Walking Street has been exclusively Thai for decades, ... never seen a bar with Japanese girls, Korean girls, European Girls, Aussie Girls, American Girls, Latin girls, ... only Thai, with a smattering of Burmese, Cambodian and Laotian, ... but Russians are taking over all the prime beach resorts so this is no surprise. It is also the only place left they can arrive without a visa

So, do you reckon Thailand should reimpose visa requirements for Russians? Maybe this would give them the chance to stop known criminals at the border.

Witch eyed spooky lookin buggers, best avoided!

Just Russian MOB infiltrating in Thailand

with money you can buy a lot

The question in everyone's mind: Do they have work permits?

They will get one if they can prove they can do something a Thai can't.

Slowly guys !!

Why worry so much about it?

Some of them are stunners, that is what I care about

Yeah, real stunners. In Chawaeng, there is a club where Eurp girls dance. I went in one with a friend who wanted to see some white girls. This heavily made-up bleached blond sat next to me and said she would talk to me if I would buy her a drink. I told her no thanks. She got a bit upset, and insisted I buy her a drink and she would let me touch her. Again, I said no thanks. The blond Eurp got really pushy and demanded a drink. I ignored her and asked the Thai waitress to sit down. The blond bimbo got irate and started screaming at the Thai girl. Yeah, real stunners.

Heck, they've been here for at least 10 years. Sometimes kind of fun to see a natural set of big hooters.

There are some "Russians" that have some obvious Asian partial look to them. Mongol borders, Chinese border influence, ancestors etc.

I read a story once they are issued WP as Entertainers , which is I suppose what u might call it ! I think it was in Phuket when I lived there .

You ever see them smile though

Asians are very interested in falangs.

Curios to what extent of 'performance' does 'Performer visa' entail

Also see many Russians tour reps in the various tour company's uniform staying for months on end... Tour guides are protected job for thais... they are probably classed in other capacity in their work permit(if they have one at all) but they are essentially working as tour guide....
