According to rules released on the Ministry of Public Security's website (https://www.mps.gov.cn), entertainment venues must install transparent partitions between rooms that ensure "the whole environment of the consumer's entertainment area in the room can be seen."
"When open for business, the transparent part of rooms and windows to rooms at singing and dancing entertainment venues must not be obstructed," the rules say.
Discos, karaoke nightclubs and other bars in China frequently have private rooms for hire, and are a favorite places for businessmen to entertain guests, sometimes with prostitutes, which is illegal in China.
Staff clothing is also covered in the new rules. "Staff members should dress tastefully, and not be too exposing."

Chinese Commies: No fun anymore
The Chinese government has issued a bunch of new rules for bars and nightclubs, and surprisingly enough, the rules don't seem geared toward allowing patrons to cut loose and have fun:
As if we didn't need more reasons to hate Communist tyranny, they ban scantily-clad bar girls and go-go dancers? I mean, I'm not really all that opposed to cracking down on prostitution, but there's such a thing as going a step too far.
