After Dung’s parents’ divorce when she was four years old, they abandoned her and her three siblings to be raised by her grandparents. Occasionally, they receive additional financial support from her aunt and uncle, but this stopped due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

I have a friend who was a trafficking victim. Previously, she worked in an unstable, low-paying job in an industrial zone near Ho Chi Minh City. Someone told her that if she went to China, she could get a more stable and better-paying job. She was young and naïve so when a friend introduced her to an opportunity, she took it. She was tricked and taken to Hainan Island, sold by the friend as a bride to a family. Her husband was deaf and disabled; he also had a mental illness and usually disappeared at night. Her mother-in-law treated her badly and often beat her.
