Trapped: The Underage Sex Industry in Malaysia

In September 2014, a documentary was released on Youtube. It’s called Trapped - The Underage Sex Trade in Malaysia. It’s description is: ‘An exposé of the dark underbelly of Kuala Lumpur, where underage girls from other Asian countries work in the sex trade -- some of their own choice, others brutalized victims held as virtual prisoners.' We spoke to folks behind this documentary about the reality of the problem in Malaysia.
