But then again, in 2nd and 3rd world countries it mostly happens because economical needs. Its an unending cycle. Abraham Maslow's "hierarchy of needs" prioritizing deficit needs (the physiological demands of satisfying hunger and thirst) then security needs (shelter and stability), and finally being needs (the sense of belonging, love respect and recognition). The latter i believe has a long way to evolve if the first two are not fulfilled/complete. Preventative measures need to be taken not only by such loud organizations as Amnesty International or Human Rights Watch, they first of all need to be recognized by the victims themselves and addressed in a collective matter -spread awareness.

Most of them are right now thinking, "How am I going to make some money today?". They completely lost their intuition of right and wrong.

Only when poeple will have sympathy for each other can we overcome this... Human rights violations are a very sad topic and it happens everywhere, not only in Turkmenistan.
