Would it be too embarrassing to name the job description of the guy or do we now use " drug addict " as a job description.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I have a copy of this book, published in 2013.

https://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Traffickin ... 848858159

According to the studies, the guns are coming from basically everywhere. India, Sri Lanka, North Korea, Burma, and even HK and Japan. The two main sources are thought to be Burma and China, where there are the most production facilities, and in the case of Burma a strong import connection to NK. A 2006 study below showed that there were still up to as many as 85,000 small arms leftovers in illegal circulation within Cambodia, as well.

Oh, and well done on getting that empty Mevius packet too. I had no idea they were illegal here.
