I choose this because sex trafficking is at an all time high in Dubai. It makes you wonder with a wealthy country like that why is sex trafficking happening and nothing is being done about it. After visiting that country multiple of time myself I always wondered how government officials and law enforcement not seeing this happening right in front of them. It makes me wonder if they know and payed by sex traffickers not to look or worry about what’s going on around them. In my thoughts I believe that they contribute to the cause or even purchase sex for pleasure. Many tourist are kidnapped and force into trafficking, which let me know that it is not safe to travel to the country alone. It is very important to research where to go and not to go in certain parts of the country. Then you have people from other countries that are recruited into trafficking. They are promised a better life and a good paying, then once they got there, their identity have been taken from them and including their passports so they are not able to leave the country. After doing minor researching on my research paper not only women are sexually traded but also men. All this is happening in major resorts and hotels in Dubai and tourist are engaging in the trafficking which is helping fund sex trafficking daily. Most people are not speaking up about it or maybe afraid too because they can not trust their own government or law officials.
