I have just become familiar with the remarkable DOI CHAANG coffee from Thailand (thank you Robert) which is not only top quality but pays the people twice Fairtrade prices and gave the Akha people 50% of the Canadian company..P.Pachecos, Calgary Alberta

The King of Thailand presented the hilltribes with agricultural alternatives to opium growing, including coffee plants. One indigenous tribe known as the Akha was the beneficiary of this scheme. A Canadian chose to back the Akha people 100% in this venture.Thanks to to his generosity in giving the growers a 50% share in the Canadian company, 'Fair Trade' has since evolved into 'Beyond Fair Trade'--a noteworthy business model to emulate in terms of sustainability and sound ethics.-P.

consider this,when labor is completely forced and there is no wage at all, i see it ok that we try to make those responsible take responsibility for thier actions,but this isnt always the case, depending on the product, some sweatshop workers, cocoa/ceffee farmers, etc. actually make a wage, albeit a very small one, but its still money,if we stop the companies that are giving them this money, we would be taking away what little money they have, i love fair trade, but how do we avoid this?

this is a wonderful video.
I'm doing an advert for a project at school based on fairtrade.
Would it be possible for me to use some of the pictures that you have used?
Thanks :D

Can I clarify one thing? Starbucks is NOT fair trade - only 6% of their coffee is fair trade certified, so when you buy coffee at starbucks, even if it IS fair trade, the money is going to a company that also supports non-fair trade coffee (not to mention that none of their sugar, honey, or tea is fair trade). Look around for coffee shops in your community that buy 100% fair trade products.

@imthebluefaery Yes, but there is a movement to make Starbuck's fair trade. They do sell fair trade coffee, if you ask for fair trade coffee, they will have no problem with it at all.

Plus, when you buy local the money supports your community's economy, not some huge corporation.
