Sex workers push to legalize prostitution

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- An organization representing sex workers once again protested for the legalization of prostitution yesterday at the Ministry of the Interior, resulting in an official promising to announce the ministry's stance by the 18th.

Four months since its last appeal, the Collective of Sex Workers and Supporters (COWAS) returned to the ministry in demand of an official timeline.

An official from the ministry met with the collective and said that the ministry is ready to publish its directives on the issue by the 18th.

The report is scheduled to be forwarded to the Executive Yuan for discussion in the Human Rights Protection and Promotion Committee at the end of the month.
