Dec.21 - China on Thursday released an anti-trafficking plan for curbing² human trade in women and children for the next five years.

The plan, to be implemented³ from 2008 to 2012, set a general objective to minimize crimes of trading in women and children and to minimize the physical and psychological pain they suffered.

According to the plan, a ministerial-level joint⁴ meeting headed by the Ministry⁵ of Public Security (MPS) would be established and local regions, especially where trafficking cases frequently occur, should set up relevant organs.

The meeting would involve 28 government ministries⁶, including the ministries for Foreign Affairs, Education, Finance, Health and State Industry and Commerce Administration, which would make a concerted effort to halt trafficking crimes, the plan said.

The full text was on the central governmental website www.gov.cn. It elaborated on the main measures and organizational arrangements of the meeting.

The fund supporting the joint meeting and local anti-trafficking activities would mainly come from central and local governments and individual contributions. In addition, international aid would be actively⁸ pursued, the plan said.

At bus and train stations, airports, ferry docks and other locations where trafficking of women and children mostly occurred, the National Civil Aviation Administration, Railway and Transportation ministries would pay more intensified⁹ attention, it said.

To curb¹ trade in women and children, the Public Security Ministry, Labor⁷ Ministry and State Industry and Commerce Administration would more severely¹⁰ crack down on illegal trading in the labor market and punish or clamp down on illegal labor agents.

The plan also promised that governments at all levels would improve salvation¹¹ measures to women and children who suffered from kidnapping and trafficking by providing more training, physical and mental therapy and rehabilitation¹².

The Health Ministry and its affiliating¹³ organs should organize certain medical institutions to provide medical care for suffering women and children, it said.

Du Hangwei, director of the investigation¹⁴ bureau with the MPS, said that as the first national anti-trafficking plan, it concerned all aspects of the job. This included preventive education, crackdown policies, victims aid, repatriation¹⁵ and rehabilitation and international and regional cooperation.

The United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund estimated that roughly 1 million children were bought and sold every year, mostly for sexual exploitation and forced labor.

The MPS said that it had uncovered 2,500 human trafficking-related criminal cases in 2006 and saved victims from suffering.

As part of its anti-trafficking effort, the ministry had hosted a vice¹⁶ ministerial-level Mekong regional meeting. The meeting involved Cambodia, Myanmar, China, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam, countries where human trafficking had become more commonplace in recent years.
