the roofs of apartment blocks, built during the Communist era, reads


'Glory to the Working Class'.
