As I've Opined (am NOT a Lawyer, but have read up on HK's prostitution laws as matter of obvious self-interest!) in my idle chat thread, prostitution per se in Hong Kong is NOT illegal - Any woman can do whatever she wants to do with her own body.
But operating a house of prostitution IS illegal and thus the reason why a lot of gals, especially the Walk up Gals will NOT do 3P's. You see, the term 141 or one room one phoenix arises from the legal requirement for a girl to work solely in her own INDIVIDUAL premises if she is going to prostitute herself. And if the police catches more than 1 girl in an individual premise with a customer, then the police will charge them with operating a house of prostitution, profiting from the proceeds of prostitution (Pimping - which is illegal) etc etc.
The same applies for HG's too - and thus, apart from a HG being possibly being charged for violating the term of her permissible stay in Hong Kong (she is NOT allowed to take up ANY employment whilst in Hong Kong - including working as a prostitute), she would also be charged the same as the WG above. BUT, since she (and the pimp) knows that she already is committing an illegal act (working in HKG whilst not being permitted to do so), she is probably going to be a bit more relaxed/amenable about doing a 3P - "Heck - am already doing something illegal - Might as well do another thing which is illegal - am in deep doo-doo if caught anyways!"
Now, as far you the client is concerned - I'm quite sure (not 100%) that you are yourself NOT going to be get into any trouble. But I'm also wondering if the Police could charge you with "soliciting for purpose of an immoral act" - as they COULD make a case that you had been the one who instigated the 3p arrangement with one or both of the girls.
I'd be very interested to get input/correction from anybody here who does have legal training and qualifications on what I stated above.
