USA cracks down on sex tourism in Philippines. What???
The
US Ambassador to Manila, Harry K. Thomas, cracked down on the
Philippines. The US official expressed his concerns about the
development of sex tourism in the country. Mr. Thomas claimed that the
US Embassy in Manila, which is located on one of the main streets of the
Philippine capital, Roxas Boulevard, faces many notorious facilities.
Many of those facilities are poorly disguised as karaoke bars or
nightclubs. The country has sunk into vice and sex slavery, the official
also said.
Nearly 40 percent of male foreign tourists, including US citizens, visit the Philippines only for sex adventures.
"That is not something I'm proud of.
That's not something you should be proud of. I told [Philippine
Department of Justice] Secretary Leila de Lima that any American caught
engaged in any of these crimes or cybersex should be prosecuted to the
full extent of the law and we will assist," the official said.
