Abstract

Trafficking in persons, involving modern slavery, sexual exploitation, forced labor, and organ trafficking, is a global issue in Indonesia, particularly in border areas like Sumatra and Kalimantan. Mail-order brides, promised marriages, are exploited, despite local village officials' disregard. This research aims to identify and examine the trafficking in persons still occurs between the women of Singkawang, West Kalimantan, and Taiwanese men. This qualitative research uses a descriptive method to study mail-order bride trafficking in Singkawang, West Kalimantan, a region bordering Sarawak-East Malaysia. The study involves observation, focus group discussions, and data analysis, identifying themes and addressing issues such as poverty, low education, and deeply rooted local culture. Mail-order brides in Singkawang, are a growing global phenomenon where women migrate for better livelihoods. Victims often face sexual and labor exploitation in their home countries. Stakeholders must monitor marriage brokers to address this issue
