An FYI to Shanghai visitors
I rarely post here, but I do read up on this forum once in a while. I was more active back when this site was called wsgforum.
I live in Shanghai now. The Police conduct a major crackdown every year before National Day, October 1. This crackdown is not just prostitution. The police are cracking down on businesses, coming in and inspecting a businesses liscense and visas of any foriegn employee (especially Filipino employees), checking out street vendors, and even cracking down on taxi drivers.
The point is that this is not a good time for mongering in Shanghai. I would wait until after the first week in October. Things will go hack to normal.
