Sell your souls to the Russian mafia. First they buy your bars, then they bring in their AIDS infested prostitutes, and then the heroine, and then comes enslaving your daughters by hooking them on drugs, impoverishing them to where they share needles and they too are victims of the Russian HIV epidemic. Big mistake you are making Thailand.
