They also had plenty of pictures of officials standing proudly after a drugs bust.

Prescription sedative used to be for sale in Burmese and Cambodian pharmacies over the counter.

 

Class 2.. hardly worth the media hype.

Meanwhile the price of Yabba is at historical lows and beng used and sold everywhere all over the country and they can't stop it.

 

Something tells me they've got their priorities wrong - why don't they arrest the people who run the drugs distribution all over the country?

 

I'm sure they know who they are, but that might be the reason why they're not arrested.
