Instead, human traffickers supply both children and adults to these regions from other places to meet the demand.

These pedophile advocacy groups deny their acts to be defined as sickness. Instead, they claim that their actions are caused because of the inherent nature of human which is nonsense because there is not any logical thought that supports their action. Sadly, these organizations play an important role to make child sex tourism organized because they promote pedophiles' behavior and find child sex tourism places for these abusers. Matar argues that few NGOs such as Fight Against Child Explotation and ECPAT maintain an anti-pedophile movement to permanently stop them. (p. 169). In addition to this, a tight passport control mechanism is needed to prevent these children predators. Hall argues that %25 of the arrested pedophiles are Americans, %16 of them are Germans, %13 of them are British and %13 of them are Australian. Therefore it is necessary for these NGOs to maintain anti-pedophile activism worldwide. As these NGOs acknowledge governments about this concerning issue, governments can cancel passports when they doubt that the one's purpose is sexually abusing children. (p. 159-161). Overall, child sex tourism still exists today in Thailand and many other regions. There are certain actions can be made by both some international organizations and NGOs to end child prostitution. Legal prosecutions should be more repressive, global awareness projects that made by ECPAT and UNICEF
Human trafficking exists in several nations all around us. No nation, including the United States is exempt from human trafficking. There may be factors that create unique anti-trafficking issues and obstacles for each nation, but the characteristics are all the same or very similar worldwide. These characteristics are how the trafficking is conducted, how the victims are kidnapped, the percentage of victims, the gender of the victims, and the percentage of each gender in different trafficking situations. The situations include children, adults, male, and female victims. The situations the victims fall into are pornography, forced labor, sex slaves, prostitution, child sex tourism, and many more. These are the issues and key points made by the authors to persuade the reader to agree with their position.
Sex trafficking, in general, is a very touchy subject. But when you bring children into the mix, the topic is almost of limits.

“I want my mommy” is a common phrase used by kids who are in emotional distress and want to find comfort. To hear a child utter those words would be enough to evoke empathy in most Americans.

There are current anti-trafficking laws in place to protect victims and children at risk. In 2000 the U.S. Congress passed the “Trafficking Victims Protections Act 2000” and is updated and reauthorized every two years, but TVPA only applies to federal cases tried in federal courts (Californians Against Sexual Exploitation, 2012). With these type of laws children are protected from potentially being trafficked. On the NPR website an interview took place between NPR interviewer Arun
This growing issue deserves attention for the main reasons that the success/rescue rate is so low. Only 1-2% of victims taken into sex trafficking are ever rescued (A21, 2016). This low rescue rate can be related to the low percentage of awareness and knowledge of the issue. Most Americans don’t know what sex trafficking looks like or how it can be spotted. This problem is also deserving of concern because the innocent lives that are being stripped of their moral rights. No human life on this planet deserves this level of torture and abuse like the kind endured of sex trafficking.
