Picture: Thai Rath Chief of the Narcotics Control Board Wanchai Chaimongkhol said yesterday that officers of the AITF (Airport Interdiction Task Force) had found drugs in cushion covers bound for Australia at a depot at Suvarnabhumi on Thursday. The crystal meth was laced in the lining of 11 covers in two separate packages. Authorities had been alerted to the fact that the products were heavier and more rigid than they should be and there were irregularities with the manifest. A total of 13.94 kilos of what the Thais call "ice" was discovered. Picture: Thai Rath The sender and the receiver are known to police and the Australian Federal Police have been contacted. In the last fiscal year Wanchai said there had been 22 cases of drugs being sent to Australia in all manner of ways to fool the authorities, reported Thai Rath. Sending in this manner is economical for the drugs gangs. There have been two arrests - a Thai and a Singaporean - in these cases. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-11-05 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Chiang Mai: Danish man and Thai woman end up in the city moat after night out Picture: Manager Police and rescue services were called after a car was driven into the city moat in Chiang Mai late last night and was submerged. Full story: https://aseannow.com/topic/1276843-chiang-mai-danish-man-and-thai-woman-end-up-in-the-city-moat-after-night-out/

Picture: Manager Police and rescue services were called after a car was driven into the city moat in Chiang Mai late last night and was submerged. It happened near Siam TV on Chang Lo Road in Muang district, reported Manager. At the scene was a wet Danish man aged about 30 dressed only in boxer shorts. He was in a state of shock. He said he had been on a night out. Picture: Manager He said that there was someone trapped in the car who unlike him had been unable to exit the vehicle. Divers found a 40 year old woman unconscious and brought her out and after CPR was given she was rushed to hospital. The Dane kept saying there was someone else in the vehicle and a search was further done over the next two hours as the Honda Brio with Phrae plates was brought out. Picture: Manager But no one else was found so it was assumed that the foreign man was mistaken due to shock. Police took pictures and are interviewing witnesses to try and determine who was driving and what happened. Chiang Mai News in English reported that a 30-40 year old Thai woman had died after being trapped in the car. They said the accident occurred at 12.50 am yesterday. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-11-05 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Only luck can save you in a crush - Rooster remembers his own Hillsborough nightmare OPINION | by Rooster The horrendous tragedy in the nightlife district of Itaewon, Seoul, claimed 156 lives, mostly young people in their twenties. It was truly a Halloween Horror. Full story: https://aseannow.com/topic/1276841-only-luck-can-save-you-in-a-crush-rooster-remembers-his-own-hillsborough-nightmare/

OPINION | by Rooster The horrendous tragedy in the nightlife district of Itaewon, Seoul, claimed 156 lives, mostly young people in their twenties. It was truly a Halloween Horror. For Rooster it brought back all the memories of how I thought I was going to die in a football crowd at Hillsborough, Sheffield, in 1981. Eight years later in the same caged-in Leppings Lane end, 96 Liverpool fans perished. I’ve been a supporter of Tottenham Hotspur all my life - yes that’s one of the crosses I must bear - and I was in the north of England with my sister and a friend to watch Spurs in the semi-finals of the FA Cup against Wolves. History says the game ended 2-2. It’s a pity that the authorities didn’t learn lessons that might have saved the Liverpool fans in 1989. Aged nine one of my earliest memories of disaster was the crush at Ibrox, Glasgow in 1971. Sixty six died in a match between Rangers and Celtic. In my naivete I thought that was a one-off though I remember my mother mentioning a tragedy at Bethnal Green tube station during the Blitz. The incident in Seoul, and another crush at an Indonesian football stadium a month ago that claimed 131 lives, are fresh examples of the dangers of putting too many people in too small an area. Or of hopeless policing causing stampedes. We arrived at Hillsborough early for the big match and very soon our end was filling up as we stood and waited anxiously for the match to begin. We were penned in behind fences due to regulations to stop hooliganism and pitch invasions. But as kick-off approached huge numbers of fans started pouring in and the crowd seemed to take on a life of its own. I managed to stay close to my sister but our friend was kind of carried away in the throng. He screamed that he had lost his shoes. What was happening? I’d been in huge crowds many times but this was different. It was moving. Alive. I felt as though my feet were no longer in touch with the ground; I had no power to move, I was just being transported against my will. It was terrifying. People were screaming and trying to clamber over the fence. We were pushed to the front and just when I thought that my life was over at 19 an official heeded anguished cries and a gate was opened. We gasped into the open air. We watched the entire match sitting on the touchline. There are videos on YouTube. There were thirty eight injuries including broken arms and a broken leg. Footage of the Spurs game was shown to the jury at an inquest into the 1989 crush in 2014. You really have no power to do anything in a crowd crush. You go where the crush goes. If people fall, you fall and you die from suffocation in seconds. It doesn’t matter if you’re strong and young. You all go the same way and it’s just luck if you survive. With every tragedy I remember that day. When the Liverpool fans died I was already in Thailand. I had to phone my sister in England. We remembered our own near death experience and felt grateful to be alive. Many people are standing again at football in the UK and crowd control measures have been improved. But there were many government and police scandals in covering up what happened. Liverpool supporters were blamed, famously by The Sun newspaper, that to this day cannot be purchased in the city. Their banner headline had been “The Truth” proved decades later as press lies. Throughout the world crushes continue. And it won’t be long until the next one. In Thailand Halloween passed off without such a tragedy. But the Thai media still made as much out of deaths