The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government issued a document to criticize that the US State Department's 2024 US trafficking population report involved Hong Kong's statement involving false statements.

The Hong Kong Government issued a newsletter in the early morning of Tuesday (June 25) to make the above criticism.

A spokesman for the Hong Kong Government said in the bulletin: "We strongly dissatisfied and resolutely opposed the report on the situation in Hong Kong in the report that has no facts and wrong comments.There are no signs that the criminal group uses Hong Kong as a destination or transit station for the trafficking population.Support. "

The spokesman emphasized that the Hong Kong Government has been actively and comprehensively cracking down on the population activities, and has invested a lot of resources in cracking down on the traffic trafficking population and strengthening the protection of foreign families (foreign helpers) in Hong Kong.As a member of the international community, the Hong Kong government will continue to firmly crack down on the trafficking population.

The spokesman said that the Hong Kong government continued to spare no effort to contact all relevant departments in 2023 and is more likely to involve the risk of trafficking, including illegal entryrs, sex workers, illegal workers, foreign helpers, inputs, inputsLabor and other suspected victims conduct preliminary identification and review.

A spokesman said that the Hong Kong Government conducted about 11,000 preliminary identification review in 2023, an increase of 45%from 2022.With the intensity of strengthening population trafficking and increasing the number of preliminary identification reviews, only three victims were identified. It can be seen that the traffic population is not a common problem in Hong Kong.Because of the small number of victims, the number of recognized victims has questioned Hong Kong's determination to crack down on the traffic trafficking population and the quality of identification and review.
