That’s not what he said.
He said he does not believe that the people were here for regular jobs. He believes that they are being forced into sex slavery.
Cheers, interested for his clarification. But I know a LOT here for regular jobs. They aren’t all sex slaves. Especially the male fatties working the production lines.
Either way, the criminal side here is still very much rampant. And that’s a shame on Taiwanese, more than anyone.
That would, clearly, be ideal. We need a fair trading currency. We cna trade shells, metal, time or whatever as a universally accepted media of trade. Money ain’t the issue… money is just the tool to trade. People are the issue…so…? Taiwan is filled with greed. Loads of what I already mentioned above.
I have a feeling there is a lot of organized crime money lining the pockets of politicians to keep sex work illegal. If it were legalized and regulated like other industries, the underground market and motivation to traffic humans would decrease substantially.
That is indeed the exact root of a lot of corrupt industries…it’s a crying shame people don’t fight for the rights of our fellow people to get them at least the most basic of legal protection against gangsters. Rather, we, not only enable but also promote it [black market profiteering]. It’s pretty gross. The most anti prostitution religious type groups should be exactly on this point to shut it down. Yet, nope. They are fueling the issues. Be it intentionally or not.
Edit. It’s easier to line the pockets of low level drones. Aka. Law enforcement, religious sects, schools, businesses etc. Going to presidential level is a next level investment. And it won’t go well, publicly.
Yes, I suppose I should have broadened my statement to say “those in power” rather than “politicians,” but I’m sure it makes its way to politicians in some form or another.
The idea we shouldn’t have religion in politics doesn’t actually exist today, unfortunately. Even though religion and state should absolutely be separated. And, despite it been said superficially now and then, it isnt. As should lobbyists, gangsters and other corrosive diseases that actually are legalized entities and have proper influence on our governance and a detroment to our society. I totally agree on your point: “those in power”. It’s all corrupt. We need to start weeding this shit out.
Just in case I got this wrong. After this “large” scale investigation and going around town rounding up a tiny fraction of the prostitutes. 4 staff members were brought in and their condoms and lubricants were seized. The foreigners are getting deported. And a ring leader got out before after only 2 months and started making trouble again. Is that right?
No one actually in charge got in trouble?
No one importing sex slaves/labor got in trouble?
No pimps getting girls hooked on drugs and becoming whores got in trouble?
No officials, be it police or otherwise, that clearly knew where and what was going on got in trouble?
They only checked 13?
Congrats Taiwan, we are officially peices of shit. It’s comical how little we care as a country about anything but ourselves. What a joke. Well done protecting our streets from poorly educated unethical ass hole men paying money to the dark underworld of sex slavery to cheat on their wives. Parents, teachers, society…ought to be proud! All the while denying this industry should be legal, standardized and even the normal protection of labor rights, health care and the taxation it needs. I get why ex president Chen did this, it was worse before. But in 2024, we need to wake he fuck up. It’s not the 70s anymore.
Fail, fail and more fail. It’s pretty hard to watch this on rinse and repeat, granted most go uncredited without police intervention. Someone got too cocky in an area too public. The fucking goof. If the wanhua police show up, you know you done fucked up. Or was that 2 monther just another low level fall guy, as is the status quo?
