Usually and most of the times such operations will need the patronage and protection of powerful figures either army, police or local mafia, something has gone wrong to send the cops to bust them...

Is this connected to the bust in Pattaya?

I wonder how many hours a week they had to put in to come away with US$350-$500 per month.

Bust or take over? 

Did  they go  in guns ablazing?

Yeah, I’m guessing someone didn’t get paid their cut .......

The BIB must be weeping into their empty brown envelopes

This could not happen in a well run condo without the knowledge of the residence committee ,the juristic manager and the police .Perhaps further investigation of those people should be instigated.

Would have been smarter telling them that they have new shareholders now.

Sorry Boss, forgot to deliver the envelope yesterday
