This document informs Users about the technologies that help this Application to achieve the purposes described below.

For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as "Trackers" within this document – unless there is a reason to differentiate.

Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also require the User's consent. Whenever consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in this document.

This Application uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner (so-called “first-party” Trackers) and Trackers that enable services provided by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers). Unless otherwise specified within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers managed by them.
The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some of them expire upon termination of the User’s browsing session.
In addition to what’s specified in the descriptions within each of the categories below, Users may find more precise and updated information regarding lifetime specification as well as any other relevant information — such as the presence of other Trackers — in the linked privacy policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.

Other Trackers in the browser’s local memory may be cleared by deleting the browsing history.

With regard to any third-party Trackers, Users can manage their preferences via the related opt-out link (where provided), by using the means indicated in the third party's privacy policy, or by contacting the third party.

Prostitution is still complicated; There is a lack of appropriate policies and programs for active intervention, especially harm reduction, violence prevention and job change support for sex workers.

Decree No. 178/2004 / ND-CP dated October 15, 2004 of the Government detailing the implementation of a number of articles of the Ordinance on Prostitution Prevention and Control.

2. Practical basis

a) Current situation of prostitution

According to reports from 63 provinces and centrally-run cities, currently, the number of sex workers with management records is 11,240 people, of which, concentrated in some areas such as: Red River Delta: 3,673 people ; Northeast: 913 people; North Central: 887 people; Southeast: 3,200 people; Mekong River Delta: 1,374 people; 1,189 people in other areas. However, the actual number may be even higher since this is a difficult activity to control due to its complexity, sophistication and disguise.

New types of prostitution activities and subjects are emerging: call girls, sex tourists, foreigners selling sex, male sex workers, gay sex workers, transgender sex workers, online prostitution brokers internet, facebook, ... The situation of sex workers using drugs tends to increase; sex buyers of many different ages and groups, including those who have no stable jobs, are self-employed: 75.7%, enterprises: 20%, officers, employees: 3 %; 80% of owners, brokers are from 18 to 25 years old; Over 40% of the owners are women. In cities, the re-emergence of prostitution spots in public areas, adversely affecting the cultural environment, fine customs and traditions, affecting social order and safety, causing frustration in public opinion.

Prostitution has caused many consequences for society: The risk of spreading social diseases, HIV / AIDS through sexual contact due to unsafe sex (rate of people infected with HIV through sex every day increasing (45.3%, accounting for the highest rate among other transmission routes); prevalence among men who have sex with men is 3.9% (up nearly 2 times compared to 2012) Sex workers often suffer from violence, appropriation of property, money, sexual exploitation; discrimination, alienation, and difficulty in accessing social services ...

Prostitution has also increased gangs, organized crime of buying and selling drugs, organizing illegal drug use, human trafficking, and organizing prostitution activities in some localities. Establishing the lines of trafficking for the purpose of prostitution ...; The situation of trafficking in women and children for the purpose of prostitution tends to increase not only domestically and internationally.

b) Existence and limitations

- In some localities, the government has not really paid attention to the prevention and control of prostitution; has not yet drastically and continuously directed the fight against crimes and acts of violation of the administrative law related to prostitution, leading to the existence of organized crime venues and nests. public prostitution activities, challenging public opinion; Many provinces and cities have not yet established and consolidated the interdisciplinary inspection team for prostitution prevention and control at all levels, so the results of inspection, examination and prevention are still limited.

- Communication on prostitution prevention and control has not been carried out regularly; The new content only focuses on reflecting the current situation of prostitution; has not focused on harm reduction propaganda and stigma reduction. The capacity of the contingent of reporters, communicators and collaborators on prostitution prevention and control is limited in quantity and quality.

- The operation of pilot models of harm reduction and support for sex workers is still simple, mainly through propaganda, communication, group activities, clubs; There has not been a system of specialized support services that is easily accessible to sex workers and victims of sexual exploitation.

- The workforce of grassroots prostitution prevention and control cadres is now mostly part-time, reducing the effectiveness of the prevention and control of prostitution in the locality.

- Low investment budget for prostitution prevention and control; Many provinces and cities do not allocate local budgets, only use support from the central budget; The limited budget is not commensurate with the assigned tasks, so many tasks are integrated or implemented in a short time so the effectiveness is limited.

c) Problems raised in current prostitution prevention and control

Cognitive problems
+ The views and awareness of prostitution prevention and control of some committees and local authorities have not been unified, so the implementation is not determined and radicalized, leading to the existence of clusters and groups criminals organize public prostitution activities, challenge public opinion.

+ A part of the population and young people today, due to inadequate awareness of the harm, think that this is a high-income job, have participated in this evils (selling sex, brokering prostitution, prostitution).

- About legal policy

The legal system on prostitution prevention and control issued for more than 10 years has revealed certain limitations, no longer consistent with reality, has not yet met the requirements of fighting and preventing prostitution in the new situation. Specifically:

+ The current concept of prostitution does not cover new behaviors such as buying and selling sex among homosexual people; acts related to prostitution such as sexuality, pornography ... there is no sanction against the subject of the act, making it difficult for the authorities to organize the prevention and prevention of trade. sex in service business establishments.

+ Although determination of prevention is measure tfocus on prostitution prevention and control, however the Ordinance lacks provisions on conditions to ensure resources for implementation; competence to handle violations (the competence to revoke licenses and practice certificates of chairpersons of provincial and district-level People's Committees; sanctioning competence of the Social Evils Prevention and Control Sub-Department ..

+ HIV / AIDS transmission through unsafe sex, especially through sex workers, is very high. Meanwhile, there are no regulations on the implementation of HIV / AIDS harm reduction interventions in prostitution prevention and control interventions.

- Regarding supporting mechanisms and policies

The Law on handling of administrative violations, Resolution No. 24/2012 / NQ-QH13, stipulates that the measure of sending to medical establishments is not applied to sex workers but there is no supportive mechanism, policy or service consistent with the social characteristics of the sex workers in the community.

- About the intervention models

Intervention programs for sex workers are based on a new approach perspective (ensuring equity, emphasizing social support, promoting the right to access and use social security services. , creating opportunities for sex workers to change jobs ...) is still in the pilot phase, implementation is not synchronous, limited in resources, so the number of people accessing services is very small.
