Prostitution in Malaysia

Prostitution in Malaysia is restricted[1][2][3] in all states despite it being widespread in the country.[4] Related activities such as soliciting and brothels are illegal.[1][2] In the two states of Terengganu and Kelantan, Muslims convicted of prostitution may be punishable with public caning.[5]

There were an estimated 150,000 prostitutes in Malaysia in 2014 and that the country's sex trade generated US$963 million.[6]
