Active ingredient in ECSTASY, or something like that.

Oh yes. They sell MDMA for 20 - 25 a pill here. It's about 3 in the UK.

The sharp edges of the tape shredded the envelope apart, but Australia Post thoughtfully put some rubber bands around it to ensure the item arrived intact.
I have a lot of items sent to Cambodia, usually numerous packages in one big box, and each and every package invariably has been opened and resealed.
Registered post items above a certain weight has the customs guys poking around in them. But I receive loads of smaller packages - maybe up to 2kg which are very, very rarely opened.
They X-ray them. I had a load of seeds sent to me in an envelope, still in their proper packets. None of them grew, they'd irradiated them with something.

You and me both. If I'm reading his blurry passport correctly this kid was born 1992.
Funny I get the exact same feeling about people who use heavy drugs.

They're having great results with it for treating Vets and others with severe PTSD in clinical studies. The FDA is on board now and it's looking like it will be legalized within the next 5 years or so.

The package of drugs was addressed to the Frenchman's real name at his home address in Phnom Penh.

Frenchman charged over post office drug bust
5 April 2018
Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday charged a French national over the trafficking of nearly half of a kilogram of ecstasy tablets through the post office.

Major Sok Setha, a police officer with the Interior Ministry’s Internal Security Police Department, said Maxime Colas, 26, was charged by the court yesterday after authorities seized a package of the drugs weighing 357.59 grams.

Maj Setha said Daun Penh district post office officials discovered the package that was sent from Belgium and was addressed to the accused at his home address in Phnom Penh.

Maj Setha said the post office workers who made the discovery on Monday contacted officers from the Internal Security Police Department, who set up a sting operation that same day.
Police officers, in tandem with a municipal court prosecutor and the post office workers, prepared a plan to bait the suspect to the post office to pick up the drugs, said Maj Setha.

Officers then arrested Mr Maxime on Monday morning at about 11am after he arrived at the Daun Penh district post office.
“He was arrested with concrete evidence after he came to retrieve the package from police officers at the post office,” said Maj Setha.

He should’ve tried this from KH to Thailand instead, less profit but still, but way less risky!
