Owed Justice: Thai Women Trafficked into Debt Bondage in Japan
Human Rights Watch, USA
Supplied note:
"Thousands of Thai women are 'trafficked' every year into Japan, where
many of them endure slavery-like conditions in the Japanese sex
industry. According to 'Owed Justice: Thai Women Trafficked into Debt
Bondage in Japan,' (published on Sep 21, 2000), the women are
typically promised lucrative jobs by traffickers in Thailand, but
arrive in Japan to find themselves trapped in 'debt.'"
