Trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation is a social problem that has marred the reputations of Southeast Asian countries such as Cambodia and Thailand. Estimates of the extent of this problem vary dramatically, and research on child sexual exploitation in these countries is almost nonexistent. The findings of the current study reveal the complex nature and inner workings of this industry from those who live with it on a daily basis. Based on this study, implications for change are discussed. Notes and references (Published Abstract)
