Description
Summary:The crime of human trafficking in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic has increased. Human trafficking is a problem that impacts more than just the labor market, such as the recruitment and delivery of migrant workers, but also sexual exploitation and enslavement. The Indonesian government has taken attempts to abolish human trafficking as criminal conduct, including through legislative protections such as Law Number 21 of 2007 on the Eradication of Persons Crimes. However, when cases of human trafficking are settled in court, legislation No. 18 of 2017 about the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers is sometimes used as the basis for implementing the law, which has a lesser penalty. The number of cases of human trafficking that have been resolved in court has not increased, despite an increase in the number of criminal cases of human trafficking. Because the general population is unaware of the human trafficking statute, they are hesitant to report the crime.
