Human Trafficking Persists
Human trafficking shows no sign of abating. The U.S. State Department estimates that between 600,000 and 800,000 people are trafficked across international boundaries each year. Millions more are enslaved within national borders, often in brothels or forced labor camps. Corruption, poverty, and lawlessness all contribute to the problem in East Asia.
