HF, I think you're right. I've never heard any of the girls talk dirty and all seem very courteous and polite. I asked my "Yizar" how to say "blow job" and "DATY" in Myanmar zaga; At first she was...

Ollie Ggc, I know of one instance where a person's visa application was rejected by one Embassy but approved by another enroute. So you can try your luck again in BKK and apply for the visa there....

HF .. welcome to ISG. I was in Myanmar at the same time as you in December. Pity you didn't know about ISG then or it would have been great to meet up and explore the scene together. This place...

Sandyhop, yes, keep us updated on whether that number still works. There's one girl from that mamasan who I really liked ... she used to do acrobatic cowgirls on me after a thorough BBBJ which I...

Some very valid points, there, Old Thai Hand and if there was anything I could personally do to change the way things are in Burma, I'd do it immediatey. My affinity and love for the country and its...

Van Velen, this post I made some time ago may help to answer some of your queries about mongering in Burma. Prostitution is illegal in Burma and very much an underground activity but the authorities...

If you're referring to changing USD$200 to FEC's, the answer to that is no. That rule was abolished around 2003. FEC's are still legal tender in Myanmar however, but don't touch them. If you pay in...

I've not seen public wifi access in Myanmar in all my travels. The Internet (as in World Wide Web) is fairly new to Myanmar. The first public internet cafe was opened in Rangoon only in 2003. The...

You can get a day pass in to Tachilek (the Burma side of the border at Mae Sai) for $5 USD. You do get another 30 day visa stamp when you reenter Thailand, though, according to the latest edition of...

Hi Jb, this used to be the case but not anymore. A few locals now have mobile phones too so I guess the authorities aren't as suspicious about them as they used to be. Note that you won't be able to...

Hi Concarne, this is not possible. If you go from Chiang Rai and cross at the Mae Sai/Tachilek border, you'll need to catch a flight from there to Mandalay and beyond. You can only go overland from...

No problems, I've never been to Cambodia, but I hope the info I've provided here will be useful. I'll list the discos that I know of where you can very easily find girls but there isn't a hot zone or...

Depart Dubai 5:55pm, Arr BKK...
