Beijing – MTV EXIT and Chinese star Han Geng have launched Human Traffic: China, a documentary aiming to raise awareness and help prevent human trafficking in China. The documentary will be hosted by Han Geng and is also available on MTV EXIT’s website.
In addition, MTV China’s popular nightly programme TLC will be premiering exclusive clips from the documentary from October 9-11. The 36-minute documentary is in Mandarin, with English subtitles, and is available rights-free and at no cost to broadcasters.
“MTV EXIT worked closely with anti-trafficking agencies across China to document the real stories of people affected by human trafficking,” said Matt Love, Director, MTV EXIT. “Our goal is to educate young people on this critical social issue, and encourage audiences to take action if they suspect human trafficking is happening in their communities.”
“Human trafficking and exploitation are happening all around us. That’s why I am proud to be a part of MTV EXIT’s Human Traffic: China. I call on my fans to watch this documentary and spread the word about human trafficking in China so we can help protect our friends, families and communities from falling into the trap. Together, we can end it,” said Han Geng.
Human Traffic: China was produced with on-the-ground support from the China Ministry of Public Security and the United Nations Inter Agency Project on Human Trafficking. The documentary was produced in partnership with the United States Agency for International Development, the Australian Agency for International Development, Walk Free and ASEAN.
Han Geng was named Most Popular Mainland Male Singer at the CCTV MTV Mandarin Music Honours in 2012, was Top Worldwide Act at last year’s MTV European Music Awards, and Favourite Asian Act at Nickelodeon’s 26th Annual Kids’ Choice Awards in 2013.
