I checked on HK's law regarding this and posted this :

In summary:
May I just add the following conclusions (please correct me if I'm wrong) based on the laws for punters:
1) Walk ups - perfectly legal so long as there is only one girl present
2) Hotel walk ins - grey area for punter. Girl is engaging in an illegal activity, unless she is a local resident or on some kind of work visa and doing this part time)
3) Street walker pick ups - punter can be busted for soliciting. Girl is engaging in an illegal activities. I guess the definition of soliciting is important. Let the WG make the first move. I'm not sure how the punter can protect himself, audio recording? Vid recording?
4) Massage/ Saunas with HE - Illegal establishments if caught with pants down. Not sure about client, most likely can get away with 'I was lost in the moment, or, I'm not aware and was entrapped'.
5) Pick up pubs - Clearly legal. 3P, 4P etc should be alright at the hotels, amongst consenting adults.
6) Hotel gals with tourist visa is illegal (for the gal) but not sure if the punter is committing a crime.
Reading the articles, the syndicate is charged with 'living on the earnings of the sex worker". So if the punter doesn't take from the WG, I think he is fine! I don't see any reports of customers being arrested.
