"WELCOME???"  hmm,  strange term for the way I feel.  They are welcome in the same sense that a hog is welcome to the county Barbeque.

 

This ain't neutrality.  This is December 1941 again.  I am so, so, disappointed.

Just wondering , are their still direct flights to Pattaya . I seem to remember that some Russian flights were allowed to fly direct to Pattaya a few years ago .

 

Also , with the large amount of Russians coming to Thailand and some maybe fleeing mobilisation , are they being checked for return flights ? It was only a month or so ago that flights out of Russia to the middle east and Turkey were very expensive . $15k for a one way ticket .

Hua Hin has loads of Russians along with other Europeans.  I miss the days of pandemic emergency measures where the place seemed like a small seaside village with virtually no tourists.

 

Anyways still a pleasant place after Issan. 20221121_201842.thumb.jpg.ca9e8a4014c40cdbcbd0b1a91c0419b7.jpg

How can they afford it? Their currency was supposed to have been rendered worthless by Ukraine sanctions. But there’s a lot of inflated tourist numbers on this site all the time so who knows. 

Russia still gets $2bn every day from oil and gas exports. No wonder their currency is as strong as a farang's c*ck in a gogo bar.
