Prostitution is a complex problem. Hence it requires serious and comprehensive attention and handling from some aspects – moral, social, cultural, legal, or norms, etc. The legal norms from various different countries, including Indonesia, categorize prostitution as an illegal action, whereas others are silent with some exceptions.
