Check out the photo of the girls covering their faces in what looks like a KTV or club. Food for thought. Still think unlicensed prostitution is allowed ?

Denial in the face of so much evidence. Well, up to you. Don't get arrested though. If you are local, they cannot deport you, but I'm not sure what the punishment for local vice is.

Enforcement is arbitray, up to AV. They definitely won't be raiding the IR hotels, and as long as the FLs are not too blatant, I'm sure they'll close one eye. I'm sure many of the guests will be bringing high class escorts ( aka prostitutes ) to their rooms anyway.

Prostitution is not legal, strictly speaking -- unless it is in licensed zones (Geylang, Johore St, etc.). Sometimes, the gov closes one eye and allows vice activities to go on. But they can stop it anytime they like - even in health centres, KTVs, etc.

One reason why Macau casinos are so successful is because Macau is teeming with working ladies everywhere and drugs are easily available - and the Macau authorities don't give a damn about it. Interesting to see how Marina and Sentosa IRs compete with the casinos of Macau.

Well, let's say I'm somehow involved with all these but not with the offending side

Just FYI...
H 81 business is definitely affected. Those affected branches have lowered their overnight rates to counter the aftermath of these raids.

So call "special promo"...Kovan $89 for weekday and $109 for weekend per night.

Who will want to stay overnight as these hotel? Walk past already can hear the ah ah sound.

Don't worry bros, how long can AV keep raiding? They are showing off their power and will stop soon. Those guys no need to rest and take annual leave? Come on! They are civil servants and they will be tired in no time. Mentally weak folks! Haha!

They are doing this to deter everyone. I doubt they will bring u back to the station if u r caught with freelance. If yes, probably questioning and u won't need anyone to bail u.

As for those SMS retain by OKT, those are useless. They can't charge u just because they got ur SMS saying u want to bed their FL. Haha! If that is call evidence, SG will be super dumb. We are a democratic country despite a lot will disagree with me

They can keep up the raids for as long as they want. You don't have to worry about the AV getting tired, because the people who makes the decisions to raid are not the ones doing the actual raid, so they don't heck care about how tired the AV are. Anyway, it's not as if they have to run 10km to catch the hookers.

Just look at what happened to GL. It is a freaking ghost town now, thanks for an entire year of raids. These raids can be enough to kill off alot of activities. Who wants to bonk FL if they have to keep worrying about getting caught ? Which OKT wants the trouble of having to keep replacing their girls, and worse, risk getting caught themselves ?

And for your info, SMS and emails are admissible as evidence in court. In the unlikely event that you are charged in court, SMS are acceptable evidence. This is not unique to Singapore, so I would advise you not to be so dismissive of things you don't know anything about.

no greyish area lah. it is a well-known and oft quoted law : that prostitution is not illegal here in Sg. What is illegal is pimping - living off the earnings of prostitutes, and solicitating for business in public.

not sometimes good mood then suka suka allow, not in good mood then suka suka don't allow.

Singapore only wants to attract "quality" & "high net-worth" gamblers, ie; high-rollers. They will bend & twist the laws they made up themselves for them. So of course they're not gonna be bothering that secretive Chinese or Ang mo billionaire who paying thousands of dollars a night for the girls he's chosen for his stay here. After all, they want to collect the GST from all the branded goods the girls will be buying with that money. As for his drug habit, well as long as it's not obvious & they don't know about it, why rock the boat, right?

As for the rest of the riff-raff, the hell with you, you can all eat shit & die...

In the end, in Singapore, it's all about the money. Who pays wins. Do you think they really care about the average Singaporean's gambling problems? So much so they set up a hotline & a gambling addiction service & all? What they're really worried about it the potential bad press that the casinos might generate from the problems they'll inevetiably create. And bad press for a newly-started business is not a good thing. Besides, they're not prepared to handle a prison population explosion & the resulting increase in prison budget. They might have to increase GST again just to cope...

If they really cared, they wouldn't wait until we open casinos to do it. We've had so many more sophisticated forms of gambling already in operation long before that. Not to mention the various gambling dens...
