Gen Prayut invites Russia to invest in Thailand

[starky]

What does Russia have to offer, other than military hardware, and the tools of repressive governance?

Which happens to be just what the Junta are looking for.

why would Russians with a ruble that is worth half of what it was to the Thai baht 4 years ago want to invest in Thailand?

Because they would have doubled their money in four years???

Oh they have invested in Thailand. Just go to Pattaya or Phuket and see who bankrolled so many of those tour buses, and not quite legit tour companies!
