bendejo Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Malaysia is quite friendly to Iranians, and LOS LE is quite receptive to cash donations. Not a good combination. Yet another case of "the fault is not in the foreigners, but in ourselves." (apologies William S.) The old timers in here might recall the incident, maybe 10 or so years ago, when an Iranian with a bomb in a suitcase blew his legs off on a Bangkok street, I think it was in Thonglor. Also around that time it seemed hardly a day passed without a report from Swampy that they caught yet another Iranian trying to smuggle ice. Gave the impression they were selling the stuff at the duty-free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SatEng Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 A few years ago I was asked by a certain Thai government agency to attend a seminar in Chiang Mai. They said while I was there could I discuss with some representatives from Iran about possible collaboration on a satellite program Of course I refused The RTP would be better just asking other government departments what meetings have been arranged.
