I had the opportunity to read thru that post before deletion. It was informative and I learnt something from it. Not sure why you deleted it instead of the one below.ecureilx wrote:edited as not relevant ..Strong Eagle wrote:http://gvnet.com/humantrafficking/Singapore.htm
It is posts like this one that detract from your other more meaningful contributions.

--wait; that sounds wrong; very wrong.
But .. honestly, since I switched jobs, and don't do any on-site support, I haven't been to Tanjong Pagar for like 5 years or so ... .. not a place I fancy, since almost all of them have sad stories .. and heart wrenching, whether true or not is besides the point .. and oh, all of them were 'imported' here, fully within the boundaries of Singapore's law .. 
There is nothing surprising at all. If you read my other post, what I'm saying is the rate of occurrence is exaggerated mostly based on the presumptions by various groups that create these types of reports that illegal prostitution is nearly always associated with trafficking.x9200 wrote:Why is it so surprising that it may happen or actually happens in Singapore?

Exactly the same words you wrote in more words though .,.
All all of the above does happen, and also a small capital to put up a store, etc, etc, and all, with a six months stint here, considering the cost of living back home, vs the earnign potential in Singapore .. and .. oh, don't think LV fits in, as LV cannot be pawnedzzm9980 wrote:
The truth is, some girls that grew up in squalor and just want to feed their family, put their younger siblings through school (so those siblings have more options), buy some land at home, etc. They're also realistic that they have one marketable asset to make that happen.
And maybe an iPhone4 and LV handbag or two for good measure would be nice...
