CALAPAN CITY, Oriental Mindoro, Jan. 10 (PIA) -- The campaign against human trafficking requires the full participation and cooperation of the public, stressed the legal counsel of the Department of Social Welfare and Development during a recent forum at the Capitol Square in this city. | |||
Atty. Eric Henry Joseph Mallonga came here to explain the provisions of Republic Act 9208 or the Anti-Human Trafficking Act. The primary target of human traffickers are mostly women and minors, he noted. | |||
He explained that human trafficking starts from illegal recruitment to transporting the victims even without reasons or payment. The victims are then sold as slaves, entertainers or organ donors. | |||
RA 208 aims to protect people especially women and children who could be possible victims of prostitution, forced labor or even slavery in order to pay their debts. | |||
In Calapan City, Anti-Human Trafficking act will be strengthened this year thru continuing advocacies and formation of special bodies like the City Inter-Agency Committee Against Trafficking (CIACAT), and Violence Against Women and Children (VAWC). | |||
During the forum, the participants pledged to support the newly formed committee and its advocacy to fight human trafficking. (CGC-CIO/Louie T. Cueto) | |||
