Szphoenix: A hairy incident in Sha Tsui that I almost did not lived to tell
Szphoenix did us a great favor by spilling the truths, however humbling or ugly. This girl seemed to get pissed off at him. She wanted to extract the money and exact revenge...
Szphoenix: 7 A hairy incident in Sha Tsui that I almost did not lived to tell
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes. It was that bad. The outcome could have been very different and you would be reading my story from a newspaper. I am a seasoned monger. I used to post under a different handle.
The past Wednesday I found myself back at my usual hunting ground Sha Tsui. Even though Sha Tsui is only a shadow of it's formal self, I still prefer it over Seibu due to it being 30 rmb taxi fare closer to where I live, the girls somewhat less rush and the mamasan definitly less pushy. For the last couple of weeks the LE has been rounding up the girls so there were no more than 20 girls around that night. After a couple of pass I was about to give up when I saw a very pretty girl sitting by the door of a message parlor. The message parlor is next to a dental office, which itself was used to be a message parlor. From past experience the pricing structure at those message parlors is usually $90 for the room (which can be negotiated down to $70), and $150 for the girl. Some girls will asked for $200 if the price was not negotiated before hand. Sometimes I prefer the message girl over the BBS girl because the room is much cleaner and in general I get 1 to 1. 5 hours instead of 20 to 45 mins.
It was the first time I was at that particular sauna. A lineup was formed and the girl at the door was picked. In retrospect I should not have chosen her because she was hiding at the back instead of the others who were actively presenting their wares. But I am a sucker for beauty. I was then taken to a nearby upperstair message parlor that was also used by several other MPs. That MP has a residential entrance and is more hidden away from the LE. I had been there many times so there was no alarm. The papasan asked for the $70+$200 upfront but I insisted to pay afterwards as usual. I was trying to be nice to the girl by mentioning that the $70 was for the house and the $200 for the girl. The papasan left somewhat annoyed.
Off went her clothes and I was pleasantly surprised by a pair of 32D on a petite body. But that was the end of good things to come for that evening. She would not shower, do a BJ or kiss me anywhere. She was intended to finish in 20 minutes. One thing I hate the most is being rushed. So I offered to pay her $400 total if she stayed for the full 1. 5 hours (and stop rushing me). She said she would stay only for an hour for the original $270. It went back and forth, and nothing was settled. 35 minutes into the session I had enough of her. Even though I had not finished, I told her I was leaving and would only pay her $270. She demanded $400 and threathened to call her papasan. I retreated quickly into the bathroom with my belongings. Damn the hot water wasn't working so I just put my clothes back on. When I got out of the bathroom she was talking to someone on the phone. I left $270 on the bed but she angrily held on to my clothes and wouldn't let me go. A few insulting words were exchanged. I never use force on a woman but nobody would have blamed me if I unpried her fingers from my clothes. I was glad I didn't because' the thugs that were about to show up would have greatly disagreed.
10 minutes passed and I was only able to make out of the room into the corridor. I was talking loudly so that other people in the passage parlor can hear me. In came the papasan (I believe, I am not good at faces) and 2 thugs. They asked me to go back to the room to discuss (NEVER EVER DO THAT! ) The difference between triads and thugs is the triads can hunt you down, torture you in ways unimaginable and make you disappear without a trace, but they do it for a good reason. The thugs are uncontrollable and unpredictable. If I were in Mongkok I am sure the girl would be admonished but these three guys came with only one mission. To extract the money from me. They would not listen to reason and the situation escalated into violence within one minute. The thug on my left hammer my head with his fist. He did so by jumping up so that he could apply the full weight of his body in his strike. The thug on the right slapped me hard. He then snapped a bamboo broom and pointed the rugged edge towards me. The papasan threatened to leave me with his two buddies. The situation was turning downhill really fast.
I was surprising unrattled and composed. I shouldn't but that probably saved me. Principle and dignity weren't important anymore. I calmly paid the $130. The girl told them I had more money on me (did I mention that she was evil? ! ) but the thugs did nothing more. If I had been any more defiance the outcome would have been very difference, and if I showed any weakness they would have emptied the 10k on me (and possibly did more to silence me). They quickly left. Nobody came to my resue except at the very end when an old cleaning lady showed up and scorned them.
Okay guys. I know I did a million things wrong but no lectures here. Play safe.
Afterthoughts.
I thought message parlor should be saver than BBS. I was wrong. In the future I will avoid girls with papasan and will not let the girls use the cellphone to ask for help. Also a couple of benjamin is not worth dying for.

