'Come in first & we'll talk about it': North Bridge Road massage parlour suspected of soliciting men for business
They were seen in revealing clothes.
Recent reports have raised concerns about massage parlours in the North Bridge Road area potentially engaging in illicit activities. According to a reader of the Shin Min Daily News, women dressed in revealing clothing have been seen outside these establishments every evening, actively approaching passing men. This behaviour has sparked worry among residents about the potential impact on legally operating shops in the vicinity.
Upon visiting the area, a Shin Min reporter discovered three adjacent massage parlours situated in a row of shophouses. Outside each shop, one or two women were dressed provocatively, while at least seven or eight women were found seated inside the parlours. One woman even waved at the reporter, smiling when approached and inquiring if they were interested in a massage.
When asked about the availability of "special services," she responded with a cryptic "Come in first and we'll talk about it" before attempting to pull the reporter into the establishment. Her demeanor remained cautious when questioned about the pricing.
Interestingly, one of the shops featured its entrance and exterior obscured by curtains, preventing any visual inspection of the interior. The reporter also reached out to several legitimate massage parlours in the neighbourhood, but the owners were reluctant to comment on the establishments suspected of conducting illegal activities. One owner simply remarked, "With more massage parlours in the vicinity, the competition naturally intensifies."
