Di Italia, Ada Ribuan Bocah Suriah Terdampar Sendirian

KIBLAT.NET, Roma – Lebih dari 9.000 anak-anak pengungsi dan imigran Suriah telah tiba di Italia dengan perahu sepanjang tahun ini. Mereka menempuh perjalanan panjang dan berisiko, menurut laporan organisasi perlindungan anak, ‘Save the Children’, pada hari Kamis, (19/06).
Dalam laporan organisasi tersebut yang diberi judul “Dari Suriah ke Eropa, Melarikan Diri dari Perang” dikatakan bahwa lebih dari 58.000 orang  telah melalui perjalanan yangberbahaya dari pantai Afrika Utara di Mediterania. Sebanyak 3.160 anak-anak bepergian sendirian tanpa ada orang tua yang menemani.
Sebagian besar anak-anak itu, banyak di antaranya berusia di bawah lima tahun adalah warga Suriah. Sebagian besar mendarat di Italia setelah melintasi perjalanan panjang dan berbahaya melalui Libya, di mana mereka telah mengalami sejumlah tindakan “penganiayaan, pencurian dan ancaman kekerasan.”
Sebagian besar keluarga Suriah yang tiba di Itali adalah kelompok kelas menengah, pengusaha, pemilik toko, dan petani yang “melarikan diri Suriah satu atau dua tahun yang lalu melalui perjalanan berbiaya tinggi. Kebanyakan di antara mereka melewati Lebanon dan Mesir, di mana banyak menghabiskan waktu selama berbulan-bulan “dalam kondisi sulit”.
“Di Libya kita dianiaya, mereka mengatakan kepada kita untuk pergi … maka kami memutuskan untuk pergi, mati di laut adalah lebih baik daripada kita tetap tinggal di sana,” ujar Nadia, bocah perempuan berusia 15 tahun yang berasal dari Homs.
Pada awal Juni, organisasi ‘Save The Children’ mengatakan hanya sekitar sepertiga dari anak-anak tersebut yang terdaftar pada saat kedatangan di Italia. Mereka kemudian menjauhkan diri dari radar, dan lembaga amal Italia telah memperingatkan bahwa mereka mungkin berada dalam risiko jatuh ke dalam cengkeraman kelompok kejahatan terorganisir atau pedagang organ manusia.
Vittorio Piscitelli, komisaris Italia untuk orang hilang, pada bulan April mengatakan, anak-anak yang hilang “bisa berakhir di tangan pedagang manusia, atau kelompok pedofil. Dan kita tidak bisa mengabaikan praktik keji perdagangan organ.”
Sementara itu, Direktur Program Save the Children di Italia, Raffaele Milano mengatakan “solusi harus ditemukan sesegera mungkin untuk menghindari anak-anak meninggalkan pusat penerimaan pengungsi, menjadi ‘tak terlihat’ dan membuka diri untuk mengalami risiko eksploitasi atau kekerasan”.
Menteri Dalam Negeri Italia Angelino Alfano memperkirakan jumlah anak-anak Suriah yang tak terdaftar di antara 400.000 hingga 600.000 orang.

Korean Food Guide: 44 Things to Eat in Seoul, South Korea and Where to Try Them

Before our trips to Korea, my knowledge of Korean food was pretty much limited to  kimchi ,  bulgogi , and  japchae . My exposure to the cuisine never really went beyond that in spite of having several Korean friends, including a Korean roommate for a couple of years. I think part of it is due to how damn good Korean barbecue is. It’s so delicious that it was pretty much all I ever looked for when eating at Korean restaurants. Bulgogi for my main course, and a plate of japchae on the side. That was it. But thanks to our two trips to Seoul, in 2015 and 2017, my Korean food vocabulary has expanded to over 40 dishes. As delicious and universally appealing as Korean barbecue is, I’ve learned that there’s so much more to the cuisine than just bulgogi and  galbi . Things like  ganjang gejang ,  jokbal , and  naengmyeon aren’t as well known outside of Korea but they are dishes well worth flying for. Ganjang gejang was particularly memorable. After waiting two years to try it, you’d think

Last year, American Live Wire released our list of the Most Dangerous Cities in the World for 2013 based on murders per capita. Latin America stole the show taking all top 10 spots, which got us thinking – maybe we should take a couple other factors into consideration this time. In no particular order, the Top 10 Most Dangerous Cities in the World 2014, based on violent crime rates, political turmoil and economic potential – or lack thereof.   1   Aleppo, Syria     A city under siege.

After three years of food and fuel shortages, Syria has become unlivable. Since the new year, attacks continue to escalate killing citizens by the hundreds. Power and water is cut, trash piles up spreading disease. Over 100,000 civilians have fled the front lines of a genocidal regime, even risking a fe
