Is the Diamond Lake Hotel guestfriendly?

[Seeko]

One thing that puzzled me in your post is the references to JJ / Apple. JJ was closed a while ago... So, has it opened again?! If so, is it in the same location as it used to be?

Appreciate your kind words of encouragement.

As for JJ, you missed the discussion in August 2018. There was even a post in RoD:

http://www.internationalsexguide.nl/...00#post2213700

Basically, it moved to a new place in Insein township. That's why I mention it as "JJ / Apple". In case, the older taxi drivers don't know Apple KTV, so then, you would tell them, new JJ.

You can readily search Google for Diamond Lake Hotel (W424+72 Insein, Myanmar (Burma)) or Apple Bar KTV (W424+62 Insein, Myanmar (Burma)). I attached their business card, in case you need to show to taxi driver. Honestly, just call GrabTaxi, since you'll have exact GPS.

Enjoy,

Seeko.

Thanks for the great post! We need more informative posts like that on this thread. I haven't been back to Yangon in a while, but expect to return during the coming three months and to produce my own update then.

One thing that puzzled me in your post is the references to JJ / Apple. JJ was closed a while ago. There was extensive discussion about it on this thread, and I verified it on the ground myself. So, has it opened again?! If so, is it in the same location as it used to be? This is important for me, because it was the only place I really enjoyed in Yangon. After the demise of JJs, there wasn't much point in going there anymore.

Going to Yangon. Will be there October 11 to 16. Will post my experience.

... There are no more independent contractors or FLs at Emperor, JJ / Apple, or Pioneer.... Off-work from KTV, Emperor, or JJ / Apple... Seeko.

Speaking Bamar — or Shin, Karen, Mon, Kachin, whatever others — and it's a whole different game. YMMV.

The Emperor for point and click 'dating'.

Maybe from your perspective (looking down at this whole business with a disdain and discouraging mongering men; based on my read of your posts in this thread) that it's a meat market. However, the girls do have a choice or say in the matter, I. E. They don't necessarily have to stand in line to be picked. Even after being selected to sit down, they can then negatively interact with the guy and be rejected after a drink or song; unlike in a brothel, oily, or soapie, but similar to freelancers in bars and nightclubs. This is from years of observations and comments from the ladies. By the way, if these fashion show walkers see a nice or decent customer come in, they would rushed to him to be picked. How's that for turn around of fair play where the punter is being looked upon as a slab of meat by dozens of girls, giggling amongst themselves, whispering about his physical and facial features, etc. Same with freelancers in bars and discos.

Oh, and, I never said that my cutie worked at Emperor. So, don't assume that I can only obtain such flowers in those dens.

Since first arriving to Myanmar in 2005, and seeing how things have loosened up in some ways, girls dragged into this business are still coming from remoter and impoverished backgrounds where the time lag hasn't caught up.

I was in Burma in 70's, 80's, and 10's. I can converse in local tongue, have Rangoon friends, stayed in various districts or townships in greater Yangon, walked through the city for hours, taken the bus, train, and motorbike (which are banned in central Yangon, thus, I got far out there), and prayed at pagoda, so I believe I have gotten a pretty good lay of the land. You're right about the villagers flocking to a metropolitan for an opportunity to earn money (not just to sell their bodies, but also for regular jobs). It's not just in Myanmar, but I've observed this phenomenon in most Southeast Asian countries. Unless the world economy suddenly equalized living standards and wage disparity across the board, urban centers will be supported by a pool of low income laborers from rural areas. But, I digress.

What I want to say is that not every sex provider in Yangon, Bangkok, Saigon, Vientiane, Phnom Penh, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, or Manila is "being dragged into this business". I've learned from extensive testimony that many are locals from the city within. They all have different reasons for choosing (not being forced) to be a sex worker or borderline job, such as masseuses, hostesses, karaoke singers, show dancers, club models, or dating gigs. From as serious as hospitalized family member, as noble as school tuition, to as frivolous as the latest iPhone model. Sigh.

About technology, I've stayed in a roadside hamlet a few weeks ago in upper Myanmar, and there are mobile shops, 4 G / LTE service, satellite TV, and QR-code payment-accepting mini-marts and tea shops. In some way, these places skipped the "time lag" and fast-forwarded into modern or near future era, whereas my home bank just started to issue credit cards with chips or my house broadband is finally going above 20 Mbps. SMH.

Anyway, to the potential visitors, don't worry about G's broad generalizations, check out Yangon (and the mongering scene) as it is still changing and modernizing, before the city stops being a "novelty".

I As I stated, YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary, in case you aren't familiar with the standard acronyms in this site), which means everyone has different r local traditions .

EMMV (Everyone's Mileage May Vary). The Emperor for point and click 'dating'. Glad that works for you. Since first arriving to Myanmar in 2005, and seeing how things have loosened up in some ways, girls dragged into this business are still coming from remoter and impoverished backgrounds where the time lag hasn't caught up. Sure, you'll find the exception, but really this place is for the novelty value only.

