A training
program on victim identification held by ministry and the United Nations Office
on Drug and crime(UNODC) in order to create a more effective strategy and
approach to human trafficking cases involving Indonesians abroad.
Fifty- two
participants comprising consular officials and staff members were arranged to
attend the training.
Top foreign
ministry official Tatang Budie Utama Razak expressed his view about the
training course on victim identification for consular officer and staff. He
also said, “The number of human trafficking cases has continued to increase and
the trend is getting more complex and varied.”
The
government’s policy to temporarily halt the dispatch of Indonesian workers in
several countries had led human trafficking cases to increase. The policy was
regarded by certain groups as an opportunity to send Indonesian workers abroad
illegally
Indonesian
Ambassador Salman Al-Farisi said apart from an early detection capacity, a more
balanced understanding of the legal perspective on worker recruitment and
placement among countries also needed to be created to better handle human
trafficking cases.
More efforts
are required to strengthen early detection and preventive measures to fight
human trafficking faced by Indonesians, with the training, foreign ministry
official expects that officials and staff members in Indonesian representative
offices will more comprehensively understand human trafficking as well as its
related aspects.
An
Intelligence based approach, bridging system would help the situation to help
in the Prediction and as well as effective control of the trafficking of the
source and Transits in addition to the destination spots (like hotels, clubs,
resorts where these visitors, sponsors, Athletes are placed). Let’s hope technology
will be used by the Social Organization in curbing the evil rate – Human
Trafficking.
