| Overview The commercial sex scene is alive and well in Singapore. Singapore authorities figure that it is better to legalize prostitution in certain defined areas so that it can be controlled to a certain degree rather than to outlaw it completely. A complete ban on the sex trade will only drive it underground. This would make it impossible to keep tabs on the number of prostitutes in Singapore and therefore make it very difficult to conduct any education programs designed to promote safer sex practices and to keep track of (and treat if possible) the Sexually Transmitted Diseases which a part and parcel of this sordid business. What to Expect If you decide to go to some of these brothels, keep a few things in mind. The girls are clean, affordable and many times extremely talented and friendly. However, if you're not local or at least Asian, many of the girls will not agree to service you. This is not racism, but rather a pervasive fear among the girls that Angh Mo (Caucasians) are too greatly endowed and the experience will be too painful. I'm not to say whether it's true or not, but just be aware of this perception and don't get upset if a girl you want is unavailable to you. |

| Legal Singapore's Court of Appeal ruled in 2/97 that consensual oral sex is a criminal offense unless it is part of foreplay leading to proper intercourse. So make damn sure you don't forget to bang her after she sucks your cock. And make sure its a proper bang. Prostitution is legal. Operating a brothel and soliciting in public are technically illegal, but officially tolerated in certain areas called designated red-light areas (DRAs).Houses of prostitution not only exist, but are licensed, making it safe, healthy, and good clean fun. Working women have to carry a "yellow card" that proves that they are registered and have recently undergone their bi-weekly health check. Working conditions in the brothels are good: some even provide voluntary benefits to keep the prostitutes working there. Prostitutes don't work out of economic necessity (except the foreigners) since there's no poverty and nearly full employment in Singapore. The age of consent is 16. |

Chinatown Hotel Located 12-16 Teck Lim Road Singapore. Is in the vicinity of some brothels. Three StarsS$80.00 Laundry Almost all Singaporeans have washing machines in their homes, so the concept of self-service laundry is not terribly common here. There are some laundries listed in the Singapore Yellow Pages directory, but most of them are out in the Housing Board developments, so it may be a trek. A few hotels offer self-service launderettes, and most of them have a laundry service, but you'll pay inflated prices for clean clothes. Electrical Standard electrical current is 220 volts. Consult your concierge to see if your hotel has converters and plug adapters in-house for you to use. If you are using sensitive equipment, do not trust the cheap voltage transformers. Nowadays, a lot of electrical equipment--including portable radios and laptop computers--has built-in converters, so you can follow the manufacturer's directions for changing them over. FYI, videocassettes taped on different voltage currents are recorded on machines with different record and playback cycles. Prerecorded videotapes are not interchangeable between currents unless you have special equipment that can play either kind. |

| Dining Food Singapore is also known as the food capital of Asia, so sampling the local cuisine is an experience in itself. The city offers a vast array of dining options, including five-star restaurants, outdoor food stalls, fast food, sushi bars, and grand Chinese restaurants serving 10-course banquets. Clothing Attire Most restaurants and nightclubs will request attire that is dress casual, meaning a shirt and slacks for men and a dress or skirt/slacks and top for women. Because of the heat, many places are forgiving when it comes to dress codes--you can't be expected to be a fashion plate all the time--however, when formal attire is required, you should take it seriously. Men will be expected to appear in a jacket and tie and women in dress slacks or a formal dress. This will only be the case at very expensive restaurants or high-toned events. |
|
| Water It's clean and safe to drink from the tap. |
|
| Language No worries finding people who speak English in Singapore. English is taught in all the schools and used daily by most people. Maybe not their first language in their homes, but most people will speak English very well. |
|
| Security Crime Because of harsh laws, strict enforcement, and traditional cultural beliefs, there is not a lot of crime in Singapore. Murder and rape are almost nonexistent. A few pickpockets do creep around tourist-populated areas, though, so take care. All hotels have either a safe deposit box in the room or a safe behind the front counter. The only other thieves you need to be aware of are shop owners who may overcharge you for purchases, all in the sport of savvy salesmanship.Also, you probably don't want to become a criminal yourself. Violations that bring on large fines include littering, jaywalking, smoking in prohibited areas, and failing to obey taxi queues (meaning that if there's a taxi queue nearby, it's against the law to hail a cab out of the queue). Police Given the strict law enforcement reputation in Singapore, you can bet the officers here don't have the greatest senses of humor. If you find yourself being questioned about anything, big or small, be dead serious and most respectful. For emergencies, call tel. 999. If you need to call the police headquarters, dial tel. 65/235-9111. Drugs If you are caught in possession of morphine quantities exceeding 30 grams, heroin exceeding 15 grams, cocaine 30 grams, marijuana 500 grams, hashish 200 grams, or opium 1.2 grams, the Singapore government will consider you to be a drug trafficker and you will receive the death penalty--no questions asked. Prohibited Controlled drugs and psychotropic substances. Firecrackers, Cigarette lighters of pistol/revolver shape Toy coins and toy currency notes. Reproductions of copyright publications, video tapes or disks, records or cassettes. Endangered species of wildlife and their by- products. Obscene articles and publications. Seditious and treasonable materials. Show Respect Remove your shoes if invited to a Singaporean home. Don't Wear your shoes inside a temple or mosque if visiting these places of worship. Smoking It's against the law to smoke in public buses, elevators, theaters, cinemas, air-conditioned restaurants, shopping centers, government offices, and taxi queues. Fines There are fines for littering, jaywalking, not flushing a public toilet, urinating in an elevator, talking on a mobile phone while driving, and the sale and importation of chewing gum. In some cases as high as S$1000 (U.S. $571.43). |

