A couple of U. A significant drop in the number of Philippine women working as juicy girls in the clubs across the peninsula has a key representative of the clubs wondering if bar owners might be better served offering a more upscale and diverse variety of establishments in the areas near U.
A crackdown by the Philippine government on South Korea's importing of bar girls has led to a 50 to 60 percent drop in the number of women working as hostesses at the plus bars near U. As of now, we are in what you could call a time of reflection. The decline in bar workers has occurred since a Stars and Stripes investigation a year ago detailed how prostitution and human trafficking were flourishing in the juicy bars that cluster by the dozens in seedy base-area entertainment districts.
Since that report, Philippine government officials announced they were no longer approving contracts that promoters secure to bring in women to work the bars. Philippine officials said they were upset not only about the prostitution but also about the fact that the Filipinas are brought to South Korea for the express purpose of touching, kissing and otherwise flirting with servicemembers.
In addition, U. Chris Smith, R-N. The U. State Department, in its Trafficking in Persons Report, also referenced the plight of women who work at the juicy bars near U. The clubs are primarily staffed by Philippine women who are imported to flirt with servicemembers. In addition, some of the juicy girls arrange to meet customers outside of work, where they strike sex-for-cash deals on the side or pose as girlfriends and then hit the men up for money purportedly to send home or pay off debts.
Changes in areas around bases where juicy bars abound are becoming noticeable. Recent visits to America Town near Kunsan Air Base, the Shinjang Mall commercial district outside Osan Air Base and The Ville just outside the front gate of Camp Casey found scantily clad Philippine women still hovering in juicy bar doorways trying to lure passing servicemembers into their establishments.
