Woman arrested for allegedly kidnapping 2-year-old in Vietnam

Police have made the urgent arrest of a woman in north-central Vietnam to investigate the alleged kidnapping of a two-year-old boy

By Tuoi Tre News July 30,2017, 16:00 GMT+7

Dao Thi Danh, 48, was captured by Can Loc District police officers in Ha Tinh Province on Saturday after she was found in the company of a missing boy.

According to the local administration, two-year-old Luong Khac Thanh was dropped off at his father’s house in Can Loc District by his mother on the day.

At 9:00 am, Danh, who is the father’s acquaintance, came by for a visit. Minutes later, she took Thanh away to another house in the neighborhood.

As Thanh’s mother, Than Thi Gia, returned to pick him up only to find an empty house, she cried for help and initiated a search that was joined by other neighbors.

At around 10:00 am the same day, locals found Thanh at a house in the neighborhood in the company of Danh.

Suspecting the woman to be a kidnapper, hundreds of locals surrounded the house to prevent Danh from escaping.

Police officers arrived moments later to maintain order and disperse the hysterical mob.

At 4:45 pm, Can Loc police issued an order for the urgent arrest of Dao Thi Danh for an investigation into her alleged child kidnapping.

Dark picture of child sex abuse in Vietnam

More than 8,100 children have fallen victim to sex abuse during the five-year period ending 2016

By Tuoi Tre News July 29,2017, 12:57 GMT+7

A conference on Friday painted a dark picture of child molestation in Vietnam, with the number of sexually abused children constantly increasing over the years while offenders are often the victims’ family members or close relatives.

More than 8,100 children have fallen victim to sex abuse during the five-year period ending 2016, according to statistics provided by the Ministry of Public Security at the conference on preventing child molestation in Ho Chi Minh City.

Speaking at the conference, many delegates did not fully agree with the given number of victims, believing that the figure is inaccurate due to several reasons.

Attendees explained that the first reason is that having a child who was sexually abused in the family is still considered a taboo by many older generations, so they tend not to report the case to the police and often deal with the offender privately.

The second reason is, according to delegates, many families dare not to sue the offenders as they are threatened or fear of not having sufficient evidence.

Many families falling victims to child molestation were invited to speak at Friday’s conference, but only one man summoned enough courage to come forward to share his story.

Coming from the southern Soc Trang Province, the father of a seven-year-old girl who was sexually abused by a close neighbor could not hold his tears while recollecting the tragedy of his daughter.

“My family is poor, so my wife and I have to work all day, leaving our little girl at home. We were devastated when knowing what happened to her,” the father said.

“I hope that authorities can exact appropriate punishment on the offenders and protect children from being victims of sex abuse like my daughter.”

Close relatives or known acquaintance are offenders

According to the police’s statistics, the number of children falling victim to child sex abuse is on an increase trend and the age of the victims is also getting younger, compared to those of previous years. Some victims are even under six, and there were some serious cases in which the young victims got killed by the offenders afterwards.

A majority of child molestation cases happened in remote and rural areas, according to the conference.

Statistics taken from 2014 to 2016 show that there is an increasing number of child sex abuse happening in 15 provinces in southern Vietnam, including Ho Chi Minh City, with more than 1,000 victims.

During the first six months of this year, there were 805 cases of child sex abuse with 710 victims.

Of those 805 cases, 32 were in Hanoi, 29 in Ho Chi Minh City, 31 in Tay Ninh Province, 27 in Dong Nai Province, 30 in Kien Giang Province, indicating that the problem of child sex abuse occurs both in rural areas and big cities.

The statistics given at the conference indicated that two third of the offenders are close relatives or acquaintances of the victims.

“Most child sex offenders have close relationship with their victims such as teachers, relatives, or neighbors,” said Colonel Nguyen Huu Su, deputy director of the criminal police unit under the Ministry of Public Security.

According to Su, as most of the child sex offenders do not have any previous criminal records, it is hard to track them down until multiple abuses take place.

Some of the predators get to know their victims through the Internet. They will make friends with the children by giving them presents or money, and sexually abuse them when the chance arises.

Many offenders seek naïve teenager girls in rural areas, sexually harass them, and later sell them to brothels.

Advice from experts

Many delegates advised parents to be cautious when their children receive gifts, money, or items such as cell phones from strangers.

Nguyen Thi Le Quyen, a representative from the Women Association in Phuoc Hung Ward, in Ba Ria City, in the southern Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province, said that parents should also play an important role in educating their children on how to protect themselves.

Children should be taught to know their sensitive or private parts on their bodies and not to let strangers touch those areas.

Parents should also tell their children not to make contact with strangers without their knowledge or presence.

Other advice includes instructing children how to shout for help, run to public places, or get away from the attackers.

Parents are advised to befriend their children and teach them how to openly and regularly share their feelings, experience, and emotions with them.

By doing so, parents get to know the world around their children and can prevent any misfortunate incident of sex abuse happening to their loved ones.

]Saigon restarts plan to adjust school, office hours to fight gridlock

8 million private vehicles are now choking the city's streets, and desperate times call for desperate measures.

Saigon is revisiting a plan to change school and office hours in an attempt to stagger the amount of traffic hitting the city's streets during rush hours.

At a meeting with Mayor Nguyen Thanh Phong on Monday, local residents complained that the city has spent a lot of time and money on improving traffic infrastructure, but chronic gridlock persists.

They said the city's population has climbed to 13 million, but upgrades to traffic infrastructure have not kept pace with growing transport pressure, local media reported.

In response, Phong said the city hall would revert back to the original plan of adjusting school and office hours, adding it would look at proposals from district-level authorities before coming up with a final solution.

In May, the city assigned several agencies to develop a plan to be submitted before July 30.

The city’s transport department first mooted the idea in 2001 and returned to it in 2007 and 2009, but it never got off the ground.

Last year, the department put the plan forward again. Its details have remained unclear.

Authorities are pushing ahead with two metro lines and a bus rapid transit (BRT) project along with new bus terminals in outlying areas in an attempt to reduce traffic jams.

They are also looking at ways to cut private vehicles from downtown areas as another way of easing congestion, Bui Xuan Cuong, the director of the city’s transport department, said in April.

As of April 15, the city has around eight million private vehicles, an increase of 5.8 percent against the same period last year, including 642,000 private automobiles and more than 7.3 million motorbikes.

Research conducted by Associate Professor Pham Xuan Mai from the Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology released in March last year found that traffic congestion costs the southern metropolis more than VND18.3 trillion ($820 million) every year.

The 10 Most Beautiful Towns In Vietnam

Vietnam immediately captivates travelers with its rich heritage and striking natural beauty. Bordered by mountains and the South China Sea on the west, with the deltas of the Red River and the Mekong set towards the country’s north and south ends, Vietnam’s diverse landscape encompasses white-sand beaches, enchanting rice paddies, and lush jungles. Here are some of the most beautiful towns you need to see in this fascinating country.

Hoi An

Hoi An is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Vietnam’s most important tourist destinations. With wonderful cuisine, intriguing history, and irresistible charm, Hoi An best matches many travelers’ ideal visions of Vietnam. A major port between the 16th and 18th centuries, the town owes its beauty to a unique combination of Chinese, Japanese, and European influences. Small enough to explore on foot, Hoi An’s lantern-lit streets are dotted with Chinese temples, lively food markets, and wooden-fronted shophouses. Galleries selling local artwork and laid-back open-air cafes add a charming, bohemian element.
