Sorry, but that quantity of drugs simply says "Fuck your government and your rules. I'll do what I want."

I hope the Khmer powers that be cancel the court hearing and tell a few of the HIV-infected lads in an overcrowded Prey Sar cell to slide over. Company's coming!

Well that's a serious haul then. The scale of the photos make the pills look huge, I thought it was maybe a precursor for production, not the finished article.

That's gonna be a life sentence.
