The activities were going on steady with the boxing business in Thailand until the financial crisis of Thailand in 1997 and the business was also influenced.

In 2003 there was a former Japanese boxer named Mr.Kozuke Sasaki - who once was Thai boxing champion in Japan- visited the camp and had much  interested in the art of Thai boxing. At the same time Mr.Robert Cox, an English man who was highly educated in Thai boxing, joined the camp and together established the KRS gym by using the name from three people, Kaisang, Robert and Sasaki. By this time there were boxers from abroad joining the camp and some of whom became world champion in Muay Thai, such as: Mr.Rudolf Dureka from Slovakia, Mr.Kenko Yamakami and Mr.Mazamise Hirashima from Japan, as well as well-known European fighter Ole Larsen from Denmark. Larsen then married a Thai lady and established a new camp called Legacy Gym in Ubon. Mr.Cox had a new camp called Kaewsamrit gym at Bangkok and also Mr.Sasaki went back to Japan and opens a Thai boxing camp at Hiroshima. Those people and their colleagues are still associated with the K.R.S. Gym.
