From the UK Daily Telegraph….
Sun Meng has been given the cold shoulder by his community after the extraordinary picture of him cowering naked outside the flat were posted on the internet. The terrified 25-year-old fled from the balcony window when he was caught in bed with the man’s wife at the married couple’s flat in Chengdu, central China. Photographs of the angry showdown, taken by a startled neighbour, were uploaded to a local community website. “My family is ashamed and none of my own neighbours will talk to me any more,” said Sun. “I know what I did was wrong but I was afraid he would kill me. “People are even laughing at how I look naked – but I have to point out it was a very cold day,” he added.
Look, I was talking to Charlie Sheen and Warren Buffett the other day about emerging markets, and Buffett hit it right on the head for me and Charlie. These Asian countries have great raw materials and low labour costs, but it’s dangerous doing business there because of the transparency and the culture. And the old bastard is exactly right.
I mean there’s hookers as far as the eye can see, and they’re as cheap as they come. But it’s not the jackpot you think in Asia. For a start, the hookers can be like a box of chocolates – you never know what you’re gonna get. I mean the dudes over there don’t have Adam’s Apples so you need Level 2 Data to know whether you’re on the right track.
And then if you don’t go the hooker route, you can end up like Sun Meng here, who tried humping his neighbour’s wife, had to stand out on a fucking air-conditioner for who knows how long until hubby calmed down, and then had it posted on the internet.
So these developing markets aren’t the easy returns you think. Remember that next time you’re fumbling through Asian babes… or E-trade.
