Herlina's family to visit Malaysia

SURABAYA: The family of Herlina Trisnawati, a migrant worker who
is now on death row in Malaysia, will visit the neighboring
country to give her moral support, a labor activist said on
Tuesday.

The visit is also aimed at persuading the Malaysian government
to give Herlina amnesty, said Ja'far Shodiq, the secretary-
general of Migrant Worker Alliance.

PT Jatim Sukses Karya Bersama, the manpower recruitment agency
that sent Herlina to Malaysia, will pay for the family's trip.

Herlina was convicted for murdering her employer Soon Lay
three years ago. -- JP
