Agreed. The business is booming. Don't agree its only for stick rice though...

Spot on! This issue of 'sticky rice' is flexible. Trust me, there is one thing a guy can't resist is availablity!!

Do you mean the sex workers charge (& you probably don't know this anyway but may be you do...) or they are doing freebies on their day off? The stuff about non-p's not being interested in white guys again is may be too broad a statement.
Thanks for the post.
