Laws are the norms that govern all human actions that can be done and should not be carried out both written and unwritten and have sanctions, so that the entry into force of these rules can be forced or coercive and binding for all the people of Indonesia. The most obvious form of manifestation of legal sanctions appear in criminal law. In criminal law there are various forms of crimes and violations, one of the crimes listed in the criminal law, namely the crime of Human Trafficking is often perpetrated against women and children. Human Trafficking is any act of trafficking offenders that contains one or more acts, the recruitment, transportation between regions and countries, alienation, departure, reception. With the threat of the use of verbal and physical abuse, abduction, fraud, deception, abuse of a position of vulnerability, example when a person has no other choice, isolated, drug dependence, forest traps, and others, giving or receiving of payments or benefits women and children used for the purpose of prostitution and sexual exploitation.

ASEAN member countries are migrant-sending and receiving countries. Around 7.3 million ASEAN citizens are migrant workers, more than 740 thousand refugees are from Myanmar, and many ASEAN citizens are victims of human trafficking. Frequently, these migrants get discriminatory treatment, which makes them unable to fulfill their human rights. ASEAN, as a regional organization, is an actor that can implement migration governance in the region. As a governance institution, ASEAN has several migration instruments relating to human trafficking and migrant workers. To implement this regional instrument, ASEAN forms bodies that function to encourage and protect migrant rights. The Rohingya people from Myanmar still experiences forced migration and displacement. However, ASEAN still does not have a comprehensive instrument that can be a source of regional governance toward the issue. This paper will discuss the prospects of ASEAN migration governance in resolving migration issues in the region.

Human Rights Violation

This article identifies some challenges faced by the Brazilian State in eradicating human trafficking. International Human Rights Law is the instrument I adopt as a conceptual paradigm for analysis of the State’s conduct, arguing that Brazilian National Policy implemented since 2008 does not meet the preventative needs, the repression of perpetrators, nor victim protection as proposed by International Human Rights Law. The conduct of State powers shows that human trafficking is still conceived as a criminal offense, rather than as a human rights violation. Existing published Brazilian studies commonly approach human trafficking in terms of criminal law. I analyze it under the umbrella of International Human Rights Law, disassociating human trafficking from an exclusively feminist approach, and describing it in terms of a global human rights violation pattern related to international migration flows. I emphasize some interior legal concepts commonly overlooked by juridical doctrine, such as vulnerability and exploitation, with attention to cultural attitudes that help determine policy.

Human Rights Violation

Peningkatan jumlah tenaga kerja Indonesia yang diberangkatkan keluar negeri seiring dengan kebijakan nasional diikuti oleh peningkatan berbagai masalah yang mengarah pada pelanggaran hak azasi manusia. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui berbagai kekerasan yang menyertai setiap tahap penempatan tenaga kerja Indonesia dan dampaknya terhadap kesehatan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metoda kualitatif dengan metode pengumpulan data wawancara mendalam dan metoda analisis tema. Penelitian diadakan di Propinsi Sumatera Barat, pada bulan April-Mei 2006. Hasil penelitian menemukan semua TKI berangkat pada usia muda. TKI dengan tingkat pendidikan/ akses informasi terbatas mudah terjebak dalam pemberangkatan ilegal. Semua TKI mengalami beberapa bentuk kekerasan secara bersamaan dan berulang Besar dan besar dampak kekerasan bergradasi menurut jenis kelamin. TKI legal mengalami eksploitasi karena peraturan dan mekanisme penempatan yang belum melindungi hak azasi manusia. Kekerasan tidak hanya terjadi ketika TKI bekerja di luar negeri, tetapi sejak pra pemberangkatan sampai saat pemulangan. TKI ilegal menghadapi resiko pelanggaran hak azasi manusia yang lebih besar dan mengalami kekerasan dengan gradasi dampak yang lebih berat. Untuk menghentikan pemberangkatan ilegal, disarankan pada Dinas Tenaga Kerja Propinsi Sumatera Barat untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat tentang aspek migrasi internasional melalui informasi publik. Kepada Depnakertrans RI diharapkan dapat merevisi peraturan dan melakukan upaya diplomasi yang berorientasi pada perlindungan hak azasi manusia dengan merujuk pada kesepakatan internasional.Kata kunci : Kekerasan, kualitatif, TKI, Sumatera BaratAbstractIndonesian government has determined a policy of employment placement as national program. With the raising number of Indonesian migrant workers, the related problems are also raising. The research is qualitative research and data were taken by in-depth interview method. The aim of this study is to know the form of abuse of Indonesian migrant workers in all placements and its health impact. Thematic analysis was used in this study. The study was held in West Sumatera Province in April –May 2006. The research finds that all of Indonesian Migrant Workers left the country at young ages. Those workers with low education level or had limited access to information were easily trapped in illegal departure. The form and magnitude of abuse were gradual according to sex. All Indonesian migrant workers experienced various kind of abuses simultaneously and repeatedly. Illegal Indonesian migrant workers are exploited because of the rule and mechanism of placement do not comply to human rights protection. Abuse does not only happen when Indonesian migrant workers are abroad but also before leaving and after coming home. Illegal Indonesian migrant workers faced higher risk of human rights violation and undergo abuse with greater impact. Government should improve citizen awareness to prevent abuse through elimination of illegal departure by giving information to wider public, and to have strong political commitment to revise rules related to migrant workers as well as to foster diplomatic efforts towards human right protection of Indonesian migrant workers.Keywords: Violence, qualitative, Indonesian migrant workers, West Sumatera

Human Rights Violation

Human trafficking is a serious human rights violation. To combat human trafficking, the United States government and the State of Texas are shifting policies towards addressing the demand for commercial sex in an attempt to disrupt the trafficking “market.” In order to better understand the sex trafficking market, we examine its components, specifically: suppliers, the supply of victims, and purchasers of victims. This article also provides an overview of federal and Texas anti-trafficking laws and how these laws address demand within their texts. Finally, the article provides an overview of some common demand reduction techniques.
