.. so will they now remove the law requiring ID for SIMS? - no, partly to avoid losing face, and partly so the BIB can fine the poor 7/11 franchisee who fails to keep proper records.
Thus, I suspect it is with hotel reporting - not some massive Big Brother exercise - but a bureaucratic rule that isn't backed up by routine processing of the data gathered.

Have you forgotten that this is Asia - appearance trumps substance every time, the whole basis of “face”?

The law will only look at what is written on the ID and not what the ID holder says.
And forget all this mumbo jumbo about age of consent for locals/foreigners/prostitutes/johns whatever. Good luck arguing all that with the arresting officer if caught. Just make sure the boy's ID says he's at least 18 at the time you're about to have sex with him and that you've taken reasonable steps to ensure that his ID is legit. The rest is up to the goodwill of the officer concerned.

The rest is up to the goodwill ( or the required depth of the pockets) of the officer concerned,

As already I see we're now talking about consent limits and 14 year olds and how that should be avoided etc :-( Some things / topics just shouldn't NEED to be discussed - surely - as whilst we all may just be having a conversation that's sure as hell not how it looks to other visitors glancing over the board I'm sure ?
Your post at #37, quoted above NIrish-guy is quite correct. And much as I hate to be known as a killjoy, but I believe it is worth reminding members what the rule actually states:
Quote:
3.2.3 There are some topics that may not be discussed and which may put the Board in jeopardy. These are:
• The discussion of underage sex or the involvement of any persons in this illegal activity.
After 7 pages of explanation, I would guess that the question raised by CambodiaVisitor could now be considered to have been well and truly answered.
