I guess the powers that be want to get rid of all mongers.

OMG , why can't they send the filthy punters to Panty Flojo already and make that The New Sosua?
Willy can set up shop and we can close this thread.
Strange thing is, prostitution is legal in the DR. This is a war on citizens.
If the Municipality’s priority is to remove prostitution from Sosua, well then they have seriously failed!
With all the past actions by Police in chasing, arresting, extorting, and quickly releasing the ladies in the streets, clubs and bars – all they have actually managed to do, is to chase away most of the more well behaved and classier ladies.
This would not surprise me. I imagine that they are mobile and/or don't mind taking some time off while the latest "effort" (insert catchy slogan like "take back the streets", "Sosua for families", "Putas in las fundas", or whatever) runs its course.
Heavy policing in a highly profitable enterprise generally leads to smarter, better organized crime.
In other words: *"Prohibition never works". *
Well, here is a little feedback from us, those living here for a while and going out to eat and drink regularly - not the ones who never visit this town but always have a lot of ideas and opinions.
Walking down the street the last week or so, with some bars closed and no tables allowed outside for some bars, we noticed those bars in question are quite full, we wondered how they are going to cope with the high season, with more tourist coming (almost double or triple the numbers now), where are they going to sit or drink (aka, spend their money... !?). Or is it the plan to get rid of them in this way from these particular bars/area (ingenious !)
The government is not concerned about sex tourists. *The government has made it clear they do not want sex tourists which have recently made up about 70% of Sosua's tourists. So I have been told by those in the know in this thread.
Another observation was that those other bars and restaurants around town (specially those allowed to have tables outsides) now are flooded with mongers and their chicas, sitting on their laps, smoking that horrible cigar when you want to eat, basically occupying seats for chatting, talking loud about subjects even I get embarrassed to hear, living here for so long. I don't know if any so called family or couples can put up with that...
That is not good.
This is of course is the direct result of restriction on the ground-zero, the so called red-light district area, as night comes after day it was obvious that if you squeeze this crowd in that place they will scatter around the town - no need to be a rocket scientist to figure that out - unless you are in charge of running Sosua...!
I don't know if this was the desired result they were after, but as I have always mentioned, it is best if this phenomena is contained, controlled and managed (in a small area downtown or somewhere else). When are they going to learn from 6 years of failure...or is it 7 now !?
The sausage effect of prohibition on display in plain sight.
(P.S. Also for the day time, again more and more of these actions above are moving to the beach, also partly because they can not sit where they used to... a bit like disturbing the wasps nests - not a good idea !)
What is the next step?*
