Steely Dan Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 An old woman could have carried far more in her underwear and been less likely to be searched too I would venture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimay1 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 An old woman could have carried far more in her underwear and been less likely to be searched too I would venture. Especially if she wears a bra with zip pouches like my old gf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilish Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 She had probably been spotted before if this was her 3rd smuggling trip. . . also, beeing seen w/ the Nigerian may have raised a red flag. . . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noitom Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 So the headline should properly state "Two Thai women and one Nigerian man" rather just "two women and a Nigerian man." Singling out the Nigerian and not distinguishing the two Thai women as Thai is a high form of discrimination typical of Thais. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, Most country's Press might report the nationality of a foreigner, but see no need to report the nationality of locals. The Press attempt to write succinct and interesting articles for their local readership, not an all inclusive report with every known fact.
