Hong Kong's oldest hooker retiring

A 75-year-old believed to be Hong Kong's oldest prostitute has promised to retire from her profession after being caught selling sex for $HK20 ($3.95) a time.

Wu Wei-geen, whose convictions date back to 1982, was arrested in the city's red light Shamshuipo district in March leaving a room with a 60-year-old male client.

She told police she could not make ends meet on her social welfare payments and charged clients $HK20.