Global Doctor - English Speaking Doctor(s)
“Global Doctor” in China
In a recent incident when a friend of mine was in dire need of medical help, while we were in Chang Ping, we learnt the hard way that:
1) the hotel you stay at may not have a listed doctor on call – in our case, it was the best hotel in town – Hui Hua and yet, they suggested the local hospital which may not be good for everyone. Further, the duty manager of the hotel was initially less than helpful and needed to be prompted to come out with better support to get us to hospital in the Hui Hua Hotel MPV.
2) When you do get to the hospital, if your Chinese (mandarin or local dialect ) is bad, the doctor may have difficulty diagnosing your ailment and you may not understand what he is trying to tell you too! A translator going along will be helpful only if he or she is able to explain clearly both ways.
Because we were careful not to be treated for the wrong ailment, we made a conscious decision to thank the doctor and leave for another option that we were lucky to know about through a smart local contact in the hotel industry.
Global Doctor appears to be an Australian linked practice in China which has clinics in the following locations:
a) Beijing +86 10 65281104
b) Shenyang +86 24 24330678
c) Chengdu +86 28 85259928
d) Dongguan +86 769 22030011
e) Chongging +86 23 89038837
f) Changsha +86 731 5230250
g) Tianhe, Guangzhou +86 20 38841452
h) All China response center +86 10 84569191
Why Global Doctor?
Basically, a private practice with English Speaking Doctors for outcalls and in-clinic consultation when you need it most. The telephone operator / receptionist speak English at all these numbers too!
There is nothing worst than being treated for the wrong ailment especially if you end up in a Chinese public hospital and are seriously ill.
The Out Call we were quoted for the Doctor to visit from Dongguan to Chang Ping was all of 1500 CNY excluding consultation and medicine. It’s by no means cheap but, worth every yuan when you are down and out and need a competent doctor with the ability to speak to you and understand your situation.
We had a private car drive us to and from from Chang Ping to Dongguan for 250 yuans return. Each way, the journey took us about 40 minutes. The consultation and medicine came to 700 yuans, a trite expensive yet worth it, the patient concluded!
It is best if you travel at all to China to have travel insurance cover inclusive of medical cover and evacuation. For sure, the expenses would be nicely covered.
Earlier, we had paid 2 yuans in the Chang Ping hospital, jumped the queue and came away without knowing what the doctor was trying to tell us accurately.
Further, we had held up the doctor’s consultation of others in semi-public and ended up less than willing to go ahead with his suggestion to have a blood test and further scans (that’s what we thought he said).
Now, we know.
If we have a more acute situation in future (where life is at stake), we would call the appropriate Global Doctor number and get the doctor to meet us at the nearest emergency hospital at whatever cost to ensure that we have the best chance of survival!
For less urgent situations, a drive to the nearest clinic would do the trick if you want an English speaking doctor.
Shanghai Daily report of scam
As a reminder - NEVER EVER GO WITH A TOUT!!!!
NEVER be lead to a place you did not decide upon yourself unless you know it is legit like a tested sauna, be aware of your surroundings and always be cautious of being set up!
Also, the Teahouse scam where the management overcharges you and threatens to beat your ass to a pulp unless you pay up is still alive and well.
The following is reported in the Shanghai Daily:

Sibling act go to jail of sex, extortion scam
By Chen Qian 2008-3-17
A BROTHER and sister were jailed after extorting 57,500 yuan (US$8,099) from a foreigner after offering sex services to him.
The Zhabei District People's Court has sentenced Xiao Fangming and his sister Xiao Fangfang to 18 months in prison. They had returned the money to the victim after getting caught by police.
The court said the Xiao siblings organized a prostitute to offer sex services to the victim, whose identity was not revealed. They extorted money from the victim with another accomplice after the prostitute left, the court said.
According to the court, Xiao Fangfang chatted up the victim along Nanjing Road Pedestrian Mall and took him to a hotel on December 14, 2006.
A prostitute was waiting in the room and they had sexual intercourse. After she left, the brother and other men rushed into the room, the court said. They threatened him and extorted money from him.
The victim surrendered his credit card and password. Xiao withdrew 57,500 yuan from the card immediately after leaving the hotel and divided the money with his sister and another accomplice.
Police caught the gang in January when Xiao's accomplices were caught for another crime. Xiao surrendered to police after learning that and advised his sister to do likewise.

They suggest using the following precautions:

2. Make sure the driver's information is visible in front of the passenger seat.
3. Make sure that the driver in the picture is the same person as the one driving your cab.
4. NEVER take rides with cab drivers that are trying to solicit you outside of their cab (street side, airport, etc.)
Never go with touts for anything! This includes snatch, taxis, hotels, tea houses, bars, restaurants, etc.
Use caution!
