They 've raised the ante, 300,000, instead of the usual 10,000baht

Inside the packs are 325,000 meths.

1. Inside the "packs" were a lot more, or 2. A lot less are inside the "packs" now. Most of it will go to places like Ko Phanghan anyway.

And not long they'll burn something that looks very similar. Great job !!!

P.S. No tip off? C'Mon...........
