British Man Held in Cambodia Over 20kg Airport Drug Bust
mikeymike100 replied to geovalin's topic in Cambodia News
Smuggling 20 kilograms of marijuana could result in 7 years to life imprisonment, with a likely sentence closer to 15–20 years or more, depending on judicial discretion, the defendant’s role (e.g., organizer vs. courier), and aggravating factors like intent to distribute. A 2025 case in Phnom Penh involving a British national caught with 20 kilograms of cannabis, reported on , June 20, 2025), faced charges that could lead to life imprisonment, indicating 20 kilograms is treated as a serious trafficking offense. Fines: Courts may impose fines ranging from 10 million to 50 million Cambodian riel (approximately $2,500 to $12,500 USD), alongside asset seizure related to the crime. No Death Penalty: Unlike some Southeast Asian countries (e.g., Indonesia, Malaysia), Cambodia does not impose the death penalty for drug trafficking, as confirmed by legal sources and the absence of such penalties in reported cases. -
Well if I could that, I wouldn't be asking for an explanation!

USA Trump to make decision on US involvement 'within two weeks'
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Well let's see looks like some folks want President Trump to 'hurry up' and make his mind up on a decision that could have global effects, to say nothing of WW3. Surely waiting to see if this can be worked out 'peacefully' would be more prudent? -

Crazy, risking maybe 10 years in a Cambodian prison, at least he won't get the death penalty! -
Absolutely.... The Mahagitsiris are often called the “Nescafé godfather” family in Thai media due to their long-standing coffee empire. Their wealth and political ties (e.g., Prayudh’s Thai Rak Thai role) make them influential but controversial, with critics noting their legal troubles as evidence of systemic corruption among Thailand’s elite. In summary, the Mahagitsiri family is a powerful Thai business clan with a $2.5 billion fortune, rooted in coffee, shipping, real estate, and franchises, led by Prayudh and his children Chalermchai and Ausana

In fairness, Harris raised 1.6x more overall, 2.5x more by campaign committee. Kamala Harris Campaign: Raised $2.9 billion total, $997.2 million by campaign committee. Donald Trump Campaign: Raised $1.8 billion total, $388 million by campaign committee. So if money was a factor, Kamala should of won????? Money didn’t overcome voter discontent, bias, or Trump’s messaging.

UK Breaking Barriers: Blaise Metreweli Becomes First Woman to Lead MI6
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
"The all-female shortlist was designed to level the playing field, given that women made up only 37% of MI6 staff in 2016, with even lower representation in senior roles. By 2025, MI6 aimed for 47% female staff quota, showing a structural effort to create equitable pathways." Putting people in jobs to fill quotas, instead of merit, is DEI, in a nutshell.! Another red flag..."The all-female shortlist was designed to level the playing field, given that women made up only 37% of MI6 staff in 2016, with even lower representation in senior roles" If it read to put the best person in with the ability to do the job, OK fair enough, but clearly this is not what is said. -

UK Breaking Barriers: Blaise Metreweli Becomes First Woman to Lead MI6
mikeymike100 replied to Social Media's topic in World News
MI6’s leadership, under Sir Richard Moore, explicitly aimed to diversify its senior ranks. The agency’s male-only leadership history (116 years without a female chief) prompted Moore’s 2023 pledge to avoid all-male shortlists. This aligns with DEI principles, which prioritize representation of underrepresented groups, in this case, women in high-level intelligence roles. The all-female shortlist was designed to level the playing field, given that women made up only 37% of MI6 staff in 2016, with even lower representation in senior roles. By 2025, MI6 aimed for 47% female staff quota, showing a structural effort to create equitable pathways. So you can see that MI6 was aiming for a 47% female staff QUOTA? So all this is evidence it was potentially a DEI appointment!
