“Rainy” (not her real name) is not a sex worker, but a contractor who often performs her duties inside Australian brothels where many Thai prostitutes work. She reveals fascinating eyewitness stories as well as those she has heard throughout the years of spending time in the Thai sex trade circle. According to Rainy, many Thais put themselves at very high risk of legal issues not to mention the risks to their own physical and mental well-being—here in Australia, right around us.
