While I praise the officers for their result, would it not be good to let them deliver the drugs to the Unnamed contacts and get them as well?

Colabamumbai Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Yes in any other country a controlled delivery would be made and the sentence shortened and more people out of the chain, but this is Thailand, only can think in the moment.....

Officially yes (for public consumption and to impress the world), in reality highly unlikely.

lvr181 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) I cannot read the writing on the signs that the two Ethiopians are holding. I can only guess it says "We are dipsticks with single cell brains". 'Dipstick' = slang for idiot, loser, dips**t etc., etc. Plenty of space available to add your own interpretation.
