5:20 pm
mother. they broke my arm when i gave her sister a massage because they said i didn't do it properly. so they grabbed me from behind and pushed down until it broke. i will tell you stories of maid abuse in myanmar are not uncommon. thousands of children from poor villages are routinely sent to me in mars, booming cities to support their families. as the economy develops, there is growing demand for domestic servants and middle class households and helpers for home run businesses. first and foremost, that parents or caregivers are not aware of those risks all where on the right to either myself, the children, i tundra joe works for the child protection program at save the children myanmar. she says that despite the risks, herbs continue to send their young children away, parents think it's free, bought, and as well as that,
5:21 pm
then their salary use the net. at the same time, the child will have a better chance of life schooling as well. so those and leaves or assumptions push their parents to send their children to our domestic satisfactory, i think, but after they arrive at the employer's house, many of these children are cut off from their families and exposed to miss treatment. one former domestic worker who wanted to remain anonymous, agreed to share her story with us. oh, i was living in the countryside and some people came for a donation ceremony saw me and took me back with telling my mail was on there. they said they were adopting me and took me away from my father another for the 1st couple of months. they were nice to me yet, but then they started to hit me when things didn't go their way. i knew that. so i asked her nicely if i could go home because i was unhappy, nippy, and she said,

5:23 pm
there is no state legislation for adoption. formal adoption is covered only by the buddhist customary law, which means any registered adoption must be between buddhists. lampa in me and mar custom renewal adoption comes with inheritance rights under the kit emma adoption axis had actually. adoptive parents must give inheritance rights to their adopted child but a parted. her adoption doesn't include these rights that had the practice of a potato or casual adoption. though not technically legal is widely accepted. a child can be taken in by a family and cared for without any paperwork or official monitoring them, or on their my, in me and mar. there are people of all religions and fates who take care of a non related child at the homely, the apple with another kid, the because they feel sympathy for the child. what had i? there were no regulations, legislation or legal provisions for the circumstances about. there is also no
5:24 pm
specific law to protect domestic workers. many children who are hired to live and work in households far away from home, fall completely under the control of their new family. is almost like the employers on your life. of course, some would say that you dizzy, many terrence the intervention that i can do to the poor, low family. but in some they would also see it. it is, is an opportunities to take advantage over the poor family where they're completely depends on me to hire them. and i can offer them even live in money. they are happy already because they start from 0 didn't have money, right. the bad case started to come to the surface now where employers take for granted that you, you work from me and i help you and perhaps i oh, i own your life. not that i thing it is my right to punish you,

5:27 pm
a commission set up to protect people's rights would tolerate such abuse caused an uproar sway. when had shown a spotlight on a widely accepted practice and a major flaw in the system. the story went viral. the girls were taken to hospital for treatment, and a criminal case was fired. ah, the public were incense faced with huge public pressure. the human rights commission held a press conference and young gone. crazy molina did you move, and kind of all 10 of her fingers were broken. knowledgeable, why did you accept the situation any such and ignore the law for these 2 human beings who have suffered so much? only near the i d, i. e, on the song of any about o, d need our muma nocka media. why did you accept this negotiation? a company on it anyway? i'm on the wall. bob. i don't,
5:28 pm
i don't have to answer that. we didn't specify how much should be paid for the negotiation with them. i don't believe have that in your life. we gave them 2 choices. one either goes through the justice system or accept compensation for their suffering mit. that was the option they chose 9 if we didn't tell them to choose one or the other retake will love the love with of always in the press conference further, inflamed public opinion, bringing national attention to the issue. a parliamentary investigation was commission and for the commissions members were forced to resign. this case at highlighted widespread tolerance of the mistreatment of underage domestic workers. tundra georgia says that often people in the community, no abuse is happening, but they don't speak up in yet. my people say believe that there's like
5:29 pm
a punishment on btr slapping. if nothing wrong in our soul escapes and happen, people usually don't want to go to the police station and report the case. in ocala are tailoring cases. it has been going on 5 years, the torturing of children to that degree, and nobody has come forward in may 2012 with a 15 year old domestic gilbert, a you on, escaped from the house of a judge in the by going region or employer the judges, wife had allegedly tortured her with the hot iron. a you august mother filed a case, but the family was too poor to hire a lawyer or attend court. oh, the police didn't take further action from the perpetrator. never faced trial. i because but betrayed her. it's web connect it. oh or, and i, while the influential sol, usually the victims are from lying poor and vague wrong. and if you are going
5:30 pm
through life prosecution process, who's going to support the child and the family, the victims family who are very poor people who have housemaids are often from rich and powerful families. and the maids relatives are sometimes intimidated into dropping charges, policing me and mar, rarely try a case without a plaintiff. this means that it is often left to the families who are too poor or too intimidated to go to trial. many cases like these don't even make it to court. when you leave in the society where it is no rows of law, anything can get you into trouble. so the best you can do is to mitigate or liske by just my being mindful of your own business and not your neighbors business. you never know. and next door neighbor, we use sor, abusing somebody to have usa friends of somebody big. however,
5:31 pm
social media is changing the way people react to abuse in society. in november, 2015, a photo emerged on facebook. a young girl tied up naked outside a house in an affluent neighborhood in young gong. a driver working for the family next door had taken the photo. oh, but she missed one. i was hearing these screams every morning. the child was crying out in pain. i don't even know. i know i looked over the wall and saw something that made me so angry. the child had no clothes on shore, stripped naked, and they were beating her viciously. the girl took me that night, my blood boil. i couldn't stay out of it any more. so i took a photo of it and reported it to the police. i won't, i will. yeah. you yes, yes, anthony appearing yet while the driver had listened to the sound of the 9 year old

