Trade As One

I just came across this story on CNN. The FBI just busted 3 American sex tourists in Cambodia and are being brought back to the US to face prosecution. Reading this story brought mixed feelings for me, relief that these men were arrested, but grief knowing that this is just the tip of the iceberg. Poverty and a lack of legal protection for the poor have wrought incalculable damage in Cambodia, and as always, those that bear the heaviest burden are the women and children. For us, it’s a reminder to keep supporting the great work happening in the midst of all of this at Hagar. They bring hope and restoration to rescued victims, and ensure that their children will not be subject to the horrors their mothers have escaped.
