Own? The bar scene is not their actual business.
Take a look at their bars in Soi Cowboy..... practically empty every night yet they keep expending and acquiring other bars...... to use as laundromat :D

The amount of money that they wash is so huge that even the Chinese underground bankers are no match for them.

really? that happened in china or the rld in korea?, or dolly/kalijodo in jkta, keep on wishful thinking...best case scenario is that it moves online then smart savvy hunters who can maneuver in the new environment can find gems, the rest who dont know any better will find a few places operated by the rich powerful operators eg japan/macau and will be charged a arm and a leg for the privilege.
Truth is LOCALS dont like or want foreigner accessed sex industry, they keep their own playgrounds for themselves and will try and shut foreigner targeted places esp when countries are moving into middle income bracket where local patronage is sufficient to support itself and doesn't need foreign money

Hi fellas,

Slightly off topic here. Does anyone ever withdraw Thai baht with POSB atm card using Thailand local bank's atm machine that has Cirrcus or Maestro logo? Can share your experience? I know there is a one time transaction fee of SGD7. Is there any other charges or fees from local bank side? Also is the exchange rate competitive?

Thanks for advice.
