I'm surely in the wrong, but I just cannot join the heard and follow the pink flag in any guided tour...perhaps with age and time, the thought could change ?

One thing seems sure, the police in Phuket are active in busting foreign criminals.  Keep it up!

Korean tour guides in Bangkok are filthy rich, I've seen packs of 1000 baht banknotes. Chinese too.

But no, lets arrest silly Russian kid who tries to make living by showing Wat Chalong to a bunch of tourists. 

Why so?

Obviously a smear campaign......Russians acting illegally?.......never.

Because they're taking work away from locals. 

 

Do you know what a "logical fallacy" is?  Your position is based on one.

Did President Poopy Pants visit Thailand?  Hope his handler brought along the diaper bag.

Why is this story even here? Nothing was found.

A friend of mine who knows some Russian businessmen well, and spends a lot of time in Russia, tell me that there are very, very few Russians that are earning over $100,000 a year that are not involved in crime. 

 

It is a bit of a stretch to classify a tour guide as a criminal but it is what it is.
