Another Part of Trafficking
Another article that I read on trafficking talked about how the trafficking market in Thailand is more profitable than the drug market there. The trafficking market according to this article makes about twelve million dollars a year. Not sure how you feel about that but it's pretty astounding to me. This article talks about Thailand being a major hotspot for trafficking. It also says how people who are not legal citizens of Thailand have a much greater chance of being trafficked. The part of this article that stood out to me was the horrid statistic of seventy percent of eight hundred families have sold a daughter into prostitution. This really makes me wonder how bad the people of the country are struggling to sell their own children to make money.
