    Jobless Cambodian man kidnapped two female beggars who paid 30,000 bahts ransom. I never have any doubt that female has more brain than male. Beggary can profit the man if he instead of kidnapping well todo beggars but learns the art of begging from them.

    The Thai police have an uncanny ability to extract confessions. I have seen this for almost 15 years now. Just what in the hell do they do to these 'suspects' to get such quick admissions and confessions. Amazing and at the same time very scarey!

    arrested criminals in Thailand easily confessed the crimes they committed, it's very unusual because not like this in other countries that i've been to. I just wonder what could have been their techniques///.... congratulations anyways for a job well done for now///
