short update on current scene in hcmc:
apocalypse: alive and thumbing, best on friday nights, girl/men ratio about 2:1, some lookers, some average, going price LT USD 50, ST USD 30, please do not pay more!!!
bars in hai ba trung area: samesame as always, prices as AN, girls seem to have done the rotating game recently
streetwalkers: always possible, the ones on dong khoi (on motorbikes) are definitely not recommended!
otherwise ST 10, LT 25
other discos like sped and blue, similar AN, although some girls really have no connection to reality, NEVER pay more than 50 USD LT, ( current salary for a factory worker 50 USD MONTHLY!!!)
when you get asked 70 - 100 USD, just laugh at them, for everyone refusing there will be 5 eager for USD 50!
anybody has more specific infos on the hottoc scene and brothels in saigon?

Crack down on prostitution is going on in VN. So, you guys will have to stay low for a while. Best bets are KTVs adn get the girls out, or girls on motobike, but be extra careful.

The prime minister has asked the police to crack down a week ago.

Was that a general call aimed mainly at the population in general, or is it likely to involve the foreigners' sector as well ? Sometime police make the difference, for economic reasons.

Erik,
It was a PM's decree so regardless of which sector police will go after. Recently, the vice squad busted a group of Korean men were having sex with prostitutes at the hotel after they met at the karaoke parlor in 1st District.

Hello all, so we know something is going on in HCMC. A bad news for a guy like me....who's getting there in a week or so.
So how does it look in HCMC? Is it pretty dead at nightclubs and all? How are the people(girls and expats) reacting to this....policy? Is it still OK to bring girls to hotel rooms? What about the massage parlors? Are they being raided too? Thanks for the info.
-
hairydude,
do not worry you will find enough girls around. AN basically has the same number of girls, as well as HBT bars and massage places. the only difference really is that everything, with the exception of some girlie bars, closes at 12.00. so don't wait too long.
this action is just in order to present a credible face and secure overseas aid in the fight against traficking. etc
the real situation does not change in hcmc

Has anyone tried the Medusa Club behind the Amara Hotel in District 3? Just wondering what to expect to pay and if they have ST rooms on the premises for FS. Thanks in advance.

I know that this isn't the purpose of this discussion group but please could someone tell me where is a good department store in HCM City, preferably in District 1, where I shall be for a day. This is just to buy some regular clothes and shoes (nothing ethnic).
Also a nice big supermarket.
Thanks for all the info. on the shagging; I just want to do a bit of shopping as well this time I'm in HCM City.
-
good ( and expensive) department store is diamond plaza, right smack in the center of town, near cathedral. you might also go to dong khoi street and try and find something in all the little shops that line this street.

Friends,
I'm new here and i must say after reading your messages i feel very excited. Some of you are lucky to have beautiful Vietgirls. Have you, by chance, got pictures of them (esp. those with big tits, my type! :-))? Pls share these photos.
Thanks

had to try something new last night and went to medusa club, behind amara hotel.
had never been there before, but heard a lot about it, so i was of course quite curious.
arrived about 9.00 pm, walked into the ground floor lounge, sat on one of the very comfortable sofas there, waiting for things to happen. first impression - place is very stylish..and very empty.
soon the mamasan approached me asking if i desired company. a few minutes later she brought about 10 girls, that had been hiding upstairs, to my table for selection. 5 - 7's, not such a great menue. anyway found one girl to my liking and asked her to sit down with me.
as this visit was only for reconnoissance i was happy that she could speak reasonable english and explain to me the set up.
here is a quick overview of prices mentioned:
table charge ( that's a charge for you to sit down at a table, without girl) USD 10 ( i think if you decide to sit at the bar this charge will not apply)
girl charge USD 10 + drinks (my girl drank milk (!) which was USD 3.00 a glass, my gin tonic USD 5.00)
if you would like to sit in one of the numerous karaoke rooms upstairs the cost for this is usd 40 ++ (drinks etc)
i think this does not incl any action except groping!
you will be asked pretty bluntly by the waiters or mamasan after a while if you want to take the girl to an amara hotel room, other venues obviously not possible.
cost for room USD 45.00 short time or overnight
Girl ST USD 70, LT 100 USD
might be able to negotiate this!
usual patrons here are asian business men (korea, taiwan, japan etc) so prices tend to be extremely high. girls also additionally expect tips!
it was mentioned that there are more than 100 girls working here, and i realized after a while that, although the place seemed empty, there was constant coming and going into the karaoke rooms. saw some lookers too, but maybe i was too late/early/not looking rich enough to be presented with them.
all in all it looks like an easy and safe sanuk place if you don't mind spending the money. we all know of course from past experiences that high price does not gurantee a high level of service, so i passed on this yesterday and went home alone.

Ratufreddie,
What a coincidence that I decided me too to know a bit more about this place yesterday evening. Maybe we met... I did not even sit down, I just asked the young and tall mamasan about the prices and got the same info as you. As I asked durectly if it was possible to take a girl out and how much, she answered ''of course, no proble.'' ST means 2 hours, 70USD, and overnight 100usd. The only thing I did not know is the 10 USD X 2 for sitting with a girl. She had just mentionned 10 USD for chatting with girl. I did not know also that the hotel have a specail rate of 45usd for the customerse of the club. The reception quotes 60usd for the cheapest room. The few I saw seemed to be really beautifull girls, who seem can be seen walking on the different floors of the hotel, going from the club to the rooms. I might try next time, if the mamasan garanties the service. The more beaautifull the girls are, the worst service is, especially with the Vietnamese.
Whoevers want to have a try please report here about quality of service.

Hi all,
About the department store...cho ben thanh is in district 1 but please do bargain a lot...like more than 50% of the price. I think diamond plaza is nice and have bowling too.
I have a trip planned for the end of december...4 days in thailand and then to vietnam. Anyone want to meet up...email me.

Fire at Blue Disco.
According to several news sources, there was a big fire broke out at the Blue Disco and quickly spread to other floors at the International Trading Center in HCM City. There were 54 people died and many injuries and the number could climb higher. So for now, if the Blue Disco is on anyone's list then start to look for other place to pick up chicks. Having fun and enjoy your trip guys.

I hear about a 3 days closedown of entertainment places to mourn for the 100 victims or so of the Trade center fire.
Back on the subject of Medusa club, when I saw the scene the other day, and the pretty young girls with decollete, on their hight hell shoes, I felt I definitelly should have to come back with 100 USD in my pocket, on my next trip. Now that I am in Bangkok, I have reasonned with myself : for the amount of money that it would cost me in Medusa, I can have 3 superb Thai girls from the best gogo bars of Nana Plaza. As beautifull and young as the Viet girls of Medusa, speaking more english, and, I am sure, with a quality of service more garantied than in Medusa...
