WEAKNESS WILL DIE
STRONGEST WILL SURVIVE

6.8 ITS ABOUT 1/3 OF EACH ( LAO/VIET/CHIN)

35 YRS ALREADY PAST

Badlikeme, Technically, prostitution is illegal in Laos but sometimes there's insufficient proof that one is prostituting.

Selling drugs and stealing is also an easy way to earn money but it's a very serious charge and you can be proven guilty in a court of law. Prostitution is a lesser crime.

You can do all the training you like, but when it comes down to the nitty gritty it's scary to think of how much corruption there actually is.

The wealthy pimps pay the authorities to stay away from their business and their girls. When you have money, you're above the law.

There is prostitution in every country, and there will always be prostitution in Laos regardless of who is the top official.

Just because you and I don't approve prostitution, many ladies out there still enjoy the job and many men enjoy the company of a lady. Why should we remove something that we don't like, but others like?

I have no sympathy for prostitutes, but at the end of the day their career choice doesn't affect the way I live my life.

Oh! one more thing, the government knows prostitution is the quickiest way to improve the country's economy, of couse they can not openly support it, look at history:
Back at confussos time in China, the government runs brothols to boost the state's coffer.
Taiwan's official prostitution close their door just a few years ago.
In late 90's China crack down on prostitution in Shenzhen, most of the prostitute went back to their village, the result is massive withdrawal of funds from the bank, creata a localised recession, the government soon reverse the policy.
Prostitution is an intergral part of economy whether we like it or not, more so in modern days, it carried on from thousands of years, imagine Thailand without prosititution, how can their economy survive (I mean at present form of economy structure).

Government need to provide jobs and opportunity for Lao citizens. Better education and health care. Then there'll be less prostitution. But still not as bad as Thailand though. Thailand is well know for sex industry worldwide .

please tell me those are screen shots from a dramatized tv show or movie... and not an actual recording for forced prostitution. because that would be messed up
