Yesterday I read in the newspaper that ‘The Grey Man director Geoff McGlashan said the Brisbane-based charity wanted to recruit more supporters and volunteers in WA. He said the charity needed up to $250,000 a year to fund its operations across South-East Asia’…I would like to get involve and help raise money through various activities and events. Is there someone I could meet to have a chat with regarding this?
Cheers Sumei
]]>I read Somaly Mam’s book ‘The Road of Lost Innocence’ about her life of sex slavery as a child and teenager in Cambodian brothels, and her story made it clear that corruption in the Cambodian police force, politicians and others far up the hierarchy accept bribes and in fact WORK FOR the brothel owners.
Please be careful what police you trust. If you haven’t already read Somaly’s book (I’m sure those at The Grey Man have) you MUST read it. It’s HORRIFIC but necessary to know about if we’re to stop this evil trade.
The book also describes how it is common in Cambodia for girls as young as THREE YEARS OLD to be sold to brothels by their families, and “revirginised” up to 10 times…as in, sewn up.
This sick pure evil makes me so unspeakably infuriated and I’m about to donate to The Grey Man as I do to the Somaly Mam Foundation.
God bless the work that you do and I pray that The Grey Man rescues more and more children from what is surely the closest thing to living hell on earth.
