Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
Re: Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
1. GM isn't correct, nor are you. We all know how Phnom Penh "bars" as we have followed their development over the years. We are disgusted by it if you haven't figured that out by now.jah steu wrote:As GM says you seem to have a limited idea how Phnom Penh bars work.NokTang wrote:Did you still pay the girls the amount the barang pimp has told/taught them to charge for companionship? I'm guessing the figures are about $50usd. Are guys really paying girls from hostess bars $50.usd for dinner and dancing?(plus of course the cost of the food and drinks)
Once the girl has left the bar, in about half the cases they just go eating, bar cruising, and dancing. I'm not aware of any bar owners telling the girls to charge for this. The girls generally just enjoy getting out of the bar for the evening. Sometimes the guys will tip them $5-20 for their time, plus pay for food and drinks, but there is no "companionship" charge.
As far as your area, Pattaya, is concerned, I have no idea how the bars operate and have no interest in knowing. I've only spent a week there and that was five days too long. Bad attitudes from many girls and lots of crappy dull bars.
2. If the guy is tipping them for having dinner and a night out on the town, great. As you and I and most but not all know, that's a joke "night out" in PNH.
3. Pattaya isn't about bars despite the perception of short term visitors and of course publicity stunts like you try on. It's a tourist destination with many tourist attractions catering to the Chinese and other Asian tourists(Russians in the past) in addition to a massive development of condos for the affluent Thai people and farang retirement. Bars don't matter for shit, they can close them all tomorrow and not miss a beat, especially the barang run bars.
Re: Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
Taking this portion of your vicious reply alone, I think I'm going to cry. People are reading this forum who don't have a clue what you are doing with such antics. Should we inform them or just let them get scammed over and over again? That's the big question. As I said some pages back, you are ruining girls lives with this crap. She won't want to clean house, cook, or do anything other than go drink and eat out all on the barangs wallet since he's not only rich, but stupid. Lives, the future, is at stake if such crap is allowed to go on without recourse to those promoting it.jah steu wrote: Once the girl has left the bar, in about half the cases they just go eating, bar cruising, and dancing.

Re: Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
I have a perfectly refined idea and actual knowledge how "hostess bars" in PNH work. Why should I go in them? I have never nor will I ever pay a barfine in Phnom Penh. You've got to be crazy to do so, to promote and encourage such things.General Mackevili wrote: I would suggest trying it yourself, but apparently you don't ever go in them and have no idea how hostess bars work:
Ask a girl if she wants to be bar fined and go out with you for the night.
GM....We ask you to wait until you are asked to buy a girl from said "hostess bar" and then give us your undivided opinion about the concept. Playing along even for a "night out" is setting yourself up for the ultimate scam of buying her "out" of said bar. Generally it's about one months barfine so that would I guess equal about $300.usd. They ask you for $300.usd to buy her out and you say what? Thanks.

Someone's got to ask....so I'll be the one, risking my membership doing so.....
Where exactly are you going to take her out? Poontoon or one of the various restaurants? To a Khmer movie? Thanks and hopeful. I've never been on a date with a prostitute in PNH so sort of need help with this. When I take a girl out for the first time, a "regular" girl, she always brings a chaperon and we always end up at an outdoor Khmer place which is/was okay. I just don't have a concept what you guys are talking about, taking girls you have paid a barfine for and who are generally with you for money, out to where? Other hostess bars where she has friends working? Buying lady drinks for the friends at these other bars?

Ok, but time tone down the persistent flaming of all bar owners and bars.NokTang wrote:That's what some guys tell the "bar owner" but as we all know, the girls need money and are with the barang for money, not love or dinner dates.King Keil wrote:I doubt that in half the cases the purpose of the barfine is just hanging out with the girl. But i am not a bar owner and hopefully never will.

Yes, Pontoon, but that's just me. LoL.
The point is, a lot more ALSO goes on that you don't see.
Nobody has said that they don't ALSO go home with customers.

some real hairsplitting morally vexed mongers here isn't it?
I think the basis of the argument is that they are afraid of inflation by those with more money than their very good selves.

Re: Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
I can always afford them, it's just the quality that I can afford has declined. In the old days it was a version of a well oiled German piece of precision engineering with the perfect lines of an Italian sports car, nowadays it's a version of a clapped out ( no medical connotation intended ) 20 year old beat up Tuk Tuk that pollutes the atmosphere. If that's inflation, life's a bitch.General Mackevili wrote:I feel that as long as teachers like myself can afford them, that the price is about right, LoL.
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.

Re: Scammed at Sharky Bar in Phnom Penh:
I must differ in the venues I attend to other posters.
No complaints from me on the social life I find.
As to cost, a small soft drink was $4.80 in a pizzeria in Sydney I visited Friday night.
