You know that 'biggest bust in Thailand' from a couple of weeks ago?
I have a photo of three of those bags of ice on someone's coffee table last week.
It's a revolving door... Police bust the dealers and then sell on the drugs themselves.
The only thing that changes is who gets the money.

I know that it is not possible to stop[ all smuggling, but the attitude of this government appears to be more serious about confronting this problem that previously.
