Police from the Consumer Protection Police Division and officials from the Thai Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) seized fake food supplements, cosmetics and medicines worth more than 10-million baht in a raid on a warehouse in Bangkok’s Pathumwan district today (Friday).

 

The over 6,000 fake items had been smuggled into Thailand from China and the warehouse, located in the Bantadthong area, is owned by a Chinese national, according to the police.

 

The fake products were being offered for sale online and many consumers had already bought them, believing them to be authentic.

More like 6 million fake items are smuggled into Thailand to be sold on line,

and if you take all the fake items of the market on-line sales will shrink by 2/3.

NO, more likely either corrupt officials or just plain ignored in incoming shipments due to extended lunch break
