bigt3116 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 3 hours ago, AdamRich said: That is because most people do not understand the definition of human trafficking. It is not saying the person is doing something against their will. It merely means the facilitation of a person from one place to another for the purpose of paid sex. So if the manager paid for a ticket from Isaan to Pattaya for a girl to work at the bar then that is human trafficking. If you paid a bar girl from Pattaya to go on holiday to Krabi with you, then that is also human trafficking. "Human trafficking, also known as trafficking in persons, is a crime that involves compelling or coercing a person to provide labor or services, or to engage in commercial sex acts. The coercion can be subtle or overt, physical or psychological." Not just sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you paid a bar girl from Pattaya to go on holiday to Krabi with you, then that is also human trafficking. The term in Thai law is pretty well defined: (italics added)Section 6. Whoever, for the purpose of exploitation, commits any of the following acts: (1) procuring, buying, selling, vending, bringing from or sending to, detaining or confining, harbouring, or receipt of any person, by means of threat or use of force, abduction, fraud, deception, abuse of power, or giving money or benefits to a guardian or caretaker of the person to achieve the consent of the guardian or caretaker of such person to allow the offender to exploit the person under his or her control; or (2) procuring, buying, selling, vending, bringing from or sending to, detaining or confining, harbouring, or receipt of a child; shall be guilty of human trafficking. Merely giving a bus ticket or taking a paid person on a holiday would not fall within this definition. http://web.krisdika.go.th/data/outsitedata/outsite21/file/ANTI_HUMAN_TRAFFICKING_ACT,B.E._2551_(2008).pdf 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennw Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 3 hours ago, spermwhale said: More like they came on their own accord to make money again like many other rural girls. I have not met a single bar girl who is an indentured servant and is not there of her own free will. Plust they were all above 18 and no drugs were found. Interesting that they singled this bar out though, considering that every other bar has the same types of girls, young and who came from upcountry. BUTif the cops really tried to dig deeper they would surely find really illegal operations where minors are held. Someone posted above that perhaps they didn't bribe the boys in brown, which sounds about right. Probably negotiations about the amount broke down.
