It's a major issue that virtually nobody in the western world wants to tackle effectively. As A.S. mentioned, it requires work to improve conditions and employment within their home country. It's far, far easier for the west to sail a few warships around the area, wave the flag and look like they're "solving" the problem.
Nothing will change until conditions on land improve and law and order becomes more than just a couple of dirty words.
