Now, I am doing my homework to prepare for my presentation on Friday. Our group needed to choose a topic related to South East Asia and we chose human trafficking as our research topic. Though we focused on prostitution, as I searched about the topic and knew what happened, I faced a shocking fact! That is, Japan is the major destination country for traffiked women and children! It's sad and ashamed of Japan, right? Many websites said women, esapecailly thai and philipina, were deceived like they could work and get good money in Japan. However, after they arrived in Japan, they were said like they had debt to boss or someone for some millions and had to repay by selling their bodies!
I don't know how to explain my feelings in English, but it's too sad...
Also, I remembered that a scene I saw in Bangkok, Thailand. When I was in a bar in Khaosan, I saw a little girl, wearing a super miniskirt aged at 10, dancing on a table for a man looks like Japanese. The girl's body was really thin like a twiggy and looked smaller than her age. And she danced sexily, throwing kisses to the man and the other people sitting near the table. When I saw her, I was really surprised at her and the man because it's strange that such a little girl did a sexy dance, but the man was smirking!!
I'm not sure but I guess the guy was Japanese and he might buy her....
What a dirty man!!
...now I'm wondering how I can change this world. ;(
