Hi,

I have jus been reading that Sven, the Danish guy former owner of 7 bar I think it was in Sunnee Plaza, Pattaya, has been given 8 years for procuring his male staff of between 15 and 19 years old for prostitution at his guesthose in Siem Reap.

From what I can gather, Cambodia has very ambiguous laws on prostitution and people who are considered minors are younger than 15.

The press, whether it is to be believed is another matter, states he was also taking a ' cut ' of the money the boys received. His accomplice a 21 year od Cambodian was given five years.

I don't have any views but it seems heavy on the surface of it for the normal goings on I am led to believe takes place in Cambodia.
