Suara Mama Fin (The Voice of Mother Fin)

Are they still study at school, Mama?

Yes, they are. There is in Junior high school, Senior high school, even in University.

Even some of them still living with their parents.

all of this because of economic needs.

Sometimes also because of what their parents gave are not enough.

Such as if they look at their friends who have a new skirt, new phone

Those things also being the reasons.

Like "You have to accompany me to go to hotel"

"There is a guest, so you have to be there"

So if they're following, they also want to be like their friends who bring much money .

"She has much money, so I also can be like her", she said

Environment factor...

then there are broken home's children.

Children who have divorced parents and left them

a Mother left her children.

or a father who married again and left his children...

So there was no one who care with those children.

and finally, they (children with broken home) going through the ways.

Children who have a young age ...

usually, have a price around 500k rupiah.

If they have to stay one night, the price is 1 million (rupiah)

and they have a high mobilisation.

When the white ship was coming...

they also have gone with the ship, if the ship comes back, they also back.

they went to Serui, Manokwari, Biak, Sorong....

They came to bring one or two of their friends

from other city to come here.

Ma, your hair is standing.

- oh no..., I have to make up this hair first.
- Mama, don't forget to use lipstick too!

- Mama, just uses lipstick.
- What have to do? Have to take a shoot.

Give it to me, my book.

Ouch, don't take my bag in front of camera, its bad, just use lipstick.

ok, you all can go now. Then I will catch up.

don't shoot me, I'm not make up yet.

Who often buy for sex are from our people themselves, Papuan.

they are from civil servant, businessman, also from private sector.

is there is any government staff?

Yes, there is any government staff.

Exactly the government staff, if they come here...

they come by car...

they told the driver to look for the young girls.

because they love to do that with young girls in young age.

They don't want the "root", they want the "bine"

Most of the customers didn't use condom. They don't want.

The girls were bringing the condoms and we teach them about condom.

They knew about condom.

But when they went with them (customers) with a car and offers condom,

the customers denied it with drunk some alcohol.

"Yes, but you have to drink first" they said.

"We drink first then go to travel with car"

So that after the girls became drunk then they will not offer the condoms again.

Usually, they used condom, and after finished doing sex....

the customers don't want to pay, because they already told to used condom.

The Guest's reason was that a rubber met the body/flesh, not flesh met the flesh.

So pity they are, if they walking on the road...

also...

often get some any violence.

Like they hit up them.

when they (customers) made the girl being drunk and finished doing sex....

their handphone or their money was stolen by the customers.

or lied by the customers after finished doing sex.

"Be patience, baby. I have to go to ATM machine". Although they didn't, they just run away.

After coming back from hotel, usually there were guys who waiting for them.

then the girls will get an offer to buy the drinks, if the denied it, they will hit them.

There was a girl who got pregnant and aborted.

till died.

she took medicine and then got a massage.

massaged and stepped on his stomach

because of bleeding too much, then died.

We're as a extension staff....

this information often giving to the girls on the road.

We give advice till our tongue looks like a tie.

Yea, but they answered that this is economic needs.

Need food, need clothes.

Absolutely, they also get stigma from society.

They often said to them that still young but knew about sell themselves.

And more judgment else.

Sometimes there was a customer who brought them...

Although there was some customers in a time..

Forced off the condition, she has to serve all of them.

If she served them, she will get money, and if not...?

a customer said, "Let's go walking somewhere."

Then when they come back, they didn't have money anymore.

they have guest/customer...

if..

bring them to hotel, usually the customer....

they are three people, three of men and three of girl.

when their condition in a drunk...

then while drunk, there was one man who can sleep/sex with three girl.

also with the others man.

so, three of man/guys like one man sleep with three girls.

I always give advice to those girls.

If between three of these men had HIV or the friends of the girl also positive with HIV, ...

So that all of you will get HIV too.

Then I tell the government to don't use the horse glasses.

The government should be aware of the girls on those road.

Because those girls need attention from government to....

provide jobs.

Such as sweeper or floor cleaner.

or to provide a foundation that works to accompany the girls who work in the prostitute area.

the government should be paying attention. Don't wait for the people from outside who will give help.

such as making a program to prevent HIV/AIDS or sexually transmitted diseases.

for the prostitute girls on road...

Local Government should be paying attention about this too, they have to see...

Because of all this time happening, when the government knew those girls...

they transport them by car to the hotel.

most of them are the officials of government with the dark-glass car.

"girl, let's come in the car!"

what a pity, they are the next generation.

it is we who must pay attention to them (next generation).

If not us, who else who should work for our land?

If all people died because of HIV, how is next?
