As someone employed in Australia's criminal "justice" ("Just Ice" is found at the North Pole) system for over 20 years I have seen the junkies come and go and seen their death notices in the papers put in by grieving parents who blame themselves and can't but think of their lovely child who they watched slowly kill temselves.. Amphetamines - "Ice" - are highly addictive because of the "rush" the users get out of it. In a very short time a small bit at a party (usually whilst under the influence of alcohol) can turn into a raging drug habit.

Some people are making huge amounts of money out of it. The ripple effects throughout our community are enormous. It is a problem that all nations must deal with.

But one thing is for sure - this particular Iranian / Swede will not be part of the problem again.

4.3kg of the stuff is worth a lot of money. As far as I am concerned I have no sympathy for him. He gambled his life and lost. No different than a drunk getting behind a wheel and killing a whole family.

My point exactly.I've got a cop and two prison warders in my family who've helped shape my views. 'No different to a drunk getting behind the wheel and killing a whole family'. However while he is roundly condemned noone seems to apply the same 'moral' standards to those who sold the drunk his alcohol. Not arguing for or against prohibition although the laws on ganja could be changed as they criminalise a large group of decent law abiding citizens who pay their way in society but pointing to how standards of moral judgement aren't applied equally. That's all.

If you're going to applaud the execution of drug traffickers - would you hold peddlars of whisky etc to the same standard -given that alcohol abuse wreaks havoc on the roads and in families in cases of domestic violence and in the community in cases of random and premeditated violence ??. Or perhaps those whose superannuation and pension funds invest in companies that manufacture arms and weapons of war.....which often do untold damage to innocent civilians....Just wondering because the holier than thou mentality of some of the would be local lynch mobbers is pretty nauseating. Where do you draw the line?

get a life! there is no comparison between booze and narcotics! you are just a bleeding heart! best keep your ass out of malasia when using your drugs!

I don't use drugs so I don't have to worry about that. As for no comparison you're right there is for more violence caused through alcohol abuse. Ice by way is not a narcotic it's an amphetamine.

That's last years list - 12 months out of date.

Apirak was set up. A TRT hatchet job.This reporter. seems a bit hazy on the facts - the fire truck deal was the work of two ministers in Thaksins govt and ex Governor Samak. Then Apirak came into office and didn't want to sign the purchase papers as he smelt a rat but was was instructed to by the Minster for the Interior, dirty Pokin Polakul, thus implicating himself in a scandal which he basically had nothing to do with. So he resigned to take responsibility for his part while Thaksins ministers brought down a popular governor and the guilty parties lived to fight and plunder another day.

""The BMA’s disaster prevention unit "" Isn't that an oxymoron ? Wherever and whenever it's possible to f#$k up you can be sure that Thai public officials/servants will f#$k up.

This man ought to relocate his office to a more appropriate location....somewhere in Silom or lower Sukhumvit or perhaps Petchaburi....it's pretty clear what his job title should be too

'Traveling at a high speed' What's the hurry <deleted> ! And a 'brake malfunction' AGAIN ! The bus companies really need to wake up and set and enforce safety standards because this happens TOO ofteb and it's preventable.These are school kids - just doesn't seem right.

I thought they were called katoey.

LOL

So we now have confirmation that she thinks.

If they don't know the identity of the Swede, then how do they know he has left the country....

Since Cambodia and Thailand drive on different sides of the road, the bus is going to have wheel on the wrong side for part of the journey (probably the Camb segment) which is something of a safety issue....

Safety ? What's that ?

What utter lowlifes.

Amazing how many locals are mental health experts

This piece of English crap is going to kill himself,,, which is ok with me as he is a low life looking for his dog, which brings a question,,, is the dog still alive??? the American that kicked his face in is not, so where is the dog,,,I'm an animal lover,,,,,,,,,, Better yet I have never been in that 7/11 and had knifes thrown at me???? it must be a British thing,,,,, the law between the Thais and the Brits is simple,,, you plead guilty to your crimes and get life if you waste the courts time then you get the death penalty,,,, I pray to god that this piece of garbidge gets life in a Thai prison,,,, the pitbull will be now known as the pumping chawawwara,,,, I hope Martin Carpenter the British council has a lot of vasalean for this garbidge from England he will need it

I gather you are not an admirer and do not believe his story. However it is for the court to decide if his 'cock & bull' story is believable. They will examine witnesses and also listen to his account. If he is found guilty then I would be in favour of the harshest possible penalty.

I am as appalled by this whole matter as the posters on this site, and for once can understand the harshness of many comments. BUT it has often been said on this forum that people are judged by the press and the Thai system before they have had a fair trial, and that that is not justice. Whatever the feelings it is hypercritical of posters to want 'fairness' in many cases outlined on this forum, yet happily condemn before trial in this case. Let the trial be held and give him his chance to put his case. If he is found guilty I will be amongst those on this forum who wish him the worst possible future.

I guess you must be an embarresed English man/women,,,, but I was there and saw what happened ,,,,did you????????????????????? Proberly NOT

Who do you think you are that you can tar every Englishman with the same brush?

Not just this piece of crap but you had to add English piece of crap.

Must be a Brit thing you say your just a great stirrer of sh*t.

Yes let the piece of sh*t rot but why be such a <deleted> about it.

My country England does have its fair share of idiots as do most countries.

I served in the military and I am proud of my country even if its not quite GREAT Britain anymore.

Whats your problem? Where are you from that is so great?

You come across as someone whose been there done that so give it a rest bashing flower

He certainly is a creative speller.

Chalerm if you do want these guys to turn themselves in you one huge obstacle is convincing them that they would be treated fairly while in custody. Sadly history suggests otherwise.

He looks sh#tfaced. Glad I'm not in his shoes today ...

Aint love grand..lol

Sounds like Thaksin junior has been told be throw a bit of mud Abhisits way . Bit crass to use your offspring that way.