that night as they could. In Chiang Mai a ladyboy - that always seems to add spice - was electrocuted by a fence outside a nightclub. Netizens on TikTok got in a tizzy because a teen dressed up as US serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer who killed 17 people between 1978 and 1991. Dahmer, who had a head bubbling on the stove when his place was searched, seemed a perfectly good character to emulate for Halloween shock. Why the outrage? At least it wasn’t Hitler as it usually is in Thailand! Best forum comment of the week came from JeffersLos who quipped: “They’ll be dressing up as Prince Andrew soon”. Now that would be scary, especially for teenage girls. Having sex with teenage girls aged 14 and 15 in Pattaya were two foreigners. Disgraceful and hopefully they will be jailed for a decade on statutory rape charges along with the Thais who provided the girls. The forum whoremongers made their excuses about Thais looking young and even took part in victim blaming. Your names have been noted though I’d prefer if other moderators had already banned you. I’m not banning anyone…yet. Though I do make some referrals. In several stories it felt like pre-pandemic times. Tourists were returning in the proverbial “droves” at long last. There were not enough booths opened at Suwannaphum (my spelling) that had the netwits in a lather and immigration scurrying. Foreigners were also arriving in Ayutthaya to see the ruins after Forbes listed them as a “must see”. Don’t worry - very soon there will be stories about foreigners walking over them or a couple of Brits coupling behind a Buddha. Tourism is back even if that annoys the forum curmudgeons who think everything is a TAT conspiracy and seem to relish the prospect of Thais in the industry continuing to suffer. One of the weirdest and largely unexplained stories was of a “Big Farang” (he looked 10 months pregnant) who stole a taxi from Krabi airport. The Norwegian heffalump was eventually cornered in a grocer’s toilet after stopping for a soda. Not surprisingly he was incoherent. Quality tourist….. Other quality tourists creating much news in the last couple of weeks are Chinese druggies taking something called “Happy Water”. This has all resulted in crackdowns on Chinese owned establishments in Bangkok and Pattaya that essentially are running “Soon Rian” (zero dollar or zero baht) tours to Thailand. These are tours where all the goods come from China and all the profits go back there. That’s much more important than the drug taking. The Thais can’t stand it when the Chinese - or anyone else come to that - puts one over on them. Big Joke and Big Tor - generals Surachate and Torsak - swung into action with dozens of raids. Chuwit Kamolwisit said “I told you so” as “David” was arrested with 100 million baht’s worth of luxury red plate cars. Chuwit had put together a dossier that resulted in four Chinese owners being nabbed. Hundreds of patrons had their pee tested. The cops could equally have tested smoke and mirrors. That’s because like gambling dens, everyone knows what is going on and where. And the RTP are ALWAYS involved in the mischief. They are Thailand’s biggest mafia. I suspect that Big Joke is clean but I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m proved wrong one day! Then he’ll make the ideal candidate for next PM! In international news the two Koreas started setting off missiles with gay abandon. Kim was apparently trying to get Uncle Joe’s attention. In Brazil Lula won the election and Covid denier Bolsonaro refused to concede defeat. Probably a friend of Drumph who never loses and is never wrong. I long for the day when they’ll both be in Orange Jump Suits. The World Cup in Catarrh drew ever closer as the regime there continued to spout lies about the death of 6,500 migrant workers using their official mouthpiece, Al Jiz. One poster on the forum said that his “moral compass” did not allow him to watch. Mind you he is Scottish (the ignominious exits from the Champions league of Rangers and Celtic showing once again the dire state of football north of Hadrian’s Wall). Rooster had toyed with the idea of not watching the World Cup as I despise Catarrh (not to mention Dubai). But I'm going to be two faced as I love the game too much. I’ll even be writing an ASEAN NOW daily round-up during the tournament with my own spin on the news and results. Look out for it if you’re a lover of The Beautiful Game. It starts two weeks from tomorrow. Back in Thailand the law was changed to allow more people to brew beer and wine and make spirits. It was a bit unclear and there were indications larger operators would need licenses and have to undergo quality control measures. At Rooster Central in Ratchayothin I’ve been brewing for a while. As a teen in England I used to make beer and wine financed by my dad. I also rigged up a distillery aged 14. So I have some limited expertise. Home brewing has always felt something of a no-no in Thailand with its bizarre booze laws but there are many sellers of equipment like yeast, sterilizing agents, siphons and airlocks online. I’m not a great drinker but I enjoy the challenge of trying to make something potable from grape juice, passionfruit, Makro strawberries and the like. If it turns out to be horrible I have some ready made Xmas presents for people I don’t like. Column detractors, please note. My father-in-law in Loei has always made something called “sato” from rice mash. Saves on the lao khao I suppose….. Most notable accidents of the week were an old lady who had a seizure and fell into a charcoal burner in Rayong and a mother and father who left their children orphaned when a ten wheel trucker who was drunk plowed into them in the north east. Prayut had tried to stop people traveling in the bed of pick-ups but like most everything he’s done it was a total failure. To be fair to our leader who art in khaki, hollow be thy name, he was always on a loser with that one in Thailand. Finally kudos to a Thai/Scottish luuk khreung who goes by the name of Psi Scott on Facebook who did a 30 kilometer round trip swim to an island in Krabi. Psi is determined to raise awareness about the appalling amount of plastics in our seas and is working on advancing marine ecology. We all need to do our bit to use less single use plastic and press food producers to improve their packaging for the sake of the environment. Microplastics are already poisoning every man, woman and child on earth but it’s never too late to try and make a difference for our children’s future. Well done Psi, even if your name is all Greek to me.
