WTF - This happened in Rattaphum, northern Songkhla province near the border with Phatthalung not Malaysia. This is an area known for its hitmen and guns for hire. Neither the victim nor his nephew were Muslim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nephew was high on drugs. What kind of drugs was this ? Definitely not Ganja ...! The undisclosed number of mentally deranged people , ( for whatever reason ) , in Thailand is worrying , especially as it comes with a tendency to act violently . For farangs , the golden rule is to not interfere . Only in case somebody close is threatened ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since cannabis wasn't specifically mentioned, and you can be sure it would be if it could be, one assumes methamphetamine was the drug of choice. Meth, the drug of choice given its low cost (1 ~ 5 baht per pill) and tangible physical results, is the scourge of Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
