Life is in itself an amazing gift. It is indeed a gift from God. No one else is allowed to take one's life nor waste it. Human trafficking is a crime that certainly cause loss and waste of lives.

INAKALA is a video presentation about Human Trafficking made by the selected students of Nabuturan National Comprehensive Highschool.
Poverty is the possible root of human trafficking. It is a crime against the person because of the violation of the victim's right of movement through coercion and because of their commercial exploitation. It violate three commandments which are the fifth, seventh and tenth. Fifth commandment states that "Thou shall not kill." Human trafficking can cause loss of lives due to a psychological trauma or depression. Seventh commandment states that "Thou shall not steal." Basically, this crime steals the right of every victim and lead them to do something that is against to their will. Last but not the least, the tenth commandment that states, "Thou shall not covet your neighbor's good." Human trafficking is the trade of people, specifically the women and children for the purpose of forced labour, sexual slavery or commercial sexual exploitation for the trafficker or others.
This crime is all over in our country. In order for it to eradicate is, the government should be more focus and must keep an eye on this certain crime. People, especially the women and the parents of the children should be more cautious. Afterall, prevention is better than cure. Physical wound can be cured, but the psychological trauma takes time to be healed.
