Unfortunately, various efforts made to combat sexual exploitation of children in Thailand are made in isolation. We need to solve the long-standing systemic challenges that Thailand faces by devising a comprehensive national strategy for child exploitation prevention and interdiction. Utilising a US model, TICAC combats sexual exploitation facilitated via the internet. Adapted from US models, the centre provides shelter and resources for victims of child sexual exploitation and abuse. As we develop best practices in Thailand, we need to propagate this approach throughout Southeast Asia, transforming Thailand into a safe haven for children.
