Singapore is one of Asia's wealthiest economies, attracting migrant workers from across the region.
But many of those workers are women who are forced to work in the sex trade due to growing poverty caused by the global economic downturn.
Al Jazeera's Tony Birtley reports.
They are capable of having children, but a healthy family is another story.

Very wealthy government officials from around the world are some of the biggest customers to Singapore and Thialand. Same thing is going on with opium and cocaine and organized crime and the world governments. They are all getting rich on the sex and drug trades together. Money is being laundered all over the world. Mafia pays the DEA etc...

I'm not really sure what you're getting at when you say the West follows systems of ancient Egypt. Kind of a strange statement. Young girls are not physically ready to have children and have sexual relationships regardless of maturity.

By AngelJoyCN [Affiliate User] 1227535550 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveOK, if Singapore is so good at regulating people habits of trash dumbing, why is it having problems regulating "the world oldest profession" and making it a profession. Where are work permit regulations, where are sanitary regulations of borthels or night clubs, where are the taxations to take pimps and trafficers out of the picture?-legalization, regulation, taxation, singapore seems to be missing steps two and three!

All non-Muslim intellectuals of the West are against foreign policies of their countries. Watch Noam Chomsky and Norman Finkelstein, they are Jews. See what they say about the violence and where it comes from.
