Absolutely disgusting.
People are sent over to aid, and they cause further destruction to lives.
I understand the point made in @corbettreport's article with regards not tarring everyone with the same brush, but who can you really trust? :(

Agreed, as someone who has worked with children in charities in developing nations, I particularly despise this crime against humanity. I don't even have the words to describe it.
I wish I had an answer to your question but I think we can only trust NGOs on a case by case basis, so many of them have been tarnished with this kind of behaviour and through corruption as well.
I was once approached by a friend of mine that wanted to use the charity i was working for for smuggling, that conversation ended pretty quickly. Some people are just opportunistic, trying to leverage everything they can to get ahead.
Case by case for sure, but then who's doing the judging and how far up the ladder do we need to go to flush out these people.
Frustrating and saddening.
hmm, this reminds me of somewhere close to my keyboard :)
Ha!
