Donbuie3 Posted April 24, 2024 Posted April 24, 2024 Headline is a bit misleading, in that for 3 months during low season, Russian tourists will be able to enter Thailand visa free for a period of 60 days. They are currently permitted to enter visa free for a period of 90 days. 1
Popular Post dinsdale Posted April 24, 2024 Popular Post Posted April 24, 2024 Come in as tourist. Get ed. visa and set up dodgy company. Buy property in companies name. Not to mention crime syndicates moving in. Thailand: We want quality tourists. How about Russian mafia? Thailand: They'll do. They spend money don't they? 3 1 1 1

ningnong Posted April 24, 2024 Posted April 24, 2024 1 hour ago, hotchilli said: So what's the 300 baht charge for? Judging by comments on that topic "Thai tourism sector proposes 300-baht tax to counter over-tourism" you aren't alone in incorrectly assuming that the intention is to lower tourist numbers. Just another clever Thaiger headline to generate a lot of comments. Since you asked, here are the key points of that topic: 'major tourist destinations like Phuket, Samui, and Pattaya are on the brink of over-tourism' '..a key strategy could be to divert tourists from these hubs to the country’s secondary cities.' 'The additional revenue could be used to develop infrastructure in second-tier provinces, attract tourists away from overcrowded locations, and enhance attractions that have deteriorated due to over-tourism' 2

I have had a greaat run in Thailand for more than 15 years but this country is even more poorly governed than the USA. This country is run by iditots. They want to actively import criminals. Thailand deserves wih it gets. One day they will change the name of this website to "The Daily Russian Crime Report". The big wigs in Bangkok do not give a damn about the Thai people. They only care about money. The reason the Russian flock here is quite simple, OTHER COUNTRIES DON'T WANT THEM. You lived here for 15 years and just realized that Money is #1 in Thailand....5555. Been like that for decades. No Thai is forcing anyone to stay here. Once folks realize that, life can be fine here. I am an American and will deal with the crap here in Thailand than to go back and retire in that once great country. Thailand is a paradise compared to the nightmare that is America right now. Also, money is worshipped in America, so God bless the Thais for doing the same thing. 1 2 1
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted April 24, 2024 Popular Post Posted April 24, 2024 My guess is that the army still which wields a lot of influence over this administration, has a tremendous amount of admiration for Putin, as they love dictators, and they wish they could be dictators, and they figure why not treat the citizens of dictators exceptionally well? After all, they are model citizens, and show so much kindness, respect and goodwill towards the locals. 2 1 1 2

Shocked farang Posted April 24, 2024 Posted April 24, 2024 3 hours ago, IamNoone88 said: So the solution to Russians causing social problems, running illegal businesses, kidnapping and murder in some cases ... is to invite more of them. You cant make this up. Please correct me if I'm wrong. This problem has roots in the corrupt nature of Thai police. The tendency in the Thai police when they come across all kinds of ilegal activities is to procure their share, their bribe first. This gives a strong message to all criminals that they can get away with anything. 1
