I wonder if this will lead back to anyone important in Thailand?

Back in the 90's I heard from an airline office worker and a cargo handler, both farangs, that worked at Don Muang airport telling me that a high ranking customs official was involved in allowing certain crates and packages to skip any screening or checks.

 

Probably a few other Thai VIPs in the chain somewhere or other.

 

 

Flour again?

You actually believe that Hong Kong will be less corrupt after the Communists seized control?

 

Yes. A country that routinely executes corrupt officials is going to be more severe on corruption than a bent one, like, er, Thailand, and any corrupt customs etc officials letting this stuff into Hong Kong are probably in for a rude awakening.

I've lived and worked in both HK & China since my first posting in Shanghai with the World Bank back in the '80s.   I am fluent in Mandarin and can understand a few dialects such as Cantonese and Shanghainese.  I am a consultant in infrastructure projects for multinationals spanning Asia, North America, and Europe with some experience in N. Africa and S. America as well.

 

You are sooo wrong.
