After reading this article, I am really touched by what Susana did. She is willing to do anything to get her daughter, Marita, back. At first, she just wanted to find her daughter, but later, she helped a lot of girls who were forced into prostitution to get their freedom back. She put herself in great danger while saving many people and shedded light on the problem of human trafficking.
What surprised me was that Susana dressed up as a prostitute and would ventured in to bars and brothels alone in search for her daughter. She sold her houses, cars, and exhausted most of her savings which eventually led to her husband leaving her. She knew that she had to do alone without the help of the police and would usually hand out posters or asked people if they had any news about Marita. Susana faced her problems bravely even when she encountered three attempted hit-and-runs, receiving treatening messages. Other than finding her daughter, Susana also helped those girls who came to her for help and she will provide them with food and shelter. She also helped the country by persuading the country lobbying politicans to enact a law that would make human trafficking a federal crime.I think that she really fulfill the responsibilities of a mother and even that of a detective. This great mother has set a good example for us and I wish that everyone would be like her, not only cared about thier loved ones but also others. May she found her daughter as soon as possible.
When I knew that so many girls had been forced into prostitution in just one city alone, I felt pitiful for the girls who had to gone through such torture. The kidnappers are very selfish as they only cared about earning as much money as possible and getting the girls for free.
In Singapore, human trafficking is rare as the laws herer are strict and security is high. It makes me feel safe and lucky to be living in Singapore.
