The transformation of industrialization is important to understand the development of slavery in Thailand.

This has resulted in the formation of modern-day slavery in Thailand.

Accepted Answer

Debt bondage is a form of modern-day slavery in which people are forced to work to pay off a debt. In Thailand, girls are often lured into debt bondage with promises of good jobs, education, or opportunities to travel. Once they arrive at their destination, their passports are taken away and they are forced to work in factories, brothels, or as domestic servants until their "debt" is paid off, which can take years or even decades. This process of exchange is known as debt bondage.
