Brothel Complexes, Jakarta, Indonesia

Another major cause is coercion. Young women are offered employment opportunities in major cities, then raped and forced to prostitute themselves while paying money to their pimps. They may also be sold by their parents. The International Labour Organization (ILO) reports that roughly 70 percent of Indonesian child prostitutes are brought into the trade by their family or friends. Based on the Koentjoro Study (1998), the main cause why a woman becomes a prostitute is because of the role material aspiration and instigators play.
