2. China
Back in the 1980s, China experienced a quick and rapid modernization that resulted in economic, cultural, and social shifts that greatly impacted its citizens. One major change was the number of people who began working in construction and the country’s minefields. They eventually became slaves to these industries, and forced labor continues to be a problem to this day. There are now 3.4 million slaves in China, including young Cambodian and Vietnamese girls who have been trafficked in for sexual slavery and sold as young brides.
