The Thais actually paid police to set up that neat pill display with the colors all arranged and spaced out neatly. This is a really big bust.

Just the usual tired old stock Thai bashing from a very ignorant hater.

........they mention 'charge'....they do not mention 'sentence'....

Oh, I never saw the photo of her bosom.......

she should have set up table sales at sukumwit nana pay rent to police and make the medicines legal.

What do they mean by illegal? Do they mean she was selling real medicine when she was not allowed to?

Was wondering about the cough medicines. The pills might contain codeine, which is a very effective cough medicine. It used to be available over the counter in the Netherlands, but later not anymore, it is an opium derivative and taking a large quantity makes you intoxicated.

thai police prefer people selling FAKE drugs at full price

than real drugs at a bargain
