Indonesian Catholic, Muslim, and Protestant groups have pledged unity to fight against slavery and human trafficking in Indonesia’s maritime and fishing sector.
They signed a joint declaration recently to end slavery at the vice president’s office. The joint commitment is “our effort to show that we want to work together with the government to end the problem,” said Father Paulus Christian Siswantoko, executive secretary of the Indonesian bishops’ Commission for Justice, Peace and Pastoral for Migrant People.
