As the principal author of House Bill 4890, otherwise known as the Human Trafficking Preventive Education Act, Deputy Minority and Ako Bicol Party List Rep. Alfredo A. Garbin, Jr. led the press conference in observance of the National Awareness Week on the Prevention of Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation, which endeavors to create massive awareness among families and communities.
Together with Cong. Aniceto Bertiz, who has also championed equal rights for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWS), Rep. Garbin vehemently stood against the continued conduct of illegal trafficking in all forms, and that through HB 4890, such crime will be prevented by empowering the youth by making them aware of their rights that constitution has accorded them with.
