PHUKET: -- The committee responsible for operation of Phuket Bus Terminal 2 say the station will soon get additional parking and CCTV cameras. ya ice (crystal methamphetamine) and ya bah (methamphetamine in tablet form) were intercepted at Bus Terminal 1 in Phuket Town.

They typically arrived there in unaccompanied parcels sent as cargo on regularly-scheduled buses, the operators of which offer freight as well as passenger services.

Former Rassada Mayor Surathin Lianudom, who lives right across the street from the station and was largely behind the delay in its opening, cited the possibility of his neighborhood becoming a drug entrepôt as among the many reasons for his resistance to the station opening.