You must be going with the veteran and experienced ones. The fresh things don't deviate from their script.

I beg to differ, as I have learned that sometimes it's easier with new players to ask for long sleepovers, as they like rest comfortably and later explore the city for new experience. On the other hand, half the time, those providers long in business tend to stick to their schedule and routine, such as one shot and out the door. I guess, they got jaded by tedium, which is understandable.

As I stated, YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary, in case you aren't familiar with the standard acronyms in this site), which means everyone has different experience. I'm offering mine. You can acknowledge, but don't counter without offering your own experience. (By the way, your historical posts in this thread are mostly about demeaning other punters or providing useless "advices," so please stop detracting from the purpose, mission and spirit of these forums.).

Keep it real. These girls won't be caught dead in the light of day with a foreigner, much less at a pagoda. Unless you are so desperate for female company (or cruelly selfish) don't try to put a girl in a shameful position.

Yes, I am "keeping it real. " And, no, I'm not that "desperate for female company", as I stayed in last night (yes, a happening Friday), catching up on Netflix shows.

By the way, you don't know me, so you can't assume that I can't go out in the daytime with an LT or normal non-working girl on regular dates. I have much respect for local traditions and follow their cultural norms in any country. For example, many Myanmar single ladies still live with their parents and must obey curfew of 8 pm or even 7 pm, so I watch the clock to ensure my normal meets don't get in trouble.

For proof, I have attached a photo of a nice sushi lunch (with an excellent view of Inya Lake) I had 2 days ago at Myanmar Plaza with a cutie. Meta data will confirm location.

Oh, and, you should learn how to properly edit and quote. I'm doing it on a mobile phone, so it can't be that hard; to ensure ease of reading for audience.

I just had a thought. Maybe you are responding in such negativity to troll me. Brilliant! You got me. Yep, I'm wasting my rest time for this post. SMH, maybe I should have stayed quiet all these years and not bother to return to the forums. Sigh.

I usually offer to pay for taxi or call Grab to their home, so they can release their waiting driver.

Other offerings are breakfast, lunch, shopping, city tour, pagoda visit, etc. I am sure you all have your own ideas.

As Myanmar's current inflation is over 11% (Aya Bank website), every price has increased. About double in last 5-6 years. Some items seem same price, but only due to shifting to local factory or low quality import from Thailand and China. Yes, those factories made different QA standard products for various export destinations. I have seen similar brand packages from Bangkok and Yangon, and the price is same after currency conversion, but taste and quality isn't. Anyway, I digress. Apologies.

Thus, the standard fare for Yangon service providers have double to 80 k - 100 k kyats. This assumes a freelancer. Obviously, you'll pay surcharge to house / papasan / mamasan. It can be 30 k - 50 k MMK. So, expect to pay 130 k (80+50) for low end fashion show girl at Emperor, 150 k (100+50) for high end model fashion walker at Emperor. There are no more independent contractors or FLs at Emperor, JJ / Apple, or Pioneer. Therefore, you'll pay 50 k as flower tip money (or barfine in Thailand / Philippines) to takeout. Since the girl gets some of that flower money, she can deduct that in negotiation or forgo it, I. E. 30 k barfine.

As for the ladies' price of 80 k - 100 k, they usually don't budge from it, because their mamasans control the price point. Some mamasans take half of it, due to providing room & board, transportation, mobile, and security (or rather protection from LE). Some fashion show managers are ok with their share of flower tip, since the ladies have their own house / apartment and ferry / taxi.

Similar set up is at JJ / Apple.

Of course, maybe you are skillful, suave, young, or handsome, and can bargain down. But why, for only a few bucks, since it's still lower than ST in Bangkok / Pattaya.

As for Club 5 at Park Royal and Nice Bar at Sedona, I haven't really investigated, but I believe that there's a house fee for the ladies to work there. And, maybe hidden mamasans, so no true FL is there. I heard that the ladies got penalty or fine if they didn't show up for "work". Ouch.

Outside of Pioneer, Brave, Vibe, and Myanmar Plaza (Fuse, Eclipse, and Harry's), you may get offers from taxi drivers acting as papasans. I have not fielded them out yet. By the way, you won't find "official" working FLs in local bars and nightclubs anymore, but you can encounter bottle bunnies / rats, club's plants, and obvious P4 P.S. Off-work from KTV, Emperor, or JJ / Apple. You can try your luck if you spot them, but it'd be like hitting on normal chicks. Or, bring your own barfine, buy a bottle, share with her friends or new friends, and enjoy. Just like in Thailand and Philippines.

For those arguing / complaining about high taxi prices near bar / club exits, I highly recommend Grab App. You don't need local SIM card to set it up, if you already have an account elsewhere and your own SIM number roams in Myanmar and can receive call / SMS / mobile data. I arrange for pickup while inside a place and as I walk out with a girl, I just tell her and the taxi drivers around that I have already arranged my own car. If you don't speak Burmese, just show them your smartphone with Grab App. They understand that and turn away to easier marks.

