Asia's Police To Tackle Sex Trade

[sunholidaysun1]

It is a very easy to get a Thai girl to the USA if you yourself have your ducks in a row. Mine got a 10 year tourists visa on her first try. She can stay 6 months at a time at her own leisure (22 years old).. We are similar in ages and I am sure the US Embassy appreciated the fact that I have paid more than 3m+ baht a year in tax since 2004.

Now, if you apply and you have not filed a tax return in five years and your wife is much younger than yourself and you come dressed sloppily...

Why do my 'Ducks' have to be in a row, quack quack

This is really bad news for Thailand's Commerce Minister Pornthiva Nakasai, owner of Poseidon, one of the biggest whore house in Ratchada, if not the biggest in the whole of Thailand.

The topic is about the human trafficking aspect and not massage parlors where young girls go voluntarily to work.

Have you ever asked the girls in Poseidon if they volunteered, for force into the trade, by they parrents / village heads / local drug lords / money lenders, etc?

I HAVE asked them. Some of them are there to serve high interest debt, some taken by their own parrents.

Did you ask before or after you tried to haggle down the price?

You're reaching a new low !

You're reaching a new low !

Shouldnt you have said : Did you reach a new low Price

good. this is a really sickening aspect of human nature.

I agree.

However, when will this problem tackled at origin, and not at the end.

Same as with child porn, the downloaders of this filth are hunted, while the producers and uploaders seem to remain at large.

Same as with drugs, the users are hunted while the producers are kind of untouchable.

Of course, the police want to score, so they do by hunting down the end users, so to say.

But the origin stays in business and can can go on.

So sorry.

You're reaching a new low !

Give me more time and I'll be able to reach the low you inhabit.

Ok guys, let's all just chill out. I think we're all on the same side of this issue (some are just more cynical than others and/or disagree about its solution). No need to turn on each other.

good. this is a really sickening aspect of human nature.

Sex trafficking is not human nature. I would think 99.9% of people would agree at's abhorent. It's carried on by a few greedy and ruthless people. Greed...now that's a different story.

Asia's Police to TACKLE sex trade Naked Rugby , I hope its televised .

[cpofc]

The BBC is reporting that "Police officials from across Asia have decided to form unprecedented joint operations to target the trafficking of sex slaves at a meeting in Australia'????

You'd think they could find a better place to engage in the trafficking of sex slaves than at a police meeting in Australia....

Perhaps it will be better for many attending nations to congregrate on 'neutral ground'.

Perhaps you underestimate the competence of Australian Law Enforcement and Immigration Control.

Perhaps you are unaware the Australian Authorites have a great deal of experience in dealing with the illegal sex trafficking in Asia.

Don't under estimate us. We have come a long way in our short time as country. A little over 100 years. How old is yours?

Have you ever asked the girls in Poseidon if they volunteered, for force into the trade, by they parrents / village heads / local drug lords / money lenders, etc?

I HAVE asked them. Some of them are there to serve high interest debt, some taken by their own parrents.

Nice to see you doing your part to knock down their debt load!

No. You sir, apparently do not understand that you are making conclusions based on your own self-referential criterion. His question was actually spot on!

Some girls work there to be able to afford a life style with designer clothes etc. that they otherwise could not afford. Some girls work there to pay off debt. Some girls work there to save for an education. Some girls work there to help their parents.

And so on - in reality there are a lot of different reasons. Just because you would not work there and just because you have a sterotypical impression of the topic does not mean that you are right.

Another issue (on the same note though...): Sex is tabu and should ot be sold or carried out without love or some form of marriage commitment.. yeah? This attitude is a result of our cultural values, not a 'set in stone' truth. For example, the eskimos have a long tradition of asking visitors to sleep with their wife the first night they visit the village. This is considered the polight thing to do. In other cultures it does not make sense that you can sell your brain (in many jobs you do this), your legs (for work), your arms, your toungue (in a post office for example), but you cannot sell your body to give someone even a handjob? It does make inherrent sense to us who have grown up being indoctrinated with these values. But do not for one second buy this as if it was a set in stone universal truth.

I don't agree with Samgrowth that often, but he is right here.

I know a lady, a mates wife, who likely is doing this because of loan sharks.

Even farangs don't always have the dosh to buy their ladies out of hock when things turned bad.

At the same time, there are those that do this by choice.

Whether this is a GOOD choice is often governed by cultural teachings.

If it is a free personal choice and not coerced, then it is up to them.

The worlds oldest profession is not that just by accident.

Women try and find one man for support them and children,

when they can't villages become a defacto man of the house.

But even that sometimes is not enough to keep body and soul together.

The state of marriage is so that mothers can tend children and still be fed.

In Thailand grandmothers take over much of the rearing work,

and the young adults go off to make money as best they can.

If they do things they normally might not,

they go make merit and wash away sins at Songkran.

I have known of two ladies who worked a year, got the roof on the house

and did a lot of Songkran merit making, retired and never looked back.

It is something difficult for the western mind to deal with

: closing a chapter and starting anew and cleansed.

Hello, I see slavery in this modern world as disgusting and as bad as kidnapping or murder if the victim takes their own life as they will not live that way. The people that control the slaves should get more prison time as they destroy the lives of too many humans, and it will be interesting to see the follow up to this story. Cheers.
