Comments on: In the Picture: The shocking truth about the sex trade with Dana Popa http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/in_the_picture_the_shocking_truth_about_the_sex_trade_with_dana_popa/ Championing Independent Journalism Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:04:54 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Flora Carmichael http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/in_the_picture_the_shocking_truth_about_the_sex_trade_with_dana_popa/#comment-138 Fri, 14 May 2010 14:51:02 +0000 http://www.beta.frontlineclub.com/dev/?p=956#comment-138 Dear Vitalie,
Thank you for your comment.
In the text above, it states that “up to 10%”, not “10% exactly”, of Moldovan women are sold into prostitution abroad. Nobody knows the true figures as this illegal trade goes on, by definition, in the shadow economy.
I admit that I Tweeted from the Frontline account making the false assertion that 10% of Moldovan women are sold into prostitution abroad and I now retract this statement and will delete this Tweet. The “up to 10%” claim was made in the press release for Dana’s project “not Natasha” written by Impressions Gallery and Autograph-ABP.
I do beg your pardon for any offense caused and hope you’ll be able to make it to the Club tonight to discuss this important issue.
Yours,
Flora Carmichael.

I wanted to draw your attention to the fact that the text you included on this page seems to be incorrect. Specifically, affirming that 10% of Moldovan female population is sold into prostitution abroad. This figure is probably based on the link provided by Wikipedia, found here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_trafficking#cite_note-73
However, the sources cited on Wikipedia site are not providing any proof of such figure. Claiming this figure is a sensitive matter for Moldovans, and I would suggest you research and speculate with such figures only based on reports from verified sources.
Thank you.
