ISBN - 9718280138
Description: The international trafficking of women as prostitutes, especially Filipinas, for too long has lain at the heart of the dark side of globalization. Enticed by dreams of the good life in Japan, the Netherlands, the U.S., and even Nigeria, Lebanon and Cyprus, Filipinas, caught up in the iron grip of poverty at home, fearlessly venture forth into journeys that, alas, too often turn out to be nightmares that crush the soul, break the spirit, and, sometimes, even kill.
