Flushing made the frontpage of yesterday's New York Times, albeit under the fold. A brothel run by a couple of Koreans at 57-24 164th Street was shutdown by authority. What's interesting is "there were two prices in place, for some unexplained reason: $150 for Chinese patrons, and $200 for Koreans." So it's true, there is discount for Chinese...for sex.

update:
This probably inspired a story by Chinese American novel writer Ha Jin.
