But the advertising is for a reason............to get Russian customers to use their services, carried out by Russians, and do these folks have work permits?????

I know a Thai lady who is a pharmacist here in Rawai and she speaks fluent Russian, she has signs outside in Russian and also labels things in the shop in Russian, She owns the business not Russians, nothing illegal. 

BOLT is even cheaper,

Not overly concerned about 'adults' killing themselves.....but it does annoy me to see kids sat on someone's knee in the front of a car or gangs of kids in the back of a truck been driven by a complete moron who thinks he is in an F1 race.

2 Adults with 2 kids on a bike, normal around here, 

I hope it wasn't them women police officers that caught them

What does Thailand expect that young people with no savings on a long term visa don't need to eat and pay things?? Of course they do things and because a workpermit is very difficult to get with all the paperwork they will do illegal.. Maybe time to review the Labour laws.. Stealing jobs from Thai is impossible as Thailand imports a lot of Myanmar. Cambodian and Malaysian workers to work here, as Thai only want to be boss and don't do the work by themselves

They are renting villas between them, I know of one villa 12 of them living there

What about the old,retired Russians.

They are the worst, they go back to the days of the old USSR, 

I think I said earlier in the thread, I bought some of them beans not realizing the price increase, I only opened one can the other day I swear it's half empty of beans, I was making my dinner, but the next can I'm going to drain the sauce off and see how much beans in the can, they can <deleted> off I'm buying no more especially with the increase in price being that much, 

Some or most are miserable they are hard work, only today I said to a Russian couple their first time in Thailand, "You smile" they smile, why so serious,

I see them now offering Iranians free one year Visas.  They really seem to love Iran people here.

Right now they don't even get a visa on arrival,
