Sex trafficking operates as a business, where women are treated as commodities within a global market for sex. Traffickers profit from a supply of vulnerable women, international demand for sex slavery, and a viable means of transporting victims. Globalization and the expansion of free market capitalism have increased these factors, leading to a dramatic increase in sex trafficking. Globalization has also brought new dimensions to the fight against sex trafficking.

Since 2001, the State Department has been evaluating the anti- trafficking efforts of governments around the world. The analysis is published annually in the Trafficking in Persons (TIP) Report, which has become the cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy on this issue. Governments whose efforts are deemed “insignificant” may be subject to economic and diplomatic sanctions by the U.S. government. Through analysis of media coverage, government proceedings, and interviews with select stakeholders, this study explores the ways in which the U.S. system of unilateral pressure influenced the anti-trafficking policies of Israel, the Philippines, and Thailand. Findings show that, for U.S. anti-trafficking pressure to be successful, it had to be combined with pressure “from below” by civil society organizations.

  • Social Pattern of Homeless Women Who Work As Prostitutes in Kuala Lumpur City Centre
    International Journal for Studies on Children, Women, Elderly And Disabled, Vol. 3, (January) ISSN 0128-309X 2018 SOCIAL PATTERN OF HOMELESS WOMEN WHO WORK AS PROSTITUTES IN KUALA LUMPUR CITY CENTRE Nor Amalina Mohd Adib Zaliha Hj. Hussin Yarina Ahmad ABSTRACT This paper presents the social pattern of homeless women who work as prostitutes in Kuala Lumpur city centre. This study adopted qualitative approach by using in-depth interviews with ten respondents’ homeless women who work as prostitutes in the area of Kuala Lumpur city. The respondents who involved in this study were among primary (genuine homeless) and secondary (rented room and stay with their friends occasionally) homelessness category. All of the respondents aged above 30 years old which have more experience working as prostitutes. All of the respondents were Malaysian who were not originally from Kuala Lumpur, yet were among internal migration from other states. Five of the respondents were Malays, two Indians, one Chinese and one Sarawakian. Majority of the respondents indicated that hotels were the most preferable location for their job. The respondents usually provide their sexual services at night. Many of the respondents were self-employed prostitutes rather than under pimp controlled. This paper concludes that majority of homeless women who engage in prostitution were among those who migrated to the city to seek for job and have a better life. They can be considered as desperate as they do not have other job due to living in poverty. Hence, homeless women who work as prostitutes in Kuala Lumpur city can be considered as vulnerable, at high risks and continue not to disclose their identity to public due to social stigma.

    LOGOS And another thing... Asian writing in English: Why it fails to reach a world market Leon Comber As a publisher's representative in Asia in the '50s and '60s, I often reflected that there were Asian writers whose work deserved to be published for audiences beyond their own countries.

Ritchie, M.A. Committee Member ______________________________ Brenda Ayres, Ph.D. Honors Director ______________________________ Date SEX-TRAFFICKING 3 Abstract The anti-slavery and other freedom fighting movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries did not abolish all forms of slavery. Many forms of modern slavery thrive in countries all across the globe. The sex trafficking trade has intensified despite the advocacy of many human rights-based groups. Southeast Asia ranks very high in terms of the source, transit, and destination of sex trafficking. In particular, human trafficking of women and girls for the purpose of forced prostitution remains an increasing problem in Cambodia. Cambodia’s cultural traditions and the breakdown of law under the Khmer Rouge and Democratic Kampuchea have contributed to the current governing policies which maintain democracy only at the surface level of administration.
