TAIPEI: -- Taiwanese police said Tuesday that they had arrested eight Thai women aged between 20 and 30 for prostitution in Taipei.

 

The women had gone to the Taiwanese capital hoping to cash in on rich pickings at Chinese New Year, they said.

 

The women were charging 2,500 baht for half an hour of their time, reports Thairath.

 

The China Post and Taiwan News reported that the women had been arrested at an apartment after being met by someone who was not named. They had been in Taipei just two days when they were caught.

 

The news media said that the Thais were taking advantage of the fact they did not need visas to enter Taiwan.

 

They were arrested in the Soonan area of the city on Friday.

A bit cheeky on their part charging that much.

The NT$ and the Baht are almost equal in value:   1 TWD =1.12299THB

They were over charging and getting a little extra on the currency difference.

That's an expensive start to the year of the cock.

 

[Dararasmi]

Eight for ฿2,500? That's quite a bargain! 

[BEngBKK]

Whole sale is always cheaper than buying 1 unit

P.s

What is standard price in TH ?

Taiwan no have lady for boom boom? 

[phantomfiddler]

Don,t give the Pattaya ladies any ideas, they are already too pricey

[rgraham]

Seems a bit steep!

 

[boomerangutang]

Men with wives and girlfriends pay for it also.  Probably a lot more than Bt.2,500 a pop.   An extreme example:  James Cameron, director of blockbuster movies, was married for several months to Linda Hamilton, but when they divorced, she strolled away with a cool $50 million.

I wonder, too. 45 years ago Taiwan had a very tightly controlled system of prostitution, at least in Taibei. You had to fill out a contract in the bar, the bar kept a copy and the customer kept a copy. Prices were controlled. Taxes were collected. The workers were protected. I don't know if they still have the same system or not.

[NextStationBangkok]

Over priced!

 

Deport them!

Why were they arrested, for overcharging, or causing unfair competition by undercharging?

[Jimbo2014]

When I read the headline I thought they were arrested for overcharging!

[Katipo]

It's funny when you ask your local friends what they think the country is famous for around the world....... Friendly smiles? Phad Thai? Elephants? .........Nope. 

[TheFishman1]

Thai pussy will travel anywhere for money many go to Singapore or Korea you know massage with happy ending TIT

[Kabula]

What a waste of time.

 

For the Police and the media reporting it.

 

Marriage is legal prostitution!

 

If you don't believe it cut off the cash and see what happens.

 

Who isn't a prostitute these days with economies retreating and some crashing?

[Clarinet man]

Go for it sisters if you can sell it at that price . Good on you.  If I was a girl and had a small I'd be selling it too.  But I am old and have a fat ass . ?

[Penicillin]

I knew this headline would bring out the clever and quick whit commentators. Nice to start the news with a smile and laugh.

I don't dabble but can't see the big deal, oldest professional in the world. As long as they make the effort, give good service and everyone is happy. Doesn't do much for the 'image' or stereotype of Thighland, though, granted.
