第 349 课:强行劳动-3

Four years ago, the labor agency estimated that more than twelve million people were in some form of forced labor. 四年前, 国际劳工组织曾预计,受各种强制劳动的约有二千多万人。

About two and a half million cases were the result of trafficking. 约二百五十万个案都是 贩卖人口 的产物。

The earlier report estimated profits from trafficking alone at more than thirty billion dollars a year. 早期的报告预计,仅 贩卖人口 一项,年利润就超过三百亿美元。

It said criminals earned all but four billion of that from the sex trade. 报告称,犯罪收入中几乎有四十亿来自性交易。

Experts say Asia has three-fourths of all forced laborers. A million are in Latin America and the Caribbean. 专家称,所有强制劳工中亚洲占四分之三,拉丁美洲和加勒比海有一百万。
