Wensiensheng... I agree but that is what was stated. Strange but could be possible an inside contact at airport prior to bag inspection.

As stated minus the 46 kilo drug weight she would not have needed 2 suitcases. To state those who planted the drugs were meant to meet her in Sri Lanka but did not turn up does hint at knowledge of the contents.

Lordgrinz she may have had 3 suitcases. Weight is really irrelavent as it was procedure of identifying contents that confused readers.

So having greater choice of brands will increase consumption. Cannot see the logic to that statement. If worried from road toll injuries, deaths why not enforce current laws to help prevent this happening.

Assuming she had two suitcases at approx 23 kilo each so not excessive (she would pay for). Bags going into the hold of plane go through xrays that are programmed to pick up certain parameters if it does not upset them then the bags go onto luggage belt for loading. Organic matter would not set them off as they are primarily looking for explosive devices. Dogs are not seen often in departure baggage make up areas often. If it did set off xray parameters it is viewed by security staff and they have approx seven seconds to view image of case and to clear or send to a secondary belt that can view image and case and can be swabbed for explosive. These staff again are primarily looking for explosive and same staff that man security screenng sites, not specialists.

This was not a discovery by state of the art xrays and certainly not due to irregular shaped packages of drugs. The packages looked very uniform.

Patel is just an absolute clown and an absolute yes man for Trump. You must remember by Trump claiming a state of emergency over fentanyl coming over the border from Mexico and Canada was the only way he could cancel the fantastic trade deals that he himself negotiated and lavished praise on himself for negotiating. Otherwise he would have had to go and seek approval from congress.

Where does the VIP bus leave from. Assuming Northern bus station?

Thanks for the colourful, humorous posts.

I should read before I send... mean should not be welcomed as friends.

I agree with Carney. Until Trump and his henchmen show some respect to other countries they should be welcomed as friends. Trump has little consideration for other countries . His pathetic peoples tax on US citizens dreamt up by some hocus pocus formula and then invited affected export countries to come kiss his arse tells you all that you all you need to know.

To help maybe they should remove signs outside businesses that claim street parking as only for their clientele.

Have a friend transfer funds from Aust. exactly same problem. A very regular user of wise.

I find some comments quite astounding. Americans will pay a 30% Trump tax on Chinese made goods and you say he is a master negotiator. Could you please explain the logic of your claims.

I think you are blowing your Trumpet a little early but enjoy a few hours of glory. USA has many issues to be resolved and the master negotiator has given a massive warning to the world re his trust worthiness which will also cost the USA.

And just to prevent any confusion there is a stipulation in the agreement that states.. .four months prior to the ending of Trumps presidency the plane ownership is to be transferrred to some entity like the Trump Library Trust Foundation that ex presidents seem to establish for some reason.

Thaipo7 in your fair world is Iran not permitted to expand its nuclear capability for use in medical research or is that only for the right wing.

Well by the size of the bandage it must of taken most of his ear off.

Spot on Spidermike, USA has such a history of winning wars since WW2.

This is in complete contrast to reports I read and saw of the encounter between the two. Commentators showed how Carney mastered Trump with comments like " during my campaign I spoke with the owners of Canada and they will never sell". You do not need to mouth off to make a simple factual comment.

He definitely did not bring those items from Aust. to Thailand and as stated he was travelling internally, he would have bought at one of the border shops. He also is a crazy man as anyone knows you cannot board any flight with those items and no screener would have missed whether as checked in or carry on luggage.

I am a kiwi, we are nocturnal.

Should not the letting agent have been more proactive. Property inspections ? If rent was even days late should have been on alert. Tenant is obviously a lowlife but if managed properly and two months bond cleaning, repairs etc would have been taken care of you would think.

Together with all the other dramas including those of foreigners do they see why tourism dropping.

Post regarding cost of keeping him in a hospital room rather than a cell wasn't it reported he paid for his hospitalisation?
