Didn't someone, somewhere on this thread post something questionable with the management /staff of xing party? Something about them possibly being in cahoots with the GA (real or otherwise) to supposedly negotiate the price down from 10k to 5k as the price for their release?

WECHAT - China deleted 250,000 to 2 million user accounts related to prostitution

China’s notorious Internet censors have come down hard on popular messaging service app WeChat, deleting 20 million messages, 10 million advertisements and 250,000 user accounts related to prostitution services, much to the surprise of many Chinese.

According to the official Weibo account for Tencent, the parent company of WeChat, authorities launched an operation called “Thunder Action” to crack down on prostitution rings that have taken to the messaging app to advertise their services.

The responses from Chinese Internet users to Tencent’s online announcement were mixed. Most were shocked at the sheer number of accounts and messages that had reportedly been affected.

“20 million?” one blogger wrote in response to the post. “That is a shockingly huge number to be involved in prostitution."

"Wow, who knew WeChat was an online brothel? I’ve never encountered such accounts,” another added.

“Wow, is the country’s prostitution market bigger than the country’s real estate market?” another chimed in.

While other reports suggest 20 million accounts had been deleted, which would constitute about 5 percent of the app's total users, 250,000 is still a large number of accounts, and if true, it demonstrates the sweeping capabilities of China's censors.

The most recent purge of accounts is part of a grander scheme initiated in April to create a “healthy cyberspace,"which aims to wipe out pornography and other content deemed scandalous or vulgar from the Chinese Internet.

“Allow the purification of WeChat to begin,” one user wrote, adding, “First it was Weibo, now it’s WeChat.” Weibo is a service akin to Twitter.

In the past, because WeChat is primarily a texting service, the content of conversations was not posted publicly, which kept discussions private within groups on the app, which are usually unmonitored. However, an announcement last month invited users and service providers to report any violations on the app so authorities could intervene.

Prostitution, while illegal, is largely tolerated by authorities in China, and many local officials turn a blind eye to rampant prostitution rings.

WeChat’s multiservice platform made advertising for the sex industry easy. Its private messaging function allows for discreet solicitation, and WeChat’s online payment services allows for seamless, and unmonitored, transactions.

“The explosive development of WeChat created an unprecedented breeding ground for the sex industry,” one Weibo user wrote. “So this is how the sex industry does marketing,” another added.

This isn’t the first time WeChat users have been booted off the service. Earlier this year, the accounts of several political bloggers and blogs that monitored Chinese social issues or controversies were deleted without warning, marking the first time WeChat used censorship tactics. The most recent wave of censoring suggests that more crackdowns are likely to follow.

My friend 小胖 has closed his shop at ground floor of lucky hotel...he is the main agent for taiwanese mongers and a pickup point for 远东 bus service. At this rate cp is deteriorating, I am just afraid even bus services coming in from HKIA will be affected...

Will try to ask my friend to send me so that i can share with bros.

Looks scarry...

Yup I have seen the video. Honestly I'm very sure the video is not taken in CP cos I'm was in CP and If there is a raid We would have heard about it. There seriously no hotel checks anymore.. Bro Joe has mentioned many times. He is staying there so his info is very accurate. To me the video looks very fake also. 3 gals and 1 guy in the room naked. Then the video u can't see their faces.

I just checked into Clipper hotel with bro StriderSg, we got adjacent rooms on the same floor and both of us are the only guests around. The hotel and the street seem so empty. Because there are so few guests, the hotel switched off air conditioning on entire floors to save $$. We have to endure 20mins of sauna treatment before the room gets cool enough.

The rooms are probably vacant for quite a while, bro StriderSg found spiderwebs in his room, and the bedsheets look dusty to him.

Going to kTV tonight, see how la. Will write FR

As far as I remember, XGX had been one of the earliest agents for CP and had been THE guys who brought the boat loads of mongers from Taiwan. The other major had always been Ken/GoFly who also seems to be winding down.

Not good signs for the recovery of CP IMHO.

Cheap too -
A block RMB 128,
B block 188
C block, the new wing with huge rooms/bathtubs RMB 298, but they'll give you a RMB 60 coupon back.

At least that's what the rates were when I stayed last week

And Manhattan was at RMB 138.

But all the money you save on hotel room will not even cover just the cost of the crazy increases in girls' prices.

So whats the reason why you're pooh-poohing others' efforts to share information?

I personally would encourage donjoe 1000 to try his best to share this video with us. I think most of us are adult enough to judge its value etc.

Just IMHO

SEAJ

Haha lai Liao lai Liao...

How do u even know that he did not even watch the video?

Who are u to judge?

Have u even bother ask if he has watch the video before u pass ur remarks...