| Where Red Light Districts There are a few red-light districts with a total of about 400 brothels, each employing 10-20 registered prostitutes. Orchard
Towers First
Floor 2nd Floor 3rd Floor
(main building) The Pink
Pussycat The Desker Road Area. Low-end red light district. It all takes place in the back alley between Desker Road and Rowell Road. Inside the doorways you will see 1 to 6 women sitting around looking bored and contemptuous in a bare room with cane chairs. Condom ads on the walls. For $15 to 40 US dollars for a quickie. Small and uncomfortable rooms. The women here are desperate. Old and ugly whores that can not work in the regular areas. Late evening you may find street girls in Desker Road itself. For 60 Sing dollars (plus 10 "for the room") you go up the stairs into a dark room with a mattress on the floor and little else. The girl removes her clothing below the waist. A blow job followed by sex (her on top, condom used). Geylang The most popular legal red-light district. Location All "chicken houses" (A.K.A.) or brothels, that are located in the designated zone south of Geylang Road (which starts with Lorong 2 and extends all the way to Lorong 30) are legal. Lorongs are small streets, like Soi's in Thailand. Maybe 120 brothels, each with several women. It takes two hours just to walk the district. Rather mechanical sex is provided here, but the scale is amazing. Description The brothels all have large number plates, muted red lighting. All the brothels look the same from the outside. Once you have chosen the brothel, you enter and you are usually greeted by an old Chinese man. The waiting rooms are empty. The girls don't work at a fixed location. You tell the Papasan or Mamasan what you want, they'll call for a girl. She is delivered by her pimp to the brothel in a car. She is picked up after your finished with her and then brought to her next customer. The whole atmosphere is rather clean. You will hardly see girls walking around since they are either inside the brothel or in a car. Police patrol the area and is very safe. Most of the brothels open at 4pm., some at 1pm. Prices range from $50-200. The prostitutes in Geylang are issued with special certificates. It allows them to ply their trade. However, they are not allowed to solicit sex by the roadside or at the hotel lobbies in the area. Best Time
To Visit Thai Brothels Prices Keong Siak Street (Poor man's Area) Located in the Chinatown and the whole area used to contain row after row of run down pre war terrace houses. The area has been an "approved" red light district. It serves the poorer segment of Singapore Society. In recent years, the area has been redeveloped and quite a number of boutique type hotels and wine bars have sprouted up amongst the houses of sin. This makes for an interesting mix of "cultures", especially on weekends when the Yuppies are getting stoned in the bars while the hard core sex addicts are getting their rocks off on the other side of a brick wall which separates the two establishments. Massage Parlors The Executive Spa A health center near Marina bowling, it is a spa and massage with extras thrown in for extra money. Enter and sign in using your real name in case of a bust. Sign up for a massage time which may be 30 minutes after your arrival. Relax and enjoy a Jacuzzi or work out until they call you. Shortly after you go to the designated room and wait for your masseuse. You are now on the clock for 45 minutes. After about 20-25 min. she'll ask if you want a sexy massage. There's 3 levels: (1) hand job, (2) BJ (3) Full service. Blow jobs and fucks are performed with condoms. Executive
Massage The escort services are legal and private call girls are legal. Guys & Dolls: They're located in Orchard Towers (listed in the Yellow Pages too). If you have time, stop by and flip through their photo book. Tell the receptionist exactly what you have in mind. Good looking girls in the photo album. Feelie Bars Take the MRT to Aljuniad and walk to the Geylang Road (central section around Lorong 19 and up); also in Sims Avenue and some of the Lorongs connecting to Geylang Road. Look for establishments called, variously, Music Lounge, Brandy Lounge, Midnight Lounge and other such names. They usually advertise a Happy Hour up to 6:00pm during which Anchor Beer will cost you about 20 Singapore Dollars (9 pounds sterling or 15 US dollars), or Brandy at 80 Sing dollars a half bottle or 150 a full bottle (it's not available by the glass). After 6:00pm much higher prices apply, it's a bit of a rip-off. For your money you get not just the booze, but a session with a Chinese (usually) girl in very dark seat with a high back in a very dark room. The only light is over the bar, and that's not a bright one. If you just bought a beer, she will feel you and make sure you get a raging erection, but more than this requires the purchase of brandy at the above prices. Her task is to part you from your money by purchases of hooch, in return for which you *may* get a nice sexual experience. Transvestites Caution: If you visit the "Four Floors of Whores", watch out for transvestites (unless you're into that sort of thing, of course). They are plentiful in the area, although most of them seem to hang out on the street rather than in the bars. Street Girls Behind the Hotel 81 are some street girls leaning against the wall. Some are Vietnamese. Some are young and worth trying. S$40. Really quite a sight. |
