Sex traffickers prey on children in Cambodia - TVE 2001
- 7 years ago
Cambodia - Sex trafficking of women and girls all ages is fuelled by mass poverty and lack of work.
Thirty years of war left Cambodia ravaged and poverty-stricken.
Since the end of the brutal Khmer Rouge rule, poverty, corruption and global tourism have all made it particularly vulnerable to the child labour industry. Children are trafficked into cities from rural areas to become sex slaves or sex workers, or trafficked out to comparatively wealthy Thailand to work in Bangkok as beggars, domestic workers, or labourers on construction sites.
