Smuggling drugs across the Thai border is easy, says ex-trafficker.

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Smuggling drugs across the Thai border is easy, says ex-trafficker.

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Abdullah, who was released from prison in 2014 and is now 47, said: “One time I had among the vegetables and fruits I was bringing from Thailand a durian containing about one kilogramme of heroin.

“It had a street value of nearly one million ringgit.”

Abdullah, like many other smugglers, hid drugs in vegetables like bitter gourd and pumpkin and fruits such as durian, pineapple and coconut.

These were finely cut open and the contents taken out and replaced with drugs and other forbidden items like components of guns, he said. They were then carefully glued together again.

[He was finally caught, but not at the border. He was given up by one of his customers who was arrested for possession of drugs.]

A few kilos of lollies would go down well with the girls but I'd stop at that, how would you cost the risk of spending your years in a SE Asian prison? Unless really really desperate I don't understand how people take the risk.

buying drugs is easy
smuggling drugs is easy
selling drugs in large amounts ( knowing who to sell to without getting ripped off or busted) thats the hard part
