ABSTRACT
This research explores many components that seem to be driving forces of what causes human trafficking to be more severe in Vietnam than in the United States. Majority of nations have demonstrated their efforts by enacting their own versions of laws with the intentions of eliminating trafficking. Although already established laws in each country punish individuals for the same offenses, they are not all equally effective. In this report, I compare the laws surrounding human trafficking in Vietnam and the United States as well as the effectiveness of their enforcement through the use of personal anecdotes as well as research. It demonstrates how compared to America, Vietnam exhibits more corruption in their general anti-trafficking policies and in the overall government. In addition to the government, a nation's physical characteristics influence how widespread human trafficking is. Considering how, in comparison to the geography of America, Vietnam's topography and terrain enable human trafficking in Asia.
