Popular Post ChrisY1 Posted November 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) And they continue to resist issuing arrest warrants for the Thai big men involved in the drug trade.....much, not all, of the drug supply does come from bordering countries, however....it just doesn't get stacked into some yokels pick-up for delivery in the country unless markets are established here for the successful distribution........

marcusd Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Well moving through small VILLAGES like Chiang Mai must go almost unnoticed because hardly any people there. THIS is the KEY area for the last 50 years and why so many people here are so wealthy. KNOW to EVERY drug agency world wide. And they are NOT going to stop it because too many powerful people in control. Only the minions will get sacrificed as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOC Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 They can issue as many arrest warrants as they want, as long as the supposed law-enforcers are paid big money by the syndicates, nothing is going to change!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 So when are they finally going to issue arrest warrants for the local drug lords back home here in Thailand. You know, those "influential persons" who make a pretty buck by importing drugs and selling them to the local populace? Some of them have been known for years, if not decades. Thailand - oh so concerned whenever "foreigners" are involved, but never interested in cleaning up its own backyard. After all, it might jeopardize that new Mercedes next year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustBucket Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 How about Tit for Tat? http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/nov/05/burma-thailand-britons-murder-investigation So basically the UK foreign Office are saying they don't believe a word of the Thais in this investigation. That means the UK police here are reporting back that this whole setup is 100% BS. Things are looking interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFong Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Can't imagine what Thailand will say, when arrest warrants are issued for some of their people in the Kho Tao murders, Does this not open the door for that, assuming the calls for a new investigation turns into a chorus?
