Pope
Remembers Exploited Children in Both Poor and
Rich Countries
March
25, Vatican City
The
Holy Father in a special word of encouragement
for the participants of the Global March Against
Child Labour expressed the hope that, "this
March would contribute to creating a greater
awareness of this problem, so that adults may
not be deprived of rightful employment, and
children not be deprived of invaluable years
of growth".
An
EFE (Spanish wire service) report published
today (March 25th, 1998) with a Vatican City
dateline entitled, "Pope remembers exploited
children in both poor and rich countries" it
states:
"El
Papa denounced the margination of physically
handicapped children; unscrupulous contractors
who exploit child labour where children enter
economic circles at a very early age and where
the children's "house" is the street or social
centers; who are victims of pornography, prostitution,
or clandestine organ transplants and other types
of "horrible exploitation"."
