Government Action Plans

Action Plan Overview

There is no official Action Plan in Hong Kong to combat trafficking. In a government press release of June 12, 2003 in response to the United States Trafficking in Persons Report, the Hong Kong government spokesman announced that,

“Hong Kong is not a destination for human trafficking. Nor is it a place of origin for exporting illegal migrants. We disagree that Hong Kong is a point of transit and destination for persons trafficked for sexual exploitation and forced labor. But we will continue to be vigilant and work closely with the relevant authorities to prevent such activities.”¹
