Singapore is VERY different to BKK. Do not expect to see the same type of bars, and definitely do not expect to see the same prices! Singapore society is also much less tolerant of lb's and the "bar scene" in general.

There are 3 main "red light districts" as far as I can tell – Orchard Towers, Geylang, and Changi Village. All 3 have lb's. My own experience is limited to OT for the moment.

What is Orchard Towers (OT)? During the day it is a 25 story office block and shopping center at the West end of Orchard Road, in the heart of Singapore's shopping district. Floors 4 to 25 are offices. Basement to 3rd floor are shops and bars. During the day, most of the bars are closed. The shops are a series of small retail outlets like you will see in any shopping mall in the US, Thailand, wherever. At night ie after about 8pm-ish, the shops are beginning to close and the bars begin to open. There are about a dozen bars from the basement up to the 3rd floor. That means there are actually 5 floors...basement, ground, first, second, third. However, I think they must have added the basement bars later, since OT's nickname is "The Four Floors of Whores". There are also a couple of bars across the street at the back entrance to OT on Claymore Drive.

Where is OT? Downtown central Singapore. As central as Patpong is to Silom business district, and Nana is to Sukhumvit. It is also right beside the Thai embassy! Here is a shot of the downtown area:


The front and main entrance to OT is at the West end of Orchard Road, which is the shopping equivalent of Oxford Street in London. Orchard Road is probably 2 miles long running East West, and is pretty much shopping mall after shopping mall. The East end of Orchard Road is the VERY centre of old colonial Singapore and the financial district.

Here is a general location search for Singapore. You can type in your hotel name and find out where it is, although not all of them seem to work: http://www.streetdirectory.com.sg/index.jsp


Opening Hours...

All the bars apart from Country Bar close at 2am. Country Bar is 3am.

I have no idea what time the bars start opening....I have never been there too early. But I guess about 7pm. Most girls will start arriving in numbers between 8pm and 9pm. A couple of the bars are open early on a Sunday, 3pm start I believe. I know Ipanema does this.

Bars Overview: There are between 12-15 bars in this complex. These are not go-go bars with semi-naked girls dancing on stage.....no way would that be allowed in Singapore. Most of the bars will either be disco/clubs, or have a band playing. Girls will dress in normal clothes and look like normal customers in a bar, just like the girls who work in Big Dogs, etc, outside Nana Plaza.

Personally, I stick with the same 3 bars. Country Bar to have a quiet beer at the start of the night, Ipanema for gg's and live music, and, of course, Crazy Horse for the lb's:

Country Bar: First floor on the left at top of escalator. Overlooks Orchard Road, so you can take a seat at the window and watch the Singaporean lb's outside. Plays country music, lots of stools around a big central bar, half a dozen TV's showing sport, DJ, small dance floor, and a pool table. Music not too loud. Usually 20-30 girls work here. Waitresses are good fun, and there is a "Tequila Lady" on the prowl as well!

Good starting point for the evening. Also good resting point if you want to get away from the noise of the other bars for a while. As far as I know, this is the only bar in OT outside Crazy Horse that you can take a lb to for a drink.

The girls that work here are not aggressive. They will try to catch your eye across the bar, and will come up and say hello. But you can also quite happily have a quiet beer, observe the girls and watch sport on TV or have a game of pool. There are no "lady drinks' in Country Bar ie the girls do not get commission if you buy them a drink. So, if you spend an hour chatting and buying them a couple of drinks and then decide not to go with them, it is the right thing to do to at least tip them something (in my opinion).

Ipanema. First floor on the right at top of escalator. Pretty large bar with band playing rock stuff like Bon Jovi. Probably busiest of the disco bars, dozens of girls working every night. 2 bars inside, band on stage over to the right and a dance floor in the middle.

Crazy Horse. The LB bar of OT. Nowhere in Singapore is exclusive LB. I guess Crazy Horse is 50-50. Of the 50% LB's, some will be pre-op and others post-op. I have met lb's from Thailand, Philippines, China, Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia here.

This place is straight up 3 escalators from the main entrance and it is right in front of you. Inside you have a pool table, and lots of tables/stools surrounding a dance floor. There is a resident DJ and the music is popular club music, nothing too radical. Loud-ish, but you can still have a conversation. You can go to the bar and order drinks, but there are some very efficient waitresses running around to save you the hassle. The girls will come up to you and do the "hi, what's your name, where you from" routine, but take your time. They are not aggressive like BKK, but will wander off if you politely say "no thanks".

