Many are wondering how those 34 women from China who were rescued recently by operatives of the National Bureau of Investigation Central Visayas ended up working at a high-end karaoke bar in Lapu-Lapu City. As it investigates the incident, the bureau is zeroing on the human trafficking angle considering the fact that the Chinese nationals who were used as high-class prostitutes were recruited as online gaming workers. Of course, the NBI should look into whether or not those behind the trafficking of foreign women have Filipino connections.
Lured by the booming online gaming in the Philippines that has been attracting thousands of South Koreans and other foreign nationals, these Chinese women were perhaps legally recruited in China to work in the country. The fact that they entered the country with valid documents for legal work but ended up as commercial sex workers in Lapu-Lapu City can only mean there are human trafficking syndicates behind the recruitment of some foreign workers.
Since these syndicates were able to operate under the noses of the authorities, there is a high chance they are being protected by some unscrupulous government officials, something that the NBI investigation should focus on.

Palusot nga nabuwasot. Nagsugod ang pagduma sa Pilipinas sa 30th Southeast Asian Games pinaagi sa palusot sa budget alang sa kalihokan nga karon maoy gibasol sa daghan nga uyamot nga mga buwasot bisan wa pa pormal nga ablihi. The tale of the Filipino crabs. Honestly, I really did not want to write anything about our hosting of the 30th Southeast Asian Games, except that the social media has been very busy putting even the most minute negative detail as its headline, The kingdom of heaven.
