Over 200 people have died in Burma close to the border of Thailand from the hurricane sweeping in from the sea. The power and water has been out in Rangoon when the winds turned into 190 km / hour. Cyclone Nargis is now moving into Thailand but when it moves over land its losses power but there is still a Travel warning.

The Burmese work seekers that did not die in the container for frozen sea food has been sentenced to 3 days in prison. Good work Thailand you have not arrested the person responsibly for the smuggling but you gave people that most certain lost a friend or relative in this sad story 3 days in the can.

How difficult can it be? The truck has a registration plate then you can see the persons name and address. The truck driver works for a company because he can not afford the truck himself. So go to the truck company and arrest them or at least search for more evidence they probably smuggle people all the time.

No sorry I forget the truck company is owned by some high connected person and a dead Burmese is not a good Burmese because he can not work cased closed.

The Thai government has done another blunder and showing the word that they are not a friend of human rights.

Over 50 Burmese refuges or workers trying to get in to Thailand was suffocated when they was transported in a cooling container. Normally the air-conditioner in the car should be on and let air in but the driver did not do that.

When the driver of the car heard some banging on the back he went to check and saw all the dead people. He then fled the scene and has not been found yet.

So what did the Thai government do about this? Well they went into swift action and arrested all survives.

The human smugglers and criminals that make 5000 THB per person dead or alive from this will off course not be arrested they have protection from above.

Saw the news last night about the Swedish girl that got murdered on a beach in Phuket. Really sad that 10 guys have to stand around here and look at her and show her dead body to the “press”. I am sure some of this people have no press id and just going to collect the photo for the website or something like that.

The Thai Police and medical staff really have to start treating people with respect even if they are dead not to talk about evidence. How many hands have touched her body before the forensic arrives?

I am sure the rescue staff that volunteer have done a great deal for the Thai country but they have nothing to do in a morgue opening up the white sheets the Swedish girl was wrapped in.

Let’s hope the Thai Police get the right person, right now it looks like they pointing finger at some fishermen and most of them are Burmese. But with over 50 or more unsolved fisherman killings the last years around Phuket can they solve this?
