Over 5000 Indonesian domestic workers rallied at police and government headquarters today, demanding justice for torture victim Erwiana Sulistyaningsih.

Dozens of locals and expats also took part. Hong Kong’s Trade Unionist movement, the League of Social Democrats, Socialist Action, Left21 and the Neighbourhood and Worker’s Service were amongst local groups joining the demonstration.

Protesters made the following demands…

1. Investigate Erwiana’s case and prosecute the employer

2. Revoke the agency’s license and punish the agency.

3. Make live out an option.

4. Abolish 2-week rule.

5. Regulate working hours.

The Justice for Erwiana Committee, together with the Mission For Migrant Workers (MFMW), is in touch with Erwiana. She, and her family, are under pressure from the Indonesian authorities, though she is keen to return to Hong Kong to seek justice. For this, she will need our support. You can donate directly to her via Mission for Migrant Workers below. The MFMW is receiving all donations in the Committee’s behalf.
