Do you know that there are over 600,000 to 800,000 people becoming the victims of the human trafficking worldwide. Very fantastic!! Can you imagine that if one of the victims is your family, relative, or your friend? The number can be much more than that. They are forced to be prostitute, slave, housekeeper with less payment, faming labour and many others.

This is one of trafficking case quoted from www.usemabbasyjakarta.org:

“Katya, yang memiliki putri berusia dua tahun dan mengalami kegagalan berumah tangga di Republik Cheko, mengikuti saran seorang “teman”nya yang mengatakan bahwa ia bisa mendapatkan banyak uang jika bekerja sebagai pelayan di Belanda. Seorang agen membawanya bersama empat orang wanita muda lain ke Amsterdam, dimana Setelah mereka dihubungkan dengan penjual dari Belanda, ia dibawa ke rumah pelacuran. Setelah mengatakan “saya tidak akan melakukannya”, ia dijawab “ya, kamu akan mengerjakannya, jika kamu ingin anak kamu di Republik Cheko tetap hidup”. Setelah bertahun-tahun diancam dan dipaksa sebagai pekerja seks, Katya diselamatkan oleh seorang pengemudi taksi yang baik hati. Katya saat ini bekerja di sebuah rumah sakit dan belajar untuk mendapatkan sebuah gelar dalam pekerjaan sosial.”

Guys, If you care and are willing to help, please let everybody around you know about this. Pass it on!
