Mariati

After reading this article, it left me a couple of feelings. Although human traficking and prostitution is forbidden it is still one of the oldest trade in the world. I bet Susana is worried sick for her daughter, not knowing about her whereabouts or well being. Until now Susana has not given up searching for Mariati. Despite selling her house and cars and even her relationship with her husband has not shaken Susana a bit. Her courage and determination is truly amirable.

Not many people could not have gone this far for others even their loved ones. But i felt that Susana faking as a prositute to get more information is crossing the lines. Have she ever thought of the consequence that could have happen? What if she was found out and murdered? It is good to spent so much effort finding her daughter but not to an extent of endangering her own life. At first, she started out only to find her daughter but on the way she saved many girls. I believe she has indeed helped many that shared the same plight as Mariati. Susana has even received awards for her courageous act which i think she deserve.

However, prostitution cannot be stopped as it as seen as a need to protect other innocent girls from those 'beast'. If it could be stopped it would not have been one of the oldest trade and the government would have bannd it long time ago. But I feel that forcing girls into this kind of job is inhumane. For me, I feel this job is disgusting and would never even think about it. Imagine you are been forced to the job, how does it feels?

I think we should spent more time searching for missing people such as Mariati as her families are worried. You might not feel anything now but if this were to happen on your beloved, I believe it is another story

In all I like to conclude that we should learn from Susana's determination and save those victims.
