Singapore is a strict place after all. Even with the rules there is a question on enforcement. The streets of Geylang crawl with freelance prostitutes almost every night.
The brothels are legal but what they are doing is not. Once in a while the cops come through and sweep up whoever they can catch. Then the chicks go back out into the streets. The same goes for the four floors of whores. That place is filled with chicks, not to mention the others who stand out in front badgering guys who walk past. BRIX is an upscale version of all of the this. If they find a guy there, they ask for one or two hundred bucks.
If not, they go to the clubs like Pontoon later and will usually settle for a lot less. BRIX is basically just a bar. They have some tough guys posted up there who apparently get paid not to smile.
They would fit in well at the worst go go bar in Bangkok. Maybe they pay the same amount or maybe they have a deal with the stone face doormen. Some of them lie and say they are from other places, but if you know what Vietnamese sounds like your bullshit detector will go through the roof as soon as they start talking to their friends.
Chicks from other countries do show up at BRIX though. Sometimes you see Thai or Khmer chicks inside. Occasionally you see Russians or others from the CIS. Once in a while there are even some Latinas inside. What the women at BRIX all have in common is that they ask for a lot of money. I guess since they mostly prey on visiting businessmen working off of expense accounts they can get it. The average cheap charlie coming from a place like Pattaya would probably shit if he knew the going rate.
