13kg of Cannabis Found in Krabi Airport Bathroom Suitcase
British Tourist Faces 10-Year Sentence for Cannabis Smuggling in Krabi Picture courtesy of The Daily Mail Daniel James Hallett, a 38-year-old British tourist from Hull, is potentially facing a decade-long prison sentence in Thailand after allegedly attempting to smuggle 38 kilos of cannabis at Krabi Airport. Hallett, formerly a haulage company owner, was detained on March 8 as he tried to board a flight to London, following suspicions raised by customs officials during routine security checks. Officials discovered 35 vacuum-sealed packages of cannabis flowers cleverly concealed in his luggage with additional layers to disguise the scent. Captured at the airport wearing a charity t-shirt, Hallett was beside two massive suitcases alleged to contain the illegal substance. After the seizure of the cannabis, Hallett was taken to Nua Khlong District Police Station, with investigations underway regarding the smuggling attempt. He is charged under the Thai Customs Act and Traditional Thai Medicine Protection and Promotion Act for attempting to export controlled substances without permission. Police Colonel Apichat Jinaphen stressed the severity of the charges, clarifying that although cannabis is legal in Thailand, export without proper clearance violates the law. Hallett faces a potential sentence of up to 10 years, along with possible fines and confiscation of the illicit goods. With heightened airport security following numerous smuggling attempts, authorities urge tourists to respect Thailand’s nuanced cannabis regulations. Hallett's arrest marks the latest incident in a series of foreign nationals caught in similar offenses over the past year, reported The Thaiger. -- 2025-03-12 -

Could Trump's plan fail in a spectacular fashion?
Trump is not causing any chaos. The correction was overdue and everyone knew it. As for a 16 year recession, the chances of that are nil. -

Ukraine Backs U.S. Ceasefire Proposal, Awaiting Russian Response
You can bet that there will be no NATO troops of any kind. Russia absolutely needs security. Do you understand why? There used to be short and intermediate range missile treaties that Trump cancelled. That left Russia at the mercy of whatever missiles NATO might place in Ukraine within striking distance of Russia strategic assets in Russia. For them, it's an existential issue and it's going to be done their way. As for England and France and their pledge of billions to fight Russia? Everyone knows that's a joke. They don't have the money and they don't have the troops. It's over. -
