Did you know ….
- that about 8 in 10 of the suspected incidents of human trafficking were classified as sex trafficking by the Bureau of Justice Statistics
- that an estimated 60,000 to 100,000 children in the Philippines are involved in prostitution rings according to UNICEF
- and that between 1.2 million and 1.8 million children are trafficked each year world-wide according to the International Labor Organization
In a report found in Child Trafficking in the Philippines, Unicef reported that the primary causes of child trafficking in the Philippines include poverty, low economic development, gender inequalities, limited employment opportunities, lack of public infrastructure, inadequate awareness, and sex tourism.
Human trafficking is no joke, what more for sex trafficking. Worst part about it is that even helpless children whose lives are supposed to revolve around of fun and play are victimized by this. Beautiful children played with, abused and controlled for money.
