This post is translation of news article from the Myanmar Express Group. A busy street in Mae Sot This was what Ko Aung who works at a Guest House in Maesot bitterly said of the poor families of Burmese prostitutes working in Maesot. We have to call for a Burmese girl if the guest wants one. And there she comes by a motorbike. All three together on the bike. Father, mother, and a child.
Child is just over one. Father drives the bike. Mother is the prostitute. While mother is in the room with the guest the father and the child wait outside. Father giving bottled-milk to his child.
When her business is over they all go back home on the bike, unbelievable! Burmese Girls are Willing to become Prostitutes. But nowadays more and more young Burmese women have been coming to Maesot to work willingly as whores.
According to one Burmese woman who used to be a sex-worker and now a Mamasan running a large brothel in Maesot, it used to be difficult to get a new prostitute from Burma but in last ten years it is a lot easier as the pimps from Maesot are now well connected with the brokers deep inside Burma. During my time working the guests it was almost impossible to get a new Burmese girl here in Maesot. So the pimps and mamasans had to use so many unscrupulous ways to get a new girl.
But times have changed and now we can even order a choice girl with particular figure and size through the brokers back in Burma. One reason is life back home is so extremely difficult even the decent Burmese girls are giving serious thoughts to becoming a low-life whore here in Thailand.
