Dhaka

I will post this here as this is the only really active thread on Bangladesh, and everyone should see it.

The government is likely to change in a few weeks. The likely replacement party is the BNP, which has a sizeable very conservative segment. I expect there to be mild "crack down" on prostitution until the new party can get their new bribery system in place.

This will not affect "foreigners" themselves, but may affect a few of the more visible places of entertainment, if only temporarily.

What will be affected is personal contacts and independent suppliers that are not on the bribery list. They will be made examples of how the new government is cleaning things up. Now is the time to protect your personal contacts by disclosing them only to persons you have had previous contact with via pm. If someone new wants you to share via pm, a personal interview first is the safest. Personally, that is the way I ALWAYS do it.

We mongers are not the only people that read this board.

All should be back to normal within a couple of months after the elections.

Am I the only monger in Dhaka with a camera phone?

Most girls love to get their picture taken fully clothed, especially when the request is preceded with a compliment about how beautiful they are.

Most girls will also allow nude or semi-nude pics if their face is obscured or not in the pic. Again, if preceded by a comment about how absolutely beautiful their body is.

I sometimes like to see what I am missing here in Dhaka. It inspires me to new heights of desire, in a manner of speaking.

Come on. Let's get those pictures posted!

Hi Larbo, Roxy and other Mongers,

I have been walking in front of the National assembly (Manik Mia Avenue) for couple of weeks. Have seen some very good quality prs. They gathers in the Khamar bari corner of the Corridor. You will see them standing alone or with their friends. Proceed toward them and make eye contact. Rest you know!

Happy mongering.

Happy mongering.[/QUOTE]I was told of this area by one of my friends here, but it is far from where I live, and I am too lazy to check it out. Not having seen it for myself, I did not mention it on this board. I have been by there during the day, and always wondered where they take you to do the deed. The area doesn't look too bad as far as housing goes, as I didn't see any shacks. I will probably check it out some night when I am free and post a report.

Any idea what time they start to gather? I like to get the deeds done early.

Last week I was in Dhaka and stayed at Purbani Hotel. I was surprised to know that they don't allow guest after 5 pm although they claim their hotel as 4 star. I tipped one the hotel staff and he informs me that they could not manage girls in the hotel. So I passed the night only with a beer can. Shame. So fellow mongers, if want hotel based mongering then beware of Purbani.

They wanted the building refurbished and run as a BD owned / operated 4/5 star hotel. If that is true, then it would be a good reason for the "No Guests" policy. In a political climate like exists here in BD, the opposition party would be all over any hint of impropriety.

The reason Starwood Hotels and Resorts (the parent company of Sheraton) moved out was the disagreement with the government about the particular issue you mentioned. The government owned 49% of Sheraton from the very beginning and now owns all 100% of Ruposhi Bangla after Starwood Hotels moved out. And also Ruposhi Bangla has kept the 5 star status as Sheraton did too.

As far as the topic of the policy of "No Guests" in Purbani, IMHO I think it has to do something with the fact that this country is a Muslim country not political. I hope this would clarify your question Larbo.

Thanks Kid.

I never was too clear on that Sheraton to BD transfer. Just knew it happened. Also, I didn't know that Purbani was government owned.

So, we have two hotels with government involvement that are not girl friendly, and at least two that are, Pan Pacific Sonargon and Westin. You have to be very careful and proper in the Westin, but I have never had a problem. And as we all know, Sonargon has a well developed and friendly system of openly helping you get a girl to your room. Two very different policies in the same Muslim country.

So, maybe if the government owns all or a share of the hotel, then it is not girl friendly. I can understand that in this political climate in a Muslim dominated country. I have no idea, but, let me guess, now, that Pan Pacific Sonargon and Westin have no government ownership, and that is what allows them to be girl friendly, each in their own way.

This is just speculation on my part, but the clues are adding up.

Interesting discussion, and at least partly on topic, as mongers need to know which hotels are friendly, and which aren't.

Larbo[/QUOTE]Yes Larbo, the government has no part in Westin and Sonargaon, the parent company of Westin in Dhaka is a Bangladesh company though which is fully privately owned. Though Bangladesh is not a very conservative Muslim country any government owned entities are subject to some form of Islamic regulation, atleast what I know from my knowledge. So maybe that is the case in Purbani.

Useful inputs from other users might shed some more light on this issue.

I also believe this discussion is on topic as you said, mongers need to know the attitudes of the different hotels here in BD.

I hope my answer was helpful, atleast to some part.

Hotel Purbani is not a govt. Owned hotel. There may be other reasons for not allow girls in rooms or there may be other secret routes to land girls in rooms which I failed to find then.

Anyway, anybody has any idea about Hotel 71?

Where I can find body to body massage with happy ending in Dhaka? Please let me know. I really need it.

Leaving Dhaka for the month of December. I will be back the first of the new year. Won't be checking the board much when I am gone, so,"Happy Holidays" to all.
