This!

This is the missing back alley between Geylang Lor 2 & Lor 4 before Guille"mud" Road became Guillemard road!

That taxi is the old TIBS Taxi! And those Malaysian auntie FLs! WTF! So much memories!

But then... let me choose, I'd still choose China MMs over those in the pics.

The place was called Johor road. It was very famous for transvestites and prostitutes. There used to be a back lane which was very very dark and full of transvestites. Many ah peks and men would gather round there around late at night,by 12 it was swarming full of ladyboys and pros, for a look see and a touching session... When I was around 19 that time, the bus interchange of service number 170 was there. We used to take the last bus to Mandai Camp from there. On the way to the interchange I would usually walk through Johor road deliberately to have a look around. Some times when i see a pretty thing I would usually go back when I was not on army duty or go there early before booking back to camp for a quicky.

[Shocking_vibes]

SOme idiots sent me neggies and said i was a clone of someone cos my post appeared 2nd. Ask sam and check whether i'm his clone or not.




Yes this pic is from the movie shocking asia. I got the film but it has 2 languages mixed into it i cannot understand anything being said.

They also featured desker road and it looks exactly the same as it is today except the hawkers outside are fewer in number as the police have caught a number of them.


Some of you say it is in bugis, 1 mentioned in geylang lorong 2 and 4. Another said johor rd, someone said petain rd.

The buildings look like petain rd type, but u cannot drive a car thru flanders square where the gals are. Besides they have to walk up the stairs to the 2nd floor to do what they came to do.

Many of the gals look a bit mannish which means they might be ah kuas. Johor rd seems to have closed quite a long time back probably before i was born?

Just look at the spiral staircase, petain road still have those if you walk behind it....
