Trafficking topographies


When the US pulled out of Vietnam the Tai sex industry faced a worrying cut in profits. The sex business in partnership with the tourist industry and the goverment decide to attract new type of client. Tourists replaced military personnel. New bridges for sex tourist has been established between towns from Germany, Denmark, Japan and Bangkok. This builds new mitologies, stereotypes and stimulus for the town economy. Trafficking increased. CODE:RED Bangkok, Trafficking Topographie are bringing documentary material and map some of the most important routes of international trafficking in Asia.
