People

A brothel just yards from the China/Burma border fence. With the rise in the number of single Chinese men, demand has grown Burmese women. Some come willingly, others are trafficked and traded. Many are children. Further west in Yunnan province, women and girls are smuggled in from Vietnam and Laos. The problem stretches across China’s vast borders. International anti-trafficking agencies say women are brought to China from Russia, Mongolia and the Ukraine. Women from the poorest countries are most at risk, and the problem worsens on China’s borders with North Korea — particularly because North Korean women are sent back to their home country to face disastrous consequences when caught.
