Is there a list of FS and HJ MPs
Hi guys,
I have been reading through this forum and got the impression, that unlike BKK, MPs offering extras in HCMC are fairly rare and hit and miss.
Would someone in the know pls contribute a list of reliable / reputable FS MPs with adresses?
I understand that traditional VN MPs always offer a HJ ("What is a massage without a HE")
I don't mind paying well for good service, but don't want to risk diappointment.
I am sure, that a whole generation of first time VN visitors like me would be eternally grateful!
DS

I won't quote them, you can see their comments below.
First to Mutant: Mutant, I consider you a good Forum friend and a fellow value-conscious monger in the same vein as myself. I think Quinten's report was accurately and respectfully written, although I don't fully agree with him. Your response to him tough was a bit harsh (bad day?) in my view. Quinten is right when he writes that he doesn't want to step on our toes and that those in tourist areas should tip what they like. It really does not affect us because we don't monger in those tourist areas. VN can be a difficult and intimidating place at first, even for experienced mongers in Asia.
To Quinten: Thanks for your effort. Yes, 100k is the standard tip in the central area of HCMC for a CIM BBBJ. A bit away from the center it is more like 50 or 60k. In tourist areas in the core center it is whatever tourists and the unadventurous want to pay, 500k, 250k whatever.
The Meaning of a Tip: A tip is not a fee nor a charge. Tips can not be negotiated in advance. That would be a fee or a charge. For example, in the USA, restaurant customers are expected to add a tip to the bill for service. This is typically 15% of the bill. In places where this is already added to the bill, such as at certain hotels and restaurants here in HCMC, it's referred to as a service charge, not a tip. A tip is something added after, for good or acceptable service. You can not negotiate a tip beforehand in order to receive better service. You can negotiate a higher fee or charge and hope to get better service for it.
In Vietnam in general, providers asking for money to perform a service such as HJ or BJ during/after massage is not normal. This may come as a surprise to many of you because you may always be asked. That's because you are not going to 'normal' places but to those 'special' places that cater to tourists and newbies who don't know or understand (or maybe they don't care) what's up.
Added to the above, I don't believe that the girls who are working in these places where the bosses allow (encourage?) them ask exorbitant fees in advance are allowed to keep all this money. I think it is a way for the big cheeses to earn high profits at the expense of the girls, and that's why many of the best providers work at standard places where they actually keep all their tips (100k per customer).
