President Marcos has ordered two government bodies to step up and harmonize government and private sector efforts in combating human trafficking. | DYGalvezINQ
“Hindi hahayaan ng administrasyong ito ang pagtapak sa karapatan ng mga Pilipino saan man sila naroroon kaya ipaglalaban natin ito sa abot ng ating makakaya,” he said.
“So heightened public awareness is key. That’s what we spoke about a little bit earlier. The Presidential Communications Office must assist IACAT in its communication campaign against trafficking in persons in order to amplify the effort,” the President said. People without work and source of livelihood, he said, make them more vulnerable to human traffickers and it’s time for government intervention and protection.
Marcos also raised the need for the Philippines to maintain its status in the tier system and “we must make sure that we do not fall out of Tier 1 into another tier.”
