Which begs the question... what was Khun Longrak getting up to while the suspected Russian rammed into his car ?... 

Just the other day there was cheers, happy smiles and handclaps by the TAT boss because the Russians were returning to Phuket.  

 

Look out Phuket here they come!

They want to arrest her for hitchhiking? Other than that, she was "doing as the Romans do"
