Most people already have the mindset that Geylang is not a good place to stay, that might be one of the reasons why Geylang ppty prices are cheaper than those FH in the city fringe. Different people have different thinking. Some people simply don't mind about the area because they like the location and also lots of eateries around. Some people prefer to pay higher price to stay somewhere else or ulu area (with an affordable price), I think, the main reason is the vice.
I wonder when a man walks alone on a street, will the vice approach him for the business or it is the other way round that the man has to go over to the vice for a "discussion". As for a decent lady who walks alone on the street, will the man approach this lady for the service?
I still think that lots of things depend on the individual. A responsible man will not easily "submit to temptation" if they already have a girlfriend or wife. If they really want to do so, don't need to go to Geylang, they can find another lady friend and commit adultery also.
Think about it, Geylang red light area is in such a good location, it is also very convenience and easy for the vice to travel to nearby areas (eg Paya Lebar, Kallang, Marine Parade etc) to attract customers. Actually what is the purpose of setting up a red light area, for the foreign construction workers or to give the Singaporeans a chance to commit adultery easily given such a convenience location?
