Right. I mean, if someone told you, do you want to go work in customer service in Cambodia? Like we'll give you $200 a month. That would hold no appeal for you. Right. But yes, like there are a class of people who can't find any jobs, who are desperate for work. And when they see an ad on Facebook or something like that, they're like, I'll give it a try.

Just floor after floor of people who were forced to send scam messages around the clock. And if they didn't meet quotas, they'd be beaten or tortured, like shocked with electric batons or even killed. Like, I've heard from people that if they didn't make their quota, they had to line up and beat each other. And they'd be like, if you don't beat each other hard enough, like, we will beat you.

Chinatown is outside the city center. It's like maybe a 15-minute drive from town. And there's a big avenue that runs through the middle of it. And on the right is this like blue glass X-shaped unfinished casino. And on the left is two different groups of office towers. The first group, maybe a dozen buildings, could have held thousands of people.

These ones, as we get there, they're clearly empty. And the gates are open, and we're able to walk into the courtyard. But if you keep going, you get to a second group of buildings called that surround a hotel called the KB Hotel. People call it Kaibo because it's next to this KB or Kaibo Hotel. And it's another, like, 12 buildings that could have held a few thousand people.

This whole area is weird because it's clearly built to be like a fancy casino. But all of the office towers that held the trafficked workers were super run down and dirty and totally out of place. But at the center of it, there's this KB Hotel, which has this gold facade. It's like a pretty fancy looking hotel. Weirdly, though, like it actually appeared to be open to the public.
