CNN reports Thailand source of imported "filthy" medical gloves to USA

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.

Not really. We don't even make our meth anymore.

Why are meth hand opioids such a huge problem in the USA?
Long story behind opioids. One very rich and well connected family began selling lots of it years ago.

Opioid deaths reached a new high (ahem) last year.

Blame it on the Sackler family for producing Oxycontin in the ealry 90's and pushing Drs to prescribe it as the miracle drug

Quote “ Thailand's Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) told CNN Tuesday that Kampee Kampeerayannon, CEO of a company called SkyMed and a former senior Thai air force officer, had been detained after a judge issued a warrant.”

Enough said, Royal Thai Crooks.
