Working is the most honorable, noble, greatest and most beautiful endeavor.

From farmers and construction workers to medical workers, scientists and teachers, working people from all walks of life are contributors to social and economic improvement. They are heroes, pioneers and fighters amid epidemics, disasters and social undertakings. They beautify and heal the world with their hands, shoulders, love and sweat. On the International Workers' Day, let’s salute all these workers.
