Where do old clothes go?

New year, new garb. But what happens to the old ones which you’ve dutifully dropped into the recycling bin?

SOMEWHERE in Kenya, there could be a girl heading for work wearing that red Zara blouse which you got for yourself two Chinese New Years ago. And one guy could be wearing that pair of Levi’s which could no longer accommodate your husband’s growing girth. Yes, all your unwanted attire, plus the worn-out Nike, stained bedsheet, outmoded belt and pre-loved handbag which you have dutifully dropped into the recycling bin, could well end up in someone’s closet in some remote part of the world.
