FEMINIST PROSTITUTION DEBATES 99
                 on prostitution generally consist of a sensationalised reworking of cases investigated by the
                 Chinese police.
               9 For reports that attribute this typology of prostitution practices to the Chinese police, see
                 ‘China Makes  Headway in Fight against Prostitution, Gambling’  (1999); and  O’Neill
                 (1999). See also ‘Sex Work in China’ (2000) and Pan Suiming (1996:52–7).
              10 For accounts in the popular press of bureaucratic entrepreneurs being arrested for hiring
                 women to accompany them on  business  trips,  see Liu  Fanqi (1993:24–6) and Zhang
                 Yanshang (1993:12–19).
              11 For a fictional account of this practice see Li Yongshan (1995:13–17).
              12 For policing and other accounts of massage services within a diverse array of venues, see
                 ‘Jingcheng qudi yixing anmo’ (1996); Wang Huanju (1995:44–9); and Xin Ran (1996). For
                 accounts in the popular press of women who work in ‘hairdressing salons’, see Huang Chen
                 and Huan Yan (1993:34–5); Huang Min (1994:32–5); and Li Juqing (1993:40–1).
              13 For a brief discussion of the act of soliciting by female prostitutes, as well as the activities of
                 women attempting to attract customers for businesses such as restaurants, constituting a
                 form of sexual harassment, see Pan Suiming (1992:39, trans. Rosen [1994:37–8]).
              14 For  a discussion of some  of  the  problems surrounding efforts  to police  the transient
                 workforce, see Zhao Shukai (2000:101–10).
