Young souls, cheap goods – children in sex tourism

The business of the sex mafia with children is flourishing worldwide. For example, in the Philippines

Along with drug and arms trafficking, sex tourism is one of the most lucrative sources of income in the organized crime sector. Child rights organizations estimate that every year half a million men fly from Europe alone to Third World countries as clients. The young victims pay the price. They often suffer the consequences of sexual abuse for the rest of their lives. In the Philippines, an Irish priest and local nuns work with children who have been victims of the sex mafia. But the entanglements reach all the way to Europe.
