Abstract
The sex trafficking industry has evolved into a persistent and globally prevalent problem, notably in Asia. It is fundamentally a business-oriented and profit-driven activity. Political, social, and economic issues influence the modus operandi of sex traffickers. The majority of existing studies on sex trafficking in Asia are studied from several viewpoints, including human rights, feminists, and migration, with the least emphasis on the traffickers’ economic and organisational issues. Therefore, this paper will discuss the root causes of sex trafficking in Asia and examine it from a business economic and organisational standpoint, by analysing extensive literature and examining primary and secondary sources. According to these sources, three important factors contribute to the crime of sex trafficking: the supply of potential victims for exploitation in the source countries, the constant demand for trafficked victims in the destination countries, and the presence of organised crime groups acting as intermediaries in the market-driven business enterprise.
