Cambodia crackdown on pedos
PHNOM PENH,
Cambodia Cambodian officials are talking about ways to stop foreigners from coming to their country to have sex with children. Child rights advocates say Cambodia, one of the world's poorest countries, is a haven for foreign pedophiles because of lax law enforcement. More than 100 tourism and government officials are meeting in Phnom Penh this week to discuss joint efforts to stop the child exploitation. The U-S-based Christian humanitarian group World Vision says all sectors must cooperate to ensure that "people who harm children are monitored, arrested and prosecuted." Recent police crackdowns have landed many foreign pedophiles in jail or returned them for prosecution in their home countries, including the United States. |

Chinese, Taiwanese, or Japanese businessmen or tourists" make up the "vast majority" of pedophiles in Cambodia? ....or is this just another anecdotal derived from your standing in line behind all these folk? michael |

This type of child abuse is far worse than drug pushers and should be dealt with properly. can you elaborate on this?? what about child soldiers?? children starving? Personally I would have thought all about equal on the horror charts. |

Sure, I can elaborate.
By publicly allowing foreigners to come in and rape your children is wrong. If the country wants to stop it, it must come down hard on those who do it. By implementing very tough laws will send a strong message to the public globally that this is not going to be allowed anymore and if you do come to the country looking for a child then you could sit in prison a long long time, or even better and cheaper be dealt with accordingly. Of course there are other situations children are in that are being dealt with but the subject line on this thread was clear. "alex" wrote in message ...

Wold Vision should stay out of this. President Bush likes "faith based
initiatives". What the Bush administration does is to take a field where professional police work is needed and hand it over to Christian fundamentalist amateurs. World Vision has backing from the State Department. These people have their own agenda, mainly the spread of Christianity at the cost of Cambodian Buddhism. And of course they are anti-"sex tourism" even when no children are involved, despite this issue being none of their business. Could the US send someone other than these religious zealots please?

That does not mean one shouldn't act on them, and I would challenge the statement "this funding for their latest fleet of Landrovers (or some such), which is the ONLY thing any of this is about." Too many pedophiles and sex tourists hide behind such statements. |
