Just a case of musical chairs---the smaller players are getting ousted, that's about it. Everything's going corporate and large-scale now.

Organised crime is uninterested in the product.....their only concern is MASSIVE profit margins..........so long as law and enforcement in Thailand are not up to the mark, it will be wide ope to exploitation by organised crime.

Corruption within the enforcement agencies just makes it all that much easier for those gangs.

well TAT did welcome the Russians with open arms, not that all are bad but it was easy to what was happening as soon as they started opening bars all over the place. you only have to look to Europe plenty of information available on Russian Mafia & how they take over.

"There were 266 foreigners from 101 countries in Thai prisons, he said"

Another factually challenged Thai government official. All dutifully scooped up and regurgitated by the useful idiot journalists without question.

Dead right, there are thousands.

OK but I doubt they are here to commit crimes. Although some of these feeder groups as you call them should be put away for fashion crimes

Best one I ever saw was a rough looking guy in China wearing a stylish black leather jacket on his Harley.

On the back, beautifully embroidered in pink: Kotex.

Hey, if the authorities truly knows these 20+ Criminal gangs, why cant they simply eliminate the treat in any possible way them seem appropriate??? How hard it is to clean the country from these low life scam bags?

Surely there is room for an Australian crime gang to increase the competition and make it a more even playing field.
