比利時安特衛普港的妓女向市政府抱怨新加裝的街燈太亮，嚇得客人都不敢來，嚴重影響她們做生意，結果市府從善如流，目前正在考慮將燈光調暗，給妓女方便。

英國「Ananova」網站報導，安特衛普港濱水地區最近加裝路燈，結果市府接到在附近做生意的妓女抱怨，直說這樣不但沒有充分的隱私，原本有意上門的「人客」也跑光了。安特衛普港允許妓女在濱水地區幾個街道「營業」，市府已測試當地電力系統，看能否將燈光弄暗。

The Belgian city of Antwerp is to dim its new waterfront lights after complaints from prostitutes.

Sex workers complained the bright lights were putting off potential clients, reports Independent Online.

"We had some remarks from the prostitutes that there was too much light, both for them and the clients," city council spokesperson Jorn Verbeeck said.

"We are investigating the possibility of lowering the light there."

Prostitutes complained to city and police officials that the lights did not give them enough privacy and hurt business, he said.

The port, which tolerates sex workers in a select few streets near the waterfront, is to test an electric system to dim the lights.
