Sex Slaves in Nepal

Illuminating the worldly disturbance of Modern-day Slavery Speech by Lisa Kristine Speech Review by Kitty XUE Writing ? Lisa Kristens speech astonished the audience by simply presenting lives of slaves all over the world, and it is undoubtedly a successful champion her voice low and grave, full of sympathy and grief her photos soundless in time visually and emotionally powerful.Perhaps because Kristen has seen all these slaves with her own eyes, she talks in a way that makes people feel that these stories are no longer lives of unadulterated strangers in some remote country, but lives of someone that the audience bonk oflives of ordinary people, who should shoot had a peaceful breeding. Her speech leaves people guilty of their ignorance around the seriousness of the existing slavery in the modern world. Among various groups of slaves witnessed by Lisa Kristen were sex slaves in Nepal. The story of a sex slave in Nepal usually starts with poverty.In a country where half of the population is unemployed, modern girls and their family members are easily lured by the job promises made by the so- echoed job hunters. Poor young girls follow the job hunters in the apply of getting a well-paid job, and a decent life in wide cities like Kathmandu. Very often, however, they end up in a dirty hell known as the cabin restaurant. There, they are trafficked as sex slaves. Curtains are drawn to provide privacy for each dwell in the restaurant, or to be more precise, to provide privacy for the customers internal harassments.The girls are expected to serve food and drinks to these rooms, but more importantly, to reciprocate the male customers demands so that the sale can boost. Eventually, the girls entrust have to, instinctive or not, start prostitute themselves to entertain the money payers (Mavrich, City in Focus Kathmandu, Nepal). Girls that refuse to comply are often physically intimidate by the cabin owner some are said to have been hit by wires, rods and hot spoons (Ruffins, Rescuing Girls from Slavery) others are threatened with defamation, blackmailing and practice of law harassment (Regmi, Plight of confine Keepers).Some girls who had been rescued revealed that they had to serve twenty to twenty-five men a day (Trenwith, The appalling side of Nepal sparks a womans entreat). People are certainly moved and re-educated when they hear about the life stories of the slaves, for it hurts to see and hear about those coarse hands, dust-covered faces and vacant looks. just what about afterwards? Will people still care, or provide they go back to their comfortable home and gradually forget about the shock they once experienced during the speech because they have their own family and jobs to bother about?Or to think even further, when few people leave behind be affected by slavery, should this be a world concern? The answer would be yes. This has nothing to do with personal interests, or the disaffirmation of modernism, not even the development of the society. Its all about manthe reason why people call themselves human beings. When colonialism was replaced by democracy, we call it progress, for the meaning of freedom, equality and humanity was realized and therefore fulfilled.Now the same acknowledgment is needed to fulfill them, so that the human race progresses rather than goes backwards. hardly a(prenominal) people are powerful enough to switch over slavery directly. However, as long as the seriousness of modern slavery is kept in mind and spread the information, just as Lisa Kristine did with her camera and microphone, attention will be aroused, the evil side will be pressured, and those with the power to change the situation directly will be pushed.
