November 14th, 2009 — Corruption, Crimes, Drugs
The Thai government is planning yet another crack down on drugs and they want to ensure the public that it will not be a violent crack down like last time. This time the crack down will be trough normal police work and take help from military.
They already have a first step of the crack down but it was not very successful the Thai government is now pushing all involved agencies to step up and really make an effort. It can be difficult since some of the Thai police officers might be involved or protecting drug dealers. Thailand have also got criticism for not arresting the “big people” behind the dealers, only the small people get arrested but the masterminds keep finding new dealers.
The crack down will also try to stop people already arrested and punished to going back to the drugs.
The former PM of Thailand Mr Taksin violent crackdown resulted in a killing sprees that left over 2500 people dead. But Thaksins crackdown really had an affect and many people stopped doing or selling drugs from that day. But the drug dealers are now back to normal and since the bad times many people looking for a quick income

An Italy man in Thailand doing Thai boxing was arrested on the Walking Street in Pattaya for selling weed and Norwegian man was arrested for similar charges in his apartment. Why do you think this two foreigners was arrested during the same night?
Selling and taking drugs in Thailand are the most stupid thing you can do I think if you want to be a criminal. You always have to rely on Thai dealers to supply you with the drug and if they have to snitch on someone it will be you.
A foreign man on the Pattaya News channel makes much better headlines then another Thai man since they are arrested in bundles every day even if they don’t show it on TV.
Even if Thai men can stay on Walking Streets in Pattaya whisper “coke, weed, ganja” in your ear you cannot do that. The reason why they do this is to call the police if you are stupid enough to buy from them.
The under the table money you need to pay to get you out from the particular situation will give them more money than they make selling you one joint.
Taking Thai bar girls back to your room for a drug party is also a bad idea since it is your room the drugs will be yours and not the girls even if they brought them. Some Thai girls also call the police telling them where to come and arrest you. How else do you think they find foreigner in some apartment complex?
If you still want to be a “gangster” please visit one of the many prisons in Thailand or read some prison books about the sunny life inside a Thai prison maybe it will change your mind.
Drugs are a serious crime in Thailand and neither Thai nor foreigners will feel any pity on you for getting caught.

Koh Phangan in Thailand getting harder on drug users
The government in Koh Phangan and local Samui Island are taking harder line against drug users and pushers.
They have set up road blocks and sent in undercover police officers to look out for foreigners taking or selling drugs.
Maybe it has something to do with the Bravo TV series “Big trouble in Thailand” and the face that many people getting caught up in the drugs in the full moon party.
If you are planning on talking drugs during the full moon party you might a longer holiday then you planned from start.

Do we really care to call this news anymore? That another foreigner have taken a stupid pill and smuggled or sold drugs in Thailand.
What makes them hate the life in the western life so much that they have they need more “quick” money?
Some are not even doing it for themselves they are doing it for a few dollar.
Sure you can write a book about it when you come out and speak in public seminars and stuff, but it is really worth it?
Maybe everybody that even have the tiniest idea to smuggle or sell drugs in Thailand should go visit the prison sometime? They can ask questions like
I heard that the food is excellent here, how many rats did you eat today?
I heard that you get your own piece of concrete to sleep on?
Do you think you get out before 2050?
Oh so pee on the contact lenses is the way to clean them in here?
So you have no sexual contact besides with men for 50 years?
How does the rest of your family feel about you now?
I am all for a proper trial and a free lawyer for everyone and no more spiced up police rapports but if you get caught with drugs on your body then you are guilty even in my eyes. You know the punishment you know the law it’s your life and since you ruined your karma as well you second life won’t be better.
The latest moron to get a life sentence is Andrew Hood from Australia.
