Topchubek Turgunaliev , director of the Institute of Human Rights and Freedoms: Prostitution in Kyrgyzstan is on the upbeat for the past years, which triggers serious concern.
I have studied this issue well. Take western countries or Russia, for example, where the so-called accommodation houses are legal since Yes, I think prostitution in Kyrgyzstan should be legalized; representatives of this ancient profession should be under strict medical and social control.
We all know that red lamps are often attended by family men, who risk to catch infection. It definitely should be legalized. Brothels should become open and government should take it under control. I have no money to invest into brothel industry development. But even if I had some, I would better invest it into boarding schools construction. Those who use services of that kind of places should spend their money on its development.
How you say it correctly? Commercial sex workers? Legalization of commercial sex is essential. This way we could provide security for working girls and boys.
Today, hundreds of female and, if you know, male prostitutes are assaulted by their clients. My attitude to fast love followers is rather positive. I think there is a certain benefit from them, if this profession is still demanded. I believe that adults have a right to choose how they will earn their living. It is not their fault that they had to enter this business to feed their families. They made their choice and one should not judge them.
