Which option will you choose if you can only pick one?

From the BBC, I'm staying in HK thanks very much.

"Around the world people are getting used to post-lockdown life with vaccines doing the heavy lifting against Covid-19 as restrictions are eased. In China however, a hard elimination policy remains where the pandemic first began.

A person walks into a five-star hotel to ask briefly for directions and ends up in two weeks quarantine because a guest had some coronavirus contact. One crew member on a high-speed train has close contact with an infected person, and a trainload of passengers is sent to quarantine for mass testing...

Welcome to life in the country..."

On the day the border opens fully from China to Hong Kong, and no restrictions returning to China where I live (ie 14 + 7 +..... days quarantine), I will be on the first train to TST, along with hopefully loads of young fresh meat from China to restock all the usual places.

Shenzhen, Dongguan, Huizhou etc is very hard to find safe and reasonable mongering, and nothing to say that will change.

I look forward to being in Hong Kong around JUNE 2022

I pretty much agree with your assessment. Just it may take a bit longer to fully restock TST - the usual networks probably need a few weeks to start working again.

What concerns me more is that it’s now no longer totally crazy to think that prostitution will be outlawed just like in China. In addition with selective enforcement (hit the ones who cannot defend themselves, ie the poor or the foreigners) and a corrective system with technically permanent detention it’s a punter’s nightmare to come true.

Damn your right...too much risk getting held for possibly being infected.  I'll stick to Hong Kong even if border reopens.

China is at least 2x more expensive there (agents take more + more risk from cops). Just hope border opening means more girls coming in.

Yes, try explaining that to the missus!

Mainland officials have been in HK including inspecting the airport procedures.

Maybe mainland - HK - mainland will be allowed soon.

The full opening of China seems to be looking at third quarter 2022, if not sooner.

All depends on what happens with Covid of course and also restricting some entry and internal movement due to the Winter Olympics.

I will keep an ear to the ground on my sources but no-one wants to commit without a public announcement.

Reply 2 for me.

I would be lost in Shenzhen anyway...while with decades in HK, it is HOME.
( I just cannot imagine going back to my birth country either; Just Straight To Hell will do !)
Even Singapore (Regular at Grand Hyatt, Brix) would not be appealing.
Ulaanbaatar would be much more fun...if there were not going through a high stupidity phase now (last 4 years).


And since this summer I have ~ "families" in HK



In fact, one that was supposed to back to Shenzhen (not there for last 5Y) in the coming weeks has decided to longer, a month or two as a starter.

Just hope she noticed I have a right on a finger, in fact SEVERAL ...so she might be confused

Obviously the business is good for her...or there is something else driving that idea....somewhere a little scary.



Btw, I have noticed on the website a substantial increase of "younger" girls (not exactly my cup of coffee) especially in Kowloon side
(very visible on th "Flowers" banner, wasting $ without understanding the dynamics there)
and as I mentioned that to an established one, she replied "Did you notice the ...faces?" ...oops.


Btw, some in HK that lost their jobs try this (very understandable) so with with a regular, she offered me to test the new comer..trying, her neighbor.
She knew it was perfectly OK with me, the decision was mine and whatever the outcome, I would never blamed her.
So ok, and that girl came for round #2.

That was an absolute disaster. That girl were 100% off and WORSE she did not understand that ...JASMINE was doing her A BIG FAVOR to let her play
with one of her regular clients. She even ignored guidance from Jasmine (seriously?? Blind, deaf, brainless, all-the-above)

I think at the end of the day, it is Jasmine wanted to prove to her that ...SHE WAS NOT CUT FOR THAT BUSINESS
and that even with Jasmine's guidance  and an usual regular cool client, she was doomed.
On my side, I was very happy Jasmine felt comfortable enough to do that with me absolutely sure (and rightly) I would not blame her. She was right.
I love my "shrink"


In short there is LOCAL extra supply but quality is not exactly there.

I'm in SZ now and the scene is almost dead...
