NobbyClarke Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 There was an invasion of Russian tourists//money//mafia after the tsunami (if my memory is correct) and alough a few remained most returned. The one's here this time do not want to fight for their country and I suspect most will return at a later date or end up in jail for overstay and criminal activity. Of course the good ones will spend their money, not cause trouble, enjoy their family holiday and return on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expat_4_life Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) Between the Middle East, Ukraine and the rise of BRICS, uncertainty abounds. Good move by the Thais, keep relations with the Russians on friendly terms. Edited April 24 by expat_4_life 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackGats Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Those nationalities basically get a "stay as long as you like" deal. Like an LTR visa but free of charge. There's no mistaking the way the wind is blowing. It's game over for Farangs in Thailand. (Has been for some time judging by girls' attitudes by the way). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Tongue Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Thailand has always placated stronger warlike and aggressive countries, it's how Siam has always survived without being colonized. This is just a modern version I would suspect. But the Thais also had the habit of turning on anyone if they showed weakness. I suspect this happening too, if given the opportunity. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sure there are a few <deleted> but they are a minority and not nearly as loud or obnoxious as the Chinese and at least they support local Thai businesses, at least they don't arrive here in large groups and follow some guide with a toy on a stick to only Chinese run shops, most Russians I see here are family oriented and just like everyone else. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Russia will give them free visa travel , every Thai person I talk to tell me all the time , they want to visit Russia 😂 Also the Chinese have been leaving in their droves after the terrorist attack in Moscow but a lot also leave because of blatant racism .

Cabradelmar Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 These periodic renewals of Russian visa exemptions are like the old COVID extensions. Except the danger is not getting COVID (or hoping to avoid it), but rather getting scammed, robbed or assaulted by a drunk or surly Russian (because there are more of them). At least they reduced the latest "Russian COVID" visa exemption from 90 to 60 days, so there's that. Progress. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the russian invasion in the early 2000s they threw their weight around for a couple of years down walking street and mafia elements tried to aggressively expand into other soi,s until it their reign was tragically cut short by local "residents" and they were chased out hopefully history will repeat itself and they will be expelled again. 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