Some AsianTS members are interested in the Rowell Road ladyboy scene of Singapore. So here's some info. There's an old sleazy shophouse right next to a tiny convenience store. The guys running the store are actually the pimps. There are a few other lb shophouses along Rowell Road. There's one with only Indian lbs, and a few with slightly mature Singaporean lbs. Check them out if you want. But I would stick to the shophouse next to the convenience store, which has the best looking girls. Only Thai lbs and the occasional Malaysian lbs seem to work that shophouse. Though there aren't many Malaysians there anymore. It seems that they now prefer to work abroad in Dubai, Australia or Europe.

There are girls from about 9pm - 2am at Rowell, but most of the lbs work only from 10pm - 1am. They can afford to work such short hours due to the high customer throughput during these times. A few years ago, the lbs would work from 8pm - 6am when business was much better. Business is slower now, though lbs can still manage to score a few customers daily.

It's quite a sleazy, dilapidated place so don't be expecting too much in the way of accommodation. Some people actually like the sleaziness: it ups the filth factor of the whole experience. The lbs stand behind a locked gate and strut their stuff. Standard rate is 30 Singapore dollars (about 660 baht). Sometimes lbs try their luck and ask for higher prices. Just stick to your offer of $30 and the lbs will definitely accept ... for sure! There's no such thing as divas charging higher rates here. Everyone goes for 30 bucks a pop. You just have to point to whoever you like, and she'll open the gate for you. It's then straight to sex.

When I was in Thailand, lbs would ask me about the lb scene in Singapore. They all knew about Orchard Towers, but most hadn't heard of Rowell. They were shocked to learn about the low $30 ST fee. It didn't seem worthwhile to travel all the way to Singapore just to earn 30 bucks per session. They usually aim to work the bars in Orchard Towers where the going rate is 100 Singapore dollars, sometimes more. Truth is, Rowell girls normally earn more than their Orchard Towers counterparts. In Orchard Towers the p4p scene is very competitive, where there are many lbs and even more ggs, but few punters. No doubt lbs there charge $100, but they are lucky to even get one customer in a night. It's better to earn $300 daily for $30 per customer at Rowell, versus $100 for just one customer at Orchard Towers. In Rowell, it's straight to sex. So girls earn $30 after just 20 minutes. And customer volume is pretty high. Which is why the lbs can afford to work only a few hours. I know that Rowell lbs used to get 10 - 20 customers daily. That's 300 - 600 Singapore dollars for an lb each day. Now business is quieter, but lbs will still get customers every single day. Our girl Benz got 5 - 10 daily. That's way better than her 3 customers in a full month back in Pattaya. And it was supposed to be high season during that time!


The customer base is primarily local, with Indian/Bangladeshi workers, too. Some lbs will strictly avoid these workers. They sometimes pay less, like 25 or even 20 Singapore dollars. Other lbs don't mind as the workers are easy money for them, because they cum very quickly. This is what the lbs tell us, and we're not speaking from personal experience. Every night you can see these eager beaver workers at the gate.

How about the toilet ... if you can even call it that. The toilet has no door, and there's no seat on the toilet bowl. And I think it still can't flush properly. I've wondered about this a few times. How do the lbs take a dump, when there's only one toilet bowl that can't flush? I suspect that they sh*t directly into the open drainhole beside the toilet. Or maybe it's true: lbs don't fart and they don't sh*t.

Anyone remember Rowell/Desker in the earlier years? Like during the pre-2003 periods. Business was crazy high during those times. Many customers walking in and out of the rooms. No such thing as the short 9pm - 2am working hours they have at Rowell now. Because of the customer volume, lbs started parading themselves from 7pm, all the way til 6am! No Thais then, only Singaporean and Malaysian lbs. And the lbs could parade openly in the street without the cops hassling them. Boy, those were the days!


Watching the world go by?


For those of us who have been to Nana Plaza in Bangkok, can there be a better place in the whole universe than 6pm perched on a balcony seat in Big Dogs watching all the girls coming to work in Nana? There is no exact equivalent at OT, but the closest is a window seat upstairs at Muddy Murphy's Irish Bar on Claymore Street. The taxi rank is just outside, and most of girls will arrive by taxi between 8pm and 9pm.


Hotels near OT:

Many of the big name hotels are within a few minutes walk. The Hilton is less than 100 yards away, almost directly opposite the main OT entrance on Orchard Road. The JW Marriott is 3 minutes walk away on the same side of Orchard Road as OT, and is right beside the Grand Hyatt. Shangri La is also a few minutes walk away.

