      Indians usually wear sarong especially non-Singaporean Indians like the ones in the video. It’s a traditional bottom for them. Even Singaporean Indians wear them sometimes. Cheap sarong in Singapore usually have that pattern so maybe bcos those pants have almost the same pattern, he thought it’s a pants-like sarong. Singapore is a multicultural country so everyone respects each other traditional outfit. I as a Singaporean don’t see a problem with his outfit.

    First time in Singapore way back early 90’s my friend toured us around and for novelty brought us to this place to see the seedy side of the City for that shock factor.
    Them rooms have trash bins and peeking to each you’ll notice the bins overflowing with tissue papers and condoms scattering around the surrounding floor. The haggish whores were like old like museum pieces and dirty as their building exterior.
    Those patronizing this place must have stomachs of steel and a resolution of a suicidal man.
    This video was taken in the morning. We toured it at night and the place was like a refugee camp brimming to burst with long queues mostly bangalla workers and Ah Peks.
    Only someone with a death wish would cater to this place.

      Because it's similar; Mac Donald's is fast food to satisfy one's stomach on the go. Another is to satisfy one's testerones in 20 minutes on the go. The only difference is the former involves swallowing and the latter, pumping. Input and output.

    In the 70s, there was a lowest of the low class of comfort women, really bottom of the heap. They were called bumboat girls & they move around in boats to solicit customers from ships berthed in the harbour. In the looks dept, they cant earn a living on land

    Prostitution has never been legalised in Singapore. It is the oldest profession in the world. So you ask why these red light districts still exist. My answer - to satisfy the sexual needs of lonely men. The police are closing one eye to keep sex crimes in check. Can you imagine what would happen if they are no red light districts in Singapore? Think about it!

      Exactly, the police are keeping this in balance and controlled at the same time.
