Thai anti-narcotics officials seized about 44 kilogrammes of heroin and 21 grams of crystal methamphetamine (Ice) in raids on two houses in Samut Prakan yesterday (Monday). A Hong Kong man and a Thai national were taken into custody.

Narcotic Control Board (ONCB) officers raided a rented house in Soi Kanchanapisek 39, where they found about 30kg of heroin hidden in a cardboard box and about to be sent abroad.

The man from Hong Kong and a Thai from Chiang Rai Province, were in the rented house at the time of the raid. Both men were then taken into custody for further questioning.

I remember the first time I came here and arrived at the old airport - big digital sign - 'Drug Smuggling carries the death sentence' - just rather a shame they dont enforce it

It must have been a large and very strong cardboard box. Just think of the times you have picked up a suitcase weighing around 25kg and been surprised at the heaviness. Now get on your knees and lift out a 30kg box from under a floor........????

Have you changed… or has Thailand?

Merlin · Saturday at 08:09 AM1 day

When I first came here, it was all pretty predictable. Nights out, bars, always somewhere busy. That was the routine. These days it’s different. Quieter, less going out. I still drop in now and then, but it’s not the center of things anymore. The scene itself feels different too.Fewer girls around, or just moved online? Prices definitely not what they used to be Thailand not quite the “cheap” place it once was So sometimes I wonder… has the place changed, or have I? Do you still live the same

Iran Moves To Monetise Hormuz — And Hold World To Ransom Iran has raised the stakes in its war diplomacy with a bold new demand: recognition of its control over the Strait of Hormuz — a move that could generate billions while tightening its grip on the global economy. The narrow waterway, through which roughly a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas flows, has become Tehran’s most powerful weapon. Now, Iranian officials want to turn that leverage into a permanent economic and geo

richard_smith237 replied to Georgealbert's topic in Thailand News - Discussion

When is something going to be done about what? You really need his point spelling out - there are seemingly a lot of suicides in these areas - investigation into whether this is disproportionate or not wouldn't go amiss - something 'done' ? - something could be done - for example: Vegas is engineered against 'jumpers' with most hotels not having balcony's or roof access etc. You were planning on completely wasting the charity's time? Unbelievable. If there’s no official audit, that’s a fair point to raise. In most discussions involving a suicide, there’s typically a follow-up comment after the initial report that provides a Samaritans support line. But if that line isn’t actually staffed at the time, then those offers of support amount to little more than empty words.

You don't need the date you are leaving. Any date will do. The reentry permit will be valid from issue date till extension expiry. You can buy single reentry 1000b or multi 3800b Note reentry permits can be obtained at airport on day of exit from Thailand. They have optional service fee of 200b and you just hand over pp. Not even the TM8, Photo etc required. They provide all

Casualty of War: Commander Leigh R. Tate?

GammaGlobulin · 1 hour ago1 hr

Dear Folks, Do you feel sorry for the US Navy Officers Commander Leigh R Tate and Executive Officer Jeffrey E York of the USS Spruance? Recently, it seems that these two officers have been “outed” by various embassies and news services for being in command of the vessel which fired three missiles at a school, ending the lives of about 170 school girls. Can this be true? Of course, this cannot be good news for the two officers. Are they not also casualties of the Israeli-American decision to

So, according to the headlines today Thailand has 60 days fuel left! This will undoubtedly mean that it wont be long before stock deliveries to stores start being affected. May be common household supplies will start to become fewer on the shelves? Deliveries no longer possible. I see Japan had a run on ttoilet tissue of all things. How long before this starts to bite the average household? Is it time to start prepping? stock up on bottled water, sacks of rice, stock up the freezer ? Thoug

Credit: the author, Google, BBC, Reddit, Quora, The Conversation. Proposed by Ghana, a major victim, 123 UN members have just declared the slave trade to be “the gravest crime against humanity”. The United States, Israel and Argentina voted against it. Fifty-two countries abstained, among them the UK and European states. WTF! Pulling down Confederate statues and renaming buildings doesn’t change the fact that an entire population fought a war to keep their slaves. When the war was over and th
