K11
Common name for a Vietnamese brothel village named Sway Pak located 11 Kilometres North of
Phnom Penh in Cambodia on National Highway 5. Once notorious for housing hundreds of
twenty-something, teenage and preteen prostitutes in its large brothel complexes it has now (2008) ceased 99% of its previous sex business as a result of a continuing government and
NGO presents beginning in 2003. In its
heyday it attracted sex tourists from all over the world and huge crowds of locals every weekend night.Today sex tourists continue to use K11 as a noun to refer to similar spots in the third and communist world. This is a widely recognized code phrase referring to a location with an abundance of young cheaply available prostitutes.
