DELETIA
Prostitution is illegal in Thailand. Nevertheless, like all crime,
it exists. Sexual intercourse with a minor is statutory rape and
is punishable by imprisonment. In 1996, Thai laws were strengthened
by new legislation, which significantly increased the penalties for
those caught engaging in sex with a minor. The law targets customers,
procurers, pimps, and owners and operators of brothels as well as
parents who sell their children. The Thai law also provides for prison
terms of up to ten years and heavy fines for anyone convicted of being
involved in international commercial sex trade. The new legislation
eased restrictions on the police, making it easier for them to enter
and search suspected brothels and make arrests. The Royal Thai Government
works closely with government and law enforcement agencies in other
countries and with international organizations to attack the problem
from the outside. Part of these efforts is aimed at preventing known
sex offenders and publishers of pornography from entering Thailand. The
Government monitors the activities of tour agents abroad who promote "sex
tours", in an attempt to prevent their customers from entering the country.
Those who engage in sexual activity with minors are subject to arrest and
imprisonment. The Thai police increased surveillance of suspected child
molesters and have made numerous arrests resulting in convictions and long-
term prison sentences. Information is now given to all tourists visiting
Thailand advising them of the law and the penalties for violating it. The
Royal Thai Government is committed to ending the problem of child prostitution.
