I'm sure it started off as a friendly drink and chat....

[Dont confuse me]

If its home to 30 workers there may be a witness or two.

I wonder what causes incidents like this? Is it just the drink, or does the working/living conditions have something to do with it?

Or is it just despair at the way of life.

All of the above, the drink often being the catalyst .

Also money loans, I think.

Let's see if the "authorities" somehow tie this to the foreign tourist that was just found murdered.

 

Probably not, but you never know where opportunity may present itself....

In that case dear Watson, the suspects may not be from Myanmar
