We've seen more and more that girls and women who are in prostitution are also involved in drugs. At some point they get pregnant and decide to abort or commit infanticide. And then they end up in jail. Their parents aren't aware of what is going on, and they can end up in jail for years and years with no one following their case and without being judged in court. We are putting pressure on the government so that there will be legal action against pimps and the brothel owners.
Prostitution is violence against women and a violation of human rights.
Therefore, we don't think that the issue of prostitution should be looked at as an issue of money. Direct action has to be taken to help families, especially poor families, to help save their daughters from prostitution. The government has to become engaged and we want to be a part of it. The NGOs have a big responsibility, especially the ones that work for the rights of women. We have to be careful not to further victimize the prostitutes and make them feel guilty.
