Because of White Silk's status as an exclusive, luxury establishment, Attendants who are employed at the club have an opportunity at substantially higher earnings, and thus, are able to pay down their debts at an accelerated rate. However, the club is highly selective, and expects its Attendants to meet very high standards of performance, service and conduct. In addition to the standard Five-Star Service Guarantee that applies to all of Altar's five-star properties, White Silk requires that its Attendants practice a philosophy known as ''active submission''. | Because of White Silk's status as an exclusive, luxury establishment, Attendants who are employed at the club have an opportunity at substantially higher earnings, and thus, are able to pay down their debts at an accelerated rate.

White Silk (Arabic: الحرير الأبيض, Al-Harir Al-Abyad) is a private gentlemen's club located in the Qalansiya district of the Socotra Special Administrative Region in Yemen. It is owned by Altar Group, and is designated as a five-star property. With a floor area of over 280,000 square feet on 8.2 acres of private grounds overlooking the scenic Detwar Lagoon, the club is one of the most luxurious in the world, and is a preferred venue for high-level meetings involving the business and political elite from across the Middle East and North Africa. The club has been ranked by Socotra Hospitality magazine as the most exclusive gentlemen's club in Socotra every year from 2029 to 2034.
The club's facilities include 6 lounges, 6 function rooms, 2 restaurants, 2 swimming pools, a full-service hammam and spa, secure videoconferencing and satellite telephone facilities, a helipad, a jetty, and a car rental office. There are also 46 guest suites and 2 oceanfront villas for overnight accommodation. The entire club compound is guarded by an on-site security team comprised of operatives from private military company Skyshroud.
"White Silk is where oligarchs and industry titans get deals done. It is the preferred choice of the elite because it affords extreme exclusivity and privacy. The club's vetting process is highly rigorous, and applicants have been known to remain on the wait list for years before getting approved."

For members of White Silk, the main draw is its adult entertainment services, which are provided by a roster of attractive and highly-trained female sex workers known as Attendants signed to long-term employment contracts under Yemen's kafala (sponsorship) system. As Inmate Prostitutes subject to Yemen's indenture laws, they are held in custody at the Al-Qadam Women's Dormitory in Qalansiya. The Curator of White Silk serves as their legal conservator.
Attendants employed at White Silk are recruited from Altar's Female Vocational Training Center (FVTC) in Thamud, Yemen, with offers made only to the top performers in each Reformative Training cohort. In addition, new Attendants are required to undergo a six-week, 630 hour course called the Attendant Advanced Course. With a minimum of 16 weeks' training prior to the start of their deployment, White Silk's Attendants are amongst the best-trained in Altar's entire global network.
Attendants
Overview of Attendants
Attendants are indentured sex workers who are available to serve customers at White Silk. During their period of indenture, they are held in custody, and their earnings are applied directly towards their outstanding debt balances. Once they have paid off their debts, they are discharged from indenture, and released from custody.
Because of White Silk's status as an exclusive, luxury establishment, Attendants who are employed at the club have an opportunity at substantially higher earnings, and thus, are able to pay down their debts at an accelerated rate. However, the club is highly selective, and expects its Attendants to meet very high standards of performance, service and conduct. In addition to the standard Five-Star Service Guarantee that applies to all of Altar's five-star properties, White Silk requires that its Attendants practice a philosophy known as active submission.
At the end of each session, customers are invited to rate the service they received. Ratings are given on a scale of 1 to 5. Attendants' average ratings are reviewed on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. Additionally, the club conducts an annual customer survey in which Attendants are ranked based on specific attributes, skills and service specializations. These metrics are used by the management to assess the performance of each Attendant, and are taken into account when determining bonuses, promotions and custody status reviews. In order to remain on the roster, each Attendant must achieve an average rating of at least 3.75 over the course of the preceding work year, and must also pass the standardized Sex Workers' Individual Fitness Test (SWIFT).
