If you are a visitor and not a regular at the bar scene, how would you know a girl is underage?
So you pop into a bar for a drink, have a few, then expected to know if a girl (first of all, is a girl, then is under or over 18 years old [if that is the age].
I was in Manilla staying at this hotel and 2 young Americans were having a great time, then I didn't see them for about a week, then They came in one morning and quickly left.
Seems they met some girls at the local Mac cafe.
2 am in the morning so said non-uniform, gun toting undercover police took them out of the hotel and kept them for ransom because the girls from the Mac cafe were underage.
They had to withdraw money from their ATM for the police then off to the airport.
Boy were they scared.
