Gov’t issues plan to implement VN-UK MoU on anti-human trafficking cooperation

10/4/19
The PM has issued a plan on the implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Governments of Viet Nam and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland on anti-human trafficking cooperation.
The plan specifies concrete tasks and responsibilities of relevant ministries, agencies and localities in realizing the MoU.
Accordingly, the Ministry of Public Security is responsible for assisting the Government chief in establishing a inter-agency working group to implement the MoU, and designing and organizing the implementation of cooperation contents between competent agencies of the two countries.
The Ministry shall take prime responsibility and coordinate with the UK side and international organizations in information exchange.
The Ministry of Information and Communications is required to provide telecommunications and internet services and disseminate messages and information on prevention of human trafficking.
The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs is assigned to return victims of human trafficking from the UK to Viet Nam and put forwards mechanisms and policies to support the victims.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs directs diplomatic missions in the UK and other nations to effectively protect citizens, especially victims of human trafficking and supports domestic functional agencies to join hand with the British side to investigate and crack down human trafficking cases.
Earlier in November 2018, Vietnamese Minister of Public Security To Lam and UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid signed a MoU on anti-human trafficking cooperation on the occasion of the former’s working visit to the UK.

Human trafficking exists in every country and every sector of the economy. Every year, millions of migrants are trafficked internally and cross-border to eventually become victims of forced labour.

The country still has a lot to do as there remain gaps between the provincial and district levels in securing human and financial resources, tools to identify and protect trafficked victims, as well as promoting investigations and prosecuting offenders involved in trafficking.

The crime is predicted to become more complicated with increasingly sophisticated tricks and transnational activities by human trafficking criminals in the future.

It needs joint efforts from the authorities concerned at all levels and the whole society in order to improve the effectiveness of the prevention and combat of trafficking in humans, adding that strengthening communication campaigns is an important measure to prevent and curb the rise in the crime.

Localities should integrate the prevention and combat of criminals and human trafficking with the implementation of political tasks and socio-economic development policies, while raising public awareness on obeying the law and improving responsibility in actively preventing and participating in criminal denunciation.

Trafficking in women and children is often addressed as a problem related to illegal migration and social evil.

It is important to change traditional value of filial duty of daughters and inequality in the value placed on girls and boys in rural communities in areas vulnerable to trafficking.
