The cops said that the ice was trafficked from Laos through Stung Treng province and that they were investigation the foreigners' connections.

There is a drug problem in Cambodia. Is there the same problem in Laos?

The most simple answer is Yes allover SEAsia, the border crossing looks easily, nothing seems what what it's like, 30kg off the KH streets, can only reduce the machete killings , perhaps like bringing water to the sea, anyway, the good news s that it is confiscated!
I actually don't give a flying fuck, furthermore nice to meet you all here! :thumb:

If I was in his shoes I'd do a Tony Montana and slamdunk my face in that pile and do a methed-up rage on the cops to make them shoot me dead, has to be better then rotting away in a jail cell(assuming he can't pay his way out in a couple years) :suicide:
