just because something is happening on a fairly large scale and seems  
to be more ore less ignored by the government does not mean that it  
is legal. Thailand as of 1996 has a 'Prevention and Suppression of  
Prostitution Act' that outlaws the hiring of prostitutes under the  
age of 18 and the King of Saudi Arabia by abolished slavery back in  
1962...
