Thai sex workers may be given legal status

Sex Workers

Thailand considers legalizing prostitution which could make life better for its many sex workers.

Legalisation would give the estimated 200,000 sex workers access to social services, health care and protection from abuse while exposing corruption among the industry's gatekeepers - police, politicians and business owners, proponents say.

Chantawipa Apisuk, who runs Empower, an educational organisation promoting rights of sex workers, says as long as prostitution is illegal, "the mafia will be the employer and ... the employees will be sex slaves".

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Thai sex workers may be given legal status. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