5:34 pm
the agreement says that 1000000 kiara at 800 g u. s. dollars has been given as an act of generosity. now it also specifies that they must not make contact with the child again or ask for more money. so it's obvious that the child was sold for 1000000 kiosk that they say they may alpha i as in a sample it is common and not illegal to create private contracts for the guardianship of a child. under myanmar law, the contract only becomes illegal when there is money involved. a legal way, it's a contract. it states that you paid for a child is automatically invalid. you can't buy a child by buying and selling children violate to the onset human trafficking. know the older maid who had been allegedly abusing the girl was arrested, charged with child abuse and sentenced to 2 years in prison. the military officer who had bought the girl was removed as a member of parliament and discharged from the military. however,
5:35 pm
no criminal charges were filed against him or his family. but the aba case said a new precedent in me and mark media scrutiny and public pressure lead to the police filing charges on behalf of the victims. the case was moved to a higher court and human trafficking charges were brought by the trafficking police . i don't say not angle, the defendants in the are the tailor shop case pleaded innocent in court and to abuse of domestic workers. did i last at the any young a might as well. i buy that that have that charged under a section of the human trafficking act that carries the death penalty. eliana is on demand and then 2 on is a defense lawyer and the other tailoring family case that is she thinks the defendants are being unfairly persecuted because of media pressure and because they are mostly innovative for them. man mar, as

like sending the kids to the other family you to walk as a housemate? come sometimes my husband's income is enough to survive on, but sometimes it's not. and it's very distressing. we have to borrow money. time j kinds mother knew a when says they were forced to send their daughter away because they needed the money. a woman from the village who had moved to work in young gone, came back to recruit, others fled. she told my daughter, it was a good job. so my daughter told me that she wanted to go because it was good money, but it would help our family on it. we got one month's salary in advance. on her 1st day that we were told, the pay was $15000.00 key art which about $11.00 loud that we only got about $7.00 . that day before 11 year old tessin and orphan who had been living with an elderly relative in the same village, went together with sanjay khan for over 3 of the 5 years the girl spent at the
5:39 pm
avo tailoring household. they were completely cut off from their families, and the families received no salary and the girls had no contact with any one from their village. but what i learned whenever we called, they always said they were away the lot. we told them to call us when they were back because we wanted her to come home doable. the girls families are illiterate and have little education or experience in dealing with the authorities. when they lost contact with the children, they didn't know what to do. then one day, the village head came to town noon. you'll when to go to young, gone to bring the children home unaware of what had happened. she went to get the diet. when i went there i saw something had happened to my daughter's fingers that she would then i saw those injuries when she took her shirt off today. and i said, how did you get those injuries? what happened?

5:43 pm
with laughter. no, we get orphans to you or me. don't want to lang it. yes, i can. i was an orphan. it's. there's no charge for the arrangement. you just make a donation. when the girl doesn't keep her pay, it gets donated to the orphanage, for example. it can be better that way. levels of yellow dog e n v is the head, none at this nunnery school and orphanage? oh, there are 180 young nuns as well as another 80 other children living here. orphan's children feeding the civil war or those whose parents are unable to care for them to lavon. and even though it is not perfect, like a normal family, at least they can eat, they can study and live safely. only this is what we can provide. at least i feel that their lives are safer here and they agree with that there bucklin. but none
5:44 pm
reason monasteries are also a common place for people to look for young children. they say they will adopt, but end up treating as unpaid domestic workers. door a thing, he says they often get such requests, but they don't let the children go. hello, our lobby are down. there have been people including a police officer who have requested to adopt children with a contract that and, and we were but because of our love for them and concern about what would happen to them, we don't allow them to be adopted. and we keep the children here, i don't if we did allow people to adopt, it's possible they could give better support because they're only looking after one child. but we don't feel it safe for. so we don't allow them to be adopted. ah and me and mar. many of those who do adopt young girls see themselves as doing something generous. ah ha ha ha tay runs

but his unsure if they will be allowed to keeping her there is safer, but i want to go back to living with my child again. they will say we created the situation, but we sent them there because we are poor. we had no choice and hulu, the trip to young gone is unsettling, and the women are very nervous. yellow. i don't want to be in young gone. and you know, we're afraid, i don't know. what are you afraid of going to the court police station that we don't understand things. they ask lots of questions that we don't know how to answer better solution. some rural places. people don't want to go to the course at all. they're afraid to go in the black, him when it's the result of an old system. yet to maria d, a petty barnett loon for both the sinners. sanky fine. they were quite overwhelming. and they were very sad. even the sin cry,
