I think Thais are realising that they are rich and “ Farangs” here in Thailand used to be thought off as rich . Thais put races in 1 basket . No diversity in their thinking.
I know when I’m in 5 star hotels in bkk, 80%% or so are Indians and Chinese and do you know how many “ farangs” are in guest houses?
and from what I’ve heard , Indians are ruling Pattaya and Phuket ( used to be Russians)
