Does human trafficking sicken you? Come learn about it


(Each of the six words above will link you to a different online article. I suggest you right-click and choose to "open link in new tab" so that you don't leave this site.)  

It is indeed timely that there will be a public seminar on migrant and human trafficking issues which is co-organised by SWWS and Tenaganita. 

It will be held on Saturday 31 July from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in St Joseph's Cathedral Parish Centre (Jalan Tun Abang Haji Openg). 

Admission is free. (This is not a church event and members of the public of all religions and races are most welcome.)

Objectives of the seminar:
1. To understand the migrant scenario in Malaysia 
2. To raise awareness about human trafficking issues
3. To promote recognition of the rights of migrants
4. To address practical issues concerning migrants
5. To help create a more compassionate community

Thanks to Ann Teo who alerted me on this -- I hope to see you there!
