That explains it all really. Welcome to LOC. Land of corruption.

And does that really come as a surprise to you or to anyone else for that matter?

Just did a search for Lamborghini Gallardo's for sale on a popular Thai website and there are 66 for sale....a search on the No 1 UK car sales website and there are 61 for sale!

Doesn't matter what developed major metropolis you journey to, funny thing is you wont see more luxury cars than you do in Bangkok.

Maybe they tried this trick to drivel the cars out .....

The question is........where does the buck stop at customs or does it ever stop?

Thats different than i see a ford tractor beeing pulled out of a deep ditch by a flock of waterbuffalos

Ever been to LA?

Sounds perfect for a movie plot, maybe they could get Nicholas Cage to star in it.

but what a way to destroy evidence...

Two officials from the Customs Department have been moved to inactive positions pending investigation into their role in the disappearance of some 500 luxury vehicles that went missing from the customs' bonded warehouses.

How about arrested and given a 20 year sentence ?

How about we underline some more to put things in the correct context :

pending investigation into their role in the disappearance
