MANILA: Chang has no desire to go home to her parents, at least not yet. The 18-year-old Filipina has lived in a shelter since being rescued four years ago from a neighbour who forced her to perform sexual acts in front of a webcam for overseas predators.
“When I am ready to face them –to tell them that I am new and that I can handle myself – then I will go home,” said Chang, who is too ashamed to return home. Her abuser has been jailed.
