WASHINGTON (Politically Illustrated) – A recent report by Crosswalk.com, describes bride trafficking in North Korea as bondage as it becomes the fastest growing industry in the world.
“She was raised with the idea that you have one lasting marriage – never did she imagine that she would be married three times by the age of 30, and treated like an animal,” Young-Ae Kim told her story at the National Press Club, who is a North Korean defector.
Young-Ae Kim along with Mi-Sun Bang starved in North Korea, left to dally in China offering fantastic pleasure to men until they fled back home to be tortured for leaving, according to Mark Lagon, who is the former U.S. ambassador of trafficking, also reported by Crosswalk.com.
“The birth of a girl has never been a cause for celebration in China,” wrote Tom Hilditch, who is a researcher on woman’s issues in China, “and stories of peasant farmers drowning new born girls in buckets of water have been commonplace for centuries. Now, however, as a direct result of the one-child policy, the number of baby girls being abandoned, aborted, or dumped on orphanage steps is unprecedented”.
