Well, like Years ago, Malate / Ermita was known as Manila's Red Light District, though the action was limited to a smaller area of the cities, till the Mayor Lim did his Clean up - and before his term expired, famously even shut down LA Cafe - as the management refused to pay utang no loob for the election kitty ..

And when things were 'smoothened' he did allow it to open back as Manila Bay - not as LA Cafe, lest he lost his face, though once Mayor Erap came in, things were all back to normal.

And in reality, a lot of Filipinos still think Malate / Ermita as Red Light areas, especially if you are foreigner- with the saying "some woman will kidnap you .. " .. alas, the reality is far from the myth ..
