The Committee met, pursuant to call, at 1:47 p.m. In Room 2172, Rayburn House Office Building, Hon. Henry J. Hyde (Chairman of the Committee) presiding. Chairman HYDE. The Committee will come to order. I am pleased to convene this hearing, which is the second in a series of hearings being held by the House Committee on Inter- national Relations on implementation of the Smith-Gejdenson Traf- ficking Victims Protection Act of 2000. The Smith-Gejdenson Act provides a comprehensive plan for put- ting an end to modern-day slavery. A key component of this plan is the State Department’s annual Trafficking in Persons Report. This report is intended to inform the President and the Congress about which foreign governments are making serious efforts to combat the most egregious forms of trafficking in persons—the buy- ing and selling of women and children into the international sex in- dustry, and the trafficking of men, women, and children alike into slavery and involuntary servitude—and which governments are failing to make such efforts. At today’s hearing, the Committee will hear testimony on the State Department’s second annual Trafficking in Persons Report. This year’s report is particularly important because it is intended to serve as a final ‘‘wakeup call’’ to governments which are doing little or nothing to combat human trafficking. This is because the Trafficking Victims Protection Act contemplates that the United States will withdraw non-humanitarian aid from governments which remain on the ‘‘Tier Three’’ list after the next year’s report. The ‘‘Tier Three’’ governments are those that not only fail to meet minimum international standards for combating human trafficking, but who are not even making serious efforts to bring themselves into compliance with these standards. In addition to providing an overview of the state of the war against human trafficking and the general assessment of the Traf- ficking in Persons Report, I hope our witnesses will address one question in particular. The Trafficking Victims Protection Act places particular emphasis on the need to take action against gov- (1) VerDate May 01 2002 12:14 Sep 17, 2002 Jkt 080288 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 F:\WORK\FULL\061902\80288 HINTREL1 PsN: SHIRL 2 ernments that not only tolerate human trafficking but

Many forms of modern slavery thrive in countries all across the globe. The sex trafficking trade has intensified despite the advocacy of many human rights-based groups. Southeast Asia ranks very high in terms of the source, transit, and destination of sex trafficking. In particular, human trafficking of women and girls for the purpose of forced prostitution remains an increasing problem in Cambodia. Cambodia’s cultural traditions and the breakdown of law under the Khmer Rouge and Democratic Kampuchea have contributed to the current governing policies which maintain democracy only at the surface level of administration.

Specifically, the human trafficking is a security studies concern because it is not only a social issue, but also a security threat. Just as with drug trafficking, human trafficking has security consequences. The study analyzed human trafficking issues in the following three countries in Southeast Asia: Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. These three countries were chosen due to the high levels of human trafficking. In each of the chosen cases, there is an examination of human trafficking issues in terms of political structures, political policies, economy, and international aid.
