Abstract

This paper explores the recent change of legal status of the solicitation of sex services in Cambodia brought about by the recently adopted Law on Suppression of Human Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation. In Cambodia, the practices associated with the government's handling of the issue of prostitution are well-entrenched and are proving to be resilient in the face of the changing laws. Amidst the stalemates and confusion that abound as a result, Cambodia's sex workers find their rights compromised and at times trampled. Non-governmental services expected to assist the sex workers in the restoration of their rights often exacerbate their plight.