ATM Machines:

There is an ABN Amro machine that takes all international cards just inside the main entrance to OT on Orchard Road. Across Claymore Drive outside the back entrance to OT there is a DBS bank machine (DBS is a large regional bank). Remember, this is right in the center of the shopping area, so there will be many more ATM's very close by.
Drinks, Pricing, and Tipping
Standard of living in Singapore is probably in the middle between a place like London/NYC, and BKK/Manila. So expect prices to be appropriately positioned. However, alcohol is heavily taxed ie comparable to Paris, and more expensive than London. The local draught beer is Tiger. In most bars, this will be Sing$10 for a half pint (about US$5.70....currently about 1.75 US$ to Sing$). Bottled Heineken, Carlsberg, etc, will be Sing$12-14 ie US$7-8 a bottle. Spirits eg G&T, Scotch/coke, etc will be about Sing$12-14 as well.

I'm not sure about the rules for "lady drinks". In Crazy Horse, the girls do get something if you buy them a drink. This does not happen in Country Bar, and I don't know about the other bars.

I always tip the waitresses Sing$1 (US$0.60) every time they bring me a drink. Be careful of a little trick they play though. They will bring back your change in a little wallet like you get restaurant bills in. They will leave the notes coins outside the inner pocket, and sometimes "hide" a dollar coin INSIDE the pocket. So, you leave a dollar tip, but you don't see the second dollar inside the inner pocket and actually give them 2 dollars. Cute!
Girls Pricing (gg's and/or lb's)

Short time and long time is a universal rule in any city. OT usually has a lot of customers, lots of business people come to Singapore. So, most of the girls will hope to have more than one customer per night. So, if you want LT starting early in evening, they will probably ask Sing$350 (US$200). After midnight, you will probably get Sing$250, maybe Sing$200. VERY occasionally girls have said Sing$150, but that is rare. I am told some of the Phillipina girls go slightly lower.

Singaporean LBs
They are NOT allowed in Crazy Horse or any of the other bars. Don't know why. The only bar I have been able to take them for a drink in is Country Bar. They work the mall inside OT, and the pavement outside the main entrance on Orchard Road. Turn left outside the main entrance onto Orchard Road, and for the next 200 yards you will see a dozen or so Singaporean lb's on the prowl every night. They will normally appear from about 10h30/11pm until 3 or 4am.

Security and Police
There is a security guard desk right beside the ATM machine just inside the main entrance. The Singapore police are also regularly patrolling the pavement and road outside. Singapore is a VERY safe city. If you behave like a drunk, you WILL get arrested....no messing about.

At this time, there are no ladyboys in Geylang any more. You can get them from about 8p.m. at Rowell Road in a 2 story building. Walk along the whole length of the road. They hang out at about 3 different spots. You get Thais and some Malaysians at one end and locals at the other. They charge the locals about US $20 for about 20 minutes, they may ask for more if you're not. The Thais are the main attraction; both pre and post-op. You sometimes get some really good lookers. If you see the street empty, there may have been some cops around. Wait for about 20 minutes or so and try again. Strictly speaking they're not supposed to be there. They would hang around until early morning. The nearest underground train station is called Farrer Park, when you're there use exit A and head towards a big department store called Mustaphas. Rowell Road is two roads away.

In Changi, the place is called Changi Village. Take either a taxi or bus number 2 to the Changi terminus. There are 2 locations, one is behind the 7-11 store in a big car park and the other is at the other end near a Shell petrol station. Those near the Shell station are better looking and are "professional" and charge about US $30, while those at the 7-11 end tend to be local CDs and charge about US$20. Can't comment about the Orchard Towers, they're more pricey.

There's a few people that have asked about Changi Village in Singapore as a location to pick up freelancing Singaporean LBs. Unfortunately, you need to drive to get there and most of the time the deed is done in the car in a secluded area that they will direct you to, or if you prefer, some will allow you to fuck them outside the car standing up. There's 1 or 2 that have their apartments nearby and will take you to their place.

Anyway, we went one night after a biz meeting that ended late and after a few drinks. It was 3am and there were a few LBs working. Got out of the car and chatted with 2. Finally chose the 3rd one, slim pretty Chinese/Malay mix called Iris. Nice body, C-cup boobs, great ass, preop and can get hard and cum but small and she doesn't top.
..

Here's a hint: Try not to go during Fri/Sat/Sun... The place drowns with with families and weekend packers and some nuisance kiddo boys doing nothing but disturbing the lovely LBs. Best time to roam is 2 till 4am.
