scholarly journals Human Trafficking in North Sulawesi Indonesia

The aims of this research are to identify the factors that cause human trafficking, to describe the map of origin region and destination of delivery, to analyze the modes used by the traffickers. The method used is the Qualitative Descriptive Method. The results showed that there were seven main factors causing human trafficking in North Sulawesi. Those were lifestyle, lack of knowledge and capacity, potential employability as commercial sex workers, demand of commercial sex workers, youth marriage and limited employment in formal sectors and secullarism. Most of the victims came from Manado City, Minahasa, South Minahasa and North Minahasa Regency. The largest destination areas of the victims were Papua, West Papua, Southeast Sulawesi and Batam (the Province of Riau Islands). The modes used by the perpetrators are persuading victims to work outside the area with high incomes, cheated with debt bondage, offering scholarship programs, adopted as children, fraudulent and abducting. The efforts that need to be done to eliminate human trafficking are changing the lifestyles from consumptive to productive by increasing self-resilience (changing the paradigm of thinking to be realistic and not regarding material wealth as a source of self-esteem or avoiding hedonism) and improving self-capacity through continuous knowledge enhancement. Local governments need to enlighten the publics through various programs/activities such as socialization with emphasis on human trafficking modes, to train of members of the task force on prevention of human traffics, to cooperate and to form partnerships with other institutions and local/regional governments, to build cooperation on the prevention and handling of human traffics with non-government institutions, to break the links of sexual trafficking and other types of unlawful businesses, to prevent young marriages to stimulate job creations, especially in the formal sectors and to increase the roles of parents and education institutions

Prostitution comes from the word prostitutio which means things to place, confront, offer. There are also other articles selling, peddling, but generally interpreted as surrender to many people by getting a reward for fulfilling that section of the person. Prostitution or prostitution is a serious problem and needs improvements that need to improve society, this disease develops very rapidly in the community. In addition to the social forms of social norms, prostitution is also a form of immorality in any religion that is not permitted and rejected. Although prostitution is issued in religion or law, many of these prostitution practices occur in Indonesia. Prostitution is a lucrative and promising business place for so many people to believe in their pride. It is necessary to establish a new criminal law legislation to provide legal attention to the imposition of sanctions aimed at commercial sex workers and users of services. Because the criminal law currently in force in Indonesia is considered not in accordance with the current state of Indonesia.
