At group blog Malagasy Miray, US-based contributor Malagasy aty California explains (Fr): “When I go shopping, it is generally to cope with homesickness. So I … look scrupulously for tags that say ‘Made in Madagascar’. When I lived in Cincinatti, I looked for those in vein.. [But .in California] ‘Made in Madagascar’ products do exist and are found mostly on textiles and food. [1] So I buy my clothes at Old Navy … I choose ice cream made with Malagasy vanilla … And to me that is my way of being close to those who spend hours and hours behind machines in the free zones of Tanjombato, Ivato or elsewhere.”
