Abstract
A social trend that
should trigger an emotional reaction in Indonesia as a nation that has enjoyed
independence for the past 68 years, is none other than human trafficking.
Indonesia is listed at 114 in the register of this modern form of slavery with
around 220 thousand victims. Globally, there are around 29.8 million victims of
human trafficking. Indonesia is one of the 17 source, transit and destination
countries, involving criminal activities such as sex slavery, forced labour and
child procurement. This situation is pretty evenly spread among all of
Indonesia’s Provinces. The roots, the process and a way forward are highlighted
in this brief study.
Keywords: Human trafficking, perbudakan, migrasi,
keluhuran martabat manusia, hak asasi manusia.
