There is this friend of mine who lives in a 12 story tower. It’s the tallest building in an area that is currently under development.
Now that does not seem to be too tall considering that the sole task of the developers of this region at this point of time is to make buildings and structures that are truly magnificent and designed to leave a mark – modern day Taj Mahals.
What makes the tower remarkable is the fact that apart from my friend it also provides abode to many working ladies from all parts of the globe. If he is to be believed, the 78 of the 120 flats are occupied by ladies of pleasure who come to this part of the world from all parts of the world with the intention of making a quick buck on a tourist visa.
He had a tough time explaining to his mother the nightly buzz caused by cars driving up to the building and driving away, the ring of the lift and of course the sounds from the neighboring flat.
His building is simply a microcosm of the rest of the region. A true melting pot.

From what I hear it's good for business... economy...mmm business
whatever. It makes the businessmen stay longer and thus spend more money.
It's the lure of the sirens with the gori chamdi.
