PETALING JAYA: Concerns over the rise of human trafficking cases have prompted a youth group calling themselves “Change Your World” to launch a campaign to create greater awareness among Malaysians on the plight of trafficked victims.

The three-month campaign started last Saturday called #BeMyProtector, aims to curb human trafficking and target youths to explore important issues, thus empowering them to act on such cases.
