Monitors remind classmates that love is publically unacceptable
With the new railway and direct flights not far down the pipeline, it's easier than ever to get to Lhasa. And if you're ever feeling homesick, you might feel better upon seeing the "Pink Parlours" of Lhasa. On a lonely night on the rooftop of the world, a visit there just might take you back to those days when you were a Shanghai Ulysses navigating the treacherous waters of Fumin Lu, trying your best to resist the call of the blowzy mini-skirted siren that beckon you. The American photographer Sarah Schorr has documented some of the prostitutes that live and work in Lhasa. It seems that these are among the many changes that economic progress -- ten percent annual growth -- has brought to Lhasa and Tibet in recent years.

Legislation or underground? Dilemma, but better figure it out ASAP.
probably not a dilemma her in China as if its deemed illegal but is just allowed, there is more money to be made by the government officials and representatives. besides, when it becomes an issue , they can just swoop in anc close everyone down, no waiting time for laws to pass etc...
