Prostitution is no different from other labor market. Over the years, Korean prostiutes have been found in places like Japan and Australia in increasing numbers. Notice that this void has been made by prostitutes from poorer countries like the Philippines. Moving up on potential income ladder ... LOL.

The South Korean government should rather regulate prostitution than outright crackdown. Not that crackdown has been known for effectiveness in the past. They just huddle in obscure places while there is a wave of crackdown in progress, but they will pop up again later once that wave has passed by.

I guess Etewan (Or how ever you spell it) is a ghost town now days...

First it was Olongapo just outside of Subic Bay Naval base (Maraposes, Stoned Crow, The Shamrock...yeah, you know those places...probably pretty well), Then BC Street in Naha Okinawa, then the Male box outside of Camp Cassey...Gawd why even join the Military anymore? Where are these young lads going to get to go to get their ashes hauled? Surely not the Middle East!

Well, I lift my glass to good times, great friends, Cheap drinks and a LBFM waiting on me to pay her bar fine!

Aside from the economics - we all know the price of tail is directly related to national GNP - the ultra liberal, political correct, agenda has made it into the UCMJ. Older guys can remember how Japan changed in regards to this issue as they moved up the economic ladder in the late 1960s into the 1970s. But once military leaders began enforcement of UCMJ punishment against any servicemember (or DoD employee or contractor) for acquiring the services of a prostitute, it sort of came in line with getting an assignment to the Middle East General Order < (no alcohol no local women). Not having assignments anymore to the P.I. or Thailand ( and even Navy ship liberties had to face the new UCMJ constraints in regards to human trafficking ), well the only choices available was in-house. The constraints about fraternizatiion were never relaxed, so I wonder if the stats reflect its simply a case of more women in the military or lack of available outlets off-post. Now add in the fact that even Don't ask, don't tell has been removed leaves only that outlet for deployed single military males - not unlike a prison environment.
