JAKARTA - The Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection strongly condemns all forms of criminal acts of trafficking in persons (TPPO) that have occurred again in Gang Royal, North Jakarta.
"We express our deepest concern, especially for 30 women who are victims of TIP who are forced to become commercial sex workers and song guides," said Deputy for Women's Rights Protection at the Ministry of PPPA Ratna Susianawati in a statement, in Jakarta, quoted from Antara, Sunday, August 20.
According to Ratna Susianawati, this TIP case in Gang Royal is not the first time this has happened.
"The National Police, assisted by several related parties, have succeeded in uncovering it several times," he said.
He said that TIPs are vulnerable to women, especially in big cities such as Jakarta, which have its own charm for the community to improve their economic level.
With various modes implemented, the TIP syndicate is able to lure the majority of victims, namely women with the lure of large-paid jobs through a very simple and easy recruitment process.
Even the TIP syndicate has now used social media as one of the recruitment media that is easily accessible to all levels of society.

Ratna explained that the recurrence of the TIP case in Gang Royal is a concrete and complex picture of the TIP case and needs to be a common concern that the prevention and handling of TIP must be carried out seriously, integrated, multi-partyly, and continuously starting from the grassroots level to the central government.
"I hope that the wider community starting from families, neighborhoods, villages/kelurahan, districts/cities, local governments, provinces, centers, and especially the Task Force for the Prevention and Handling of Trafficking in Persons (GT PP TIP) to be more serious and contribute to efforts to prevent and handle TIP," he said.
He added that a strong commitment, real implementation, synergy and sustainable cooperation from all parties are the keys to eradicating TIP.
