Guangzhou hotels under surveillance

Guests must register with ID documents

GUANGZHOU - Guests checking into hotels in the capital of South China's Guangdong province are now required to present their identity cards, as the police on Tuesday launched a crackdown on illegalities at entertainment venues ahead of the Asian Games in November.

More than 1,200 people in charge of security at Guangzhou's nightclubs, bars, sauna parlors and hotels signed documents, pledging to run their businesses with honesty.
