Conclusion
As you can see human trafficking is a troubling thing across this world, especially in South Asia. So many free people in South Asia are becoming sex slaves or are being forced into hard labor for very little pay, sometimes none at all. These people also lose their homes and everything they have, in other words they are practically slaves. Human trafficking has been a big issue in South Asia since the 1950's. It's been an issue because there is so much money to be made by traffickers. It's almost as if trafficking is an industry nowadays in South Asia. People in South Asia are so poor that they are even trafficking there own family members. The struggle continues in South Asia and this urgent situation needs to be stopped as soon as possible.