And, I do not recommend walking away with a girl from an obvious place of selling girls, such as Emperor, because there is police vehicle (s) down the street waiting to catch the girl for prostitution. So, call GrabTaxi or get in a taxi, even if your hotel is a block away.

Last note: most Yangon providers are expecting one shot for the price above, whether it's an hour or overnight. And, most overnighter end at daybreak (due to using their sponsored taxi / ferry truck), so better to end your party early and go back to your hotel soon, unlike Thailand / Philippines, where you can dance till sunrise. As always, YMMV, and depending on your negotiation skill or charm, you can turn an ST into LT for same price.

I usually offer to pay for taxi or call Grab to their home, so they can release their waiting driver. And, gain few more hours of their time. Other offerings are breakfast, lunch, shopping, city tour, pagoda visit, etc. I am sure you all have your own ideas.

Enjoy,

Seeko.

This place have many shortcomings, but last time I found a nice SYT this was the second visit from my first trip to Yangon.

Didn't know if the price have rise more now. On my recently visit, one "fashion model" charged 150000 for short time, crazy. Refused without thinking although she has pretty face and very nice body.

And finally got a very pretty, young and fresh "fashion" lady for 130000 all night until 12 h next day. Well maybe I had overpaid but this lady I could "smell" her innocent, claimed just started work for 10 days and could believed. Very nice body. Natural C tits and sexy ass. Very sweet.

Normal price should be insist between 80000 or 90000 all night.

It was said just not long time ago, was just 30000--40000.

LOL at Masterfumongers report. Its obviously true but things shouldn't turn our that way.

The only place I saw was Emperor, next time ill ask how to get to the other places. I thought it was amazing in many ways. All the girls are 18-19, most are cute, 5 foot tall or less (some 5 foot tall in heels) and less than 100 pounds. 100 girls inaide.

First night, 10 k entry for a beer and peanuts. Surrounded by girls yelling Hello, with the phone flashlights illuminating their faces. I picked one and paid 3 k for her beer. 5 k taxi, 25 k st hotel and 130 k price. She had a Bush and was cool. Crazy kissing and BBBJ.

Hi, Mrkuya.

Sorry to say this but, 130 k for a ST? She was one of the "fashion lady" doing shows on the stage?

Even she was this price was too high. If she was not the fashion lady, 80 k should be fine for all night.

Taxi 5 k was also high price. You can read some report before on this thread than got a reasonable price structure.

Also I really recommend don't do BBFS with Emperor girls. Some of them may have disease or even HIV so they don't care and tired to do any services.

Happy hunting.

[Sidtip]

She wanted to stay. So we watched a movie together and then fell asleep in each others arms. It was really nice.


And that is my Yangon trip report for 2019. I had a great time. I really like Yangon.

I don't know, but I like it and I really like a particular girl I found there. There are probably a lot more like her. You just have to look around. And for me, right now as I wrote this I feel something. A real feeling that I have for this little FL

Brilliant story. Made my eyes well up as I thought back to the one that I let get away in another country at another time. Tried twice, unsuccessfully, to get her a visa to come here and ended it for the silliest reason ever. I will remember her forever. Falling in love can happen fast sometimes.

2nd I arrived. I was earlier and took the elevator with many. Fewer inside as they were getting ready, an ugly indian girl was pestering me. But I found a cute one. I went as big as I saw and she was not big. Really sweet until hotel where she was shy. Would not kiss and would not BJ, but then put my uncovered cock in her snapper and I couldn't resist. Crazy screams and squirming. Combination of pleasure and pain. I blew it on her belly and she had this shocked look like she never saw that before or expected it. Only other bareback option is inside. So that really made me wonder what experience she had if any.

Hi Kurisu2014, I am sorry it has been so long for my response to your post. I am still on the road and can't seem to find much time for writing or reading reports.

First, let me state that I am still a newbie when it comes to Yangon venues and although I have visited Yangon 3 times once in 2008 before the thaw, then in Oct 2018, and recently this May 2019, I have only visited 3 nightspots in total: Club 5, Emperor, and Pioneer, so I don't think I am qualified to state categorically whether Club 5 prices are reasonable compared to other night spots in Yangon. Or more importantly whether there are better night spots with higher quality girls. That said, I have no problem paying Club 5 prices (130,000 k ($86) to 140,000 k ($93) for ST because this is the current going price in Club 5. It would be different if a particular girl in Club 5 asked for more. Then I would think she was being unreasonable, and I would pass on her.

Hello, Natty.

I agree most of your parts.

I have been to Yangon 4 times. It is the truth that I found the most gorgeous girl in Club 5. Although with high level price. She was really a stunner in face or body and age aspects. She can compete any stunning ladies I saw or had in Thailand, China Korea or Vietnam.

But I found the talents almost don't change in this club. Also 90% of them I didn't found have better quality than other cheaper spots.

It says Yangon will change the law to allow Hotels to open legal casinos for foreigners from May 2019. As Vietnam has already benefited a lot from gambling there such as casinos in HCMC and the nang.

May there will be some new and "higher level" entertaining places open.
