Indonesia bordellos and brothels are diverse in nature and range from rumah resocialisasi, government run bordellos aiming to rehabilitate women, to plain cheap dumps for men to get relief. Thomas Clarion is taking an interest in who runs these joints and if the management live up to their expectations, in the process he meets the women, some jewels of women.

About the author

Thomas Clarion studies psychology and anthropology but his curious nature made him a journalist instead. He worked in the field for over 20 years covering the 'behind' the news interest. He wanted to fathom what actually made the news or what never reached the headlines. The intricacy of networks related to grand scale prostitution became his topic for a while with the organized Rest and Recreation as prominent example of neo-colonial attitude.
