"When they arrive, they are told they are in debt bondage, sometimes for up to seven million yen' for their air ticket, food and lodging, said Ms Keiko Otsu of Asian women's shelter Help.
They are under debt bondage so they are actually forced to prostitution, confined 24 hours a day."
They would lead you to believe that the slave trade is alive and well in Japan. This scenario reminds me of a Cowboy Bebop episode where they un-freeze Faye Valentine and say she needs to pay the doctors 30million wo0longs for patching her up. Faye of course doesn't go into prostitution but the situation still would suxX0r.
