    Slavery is alive and well.

    It also shows that the US needs to sort out the 'human trafficking' in their own country before lecturing others.

    Sad that this type of thing is happening all over the world
    Are the woman and her parents filipino?

    Used to work on and off for a removal company in Hong Kong and the way some of the people treated THEIR maids was shocking. Asians were the worst offenders. Most of the maids preferred to work for Europeans if they had the choice.

    If you lived in the Philippines would you have a helper?
