Funny old world isn't it.

If the current minister in the Thai government had been nabbed on the way out of Thailand, instead of doing about 4 years in an Oz jail for smuggling heroin, he may still be banged up in the Bangkok Hilton.

Also a typical 60 Minutes beat-up with the emphasis on capital punishment for drug smugglers. In fact, according to Wiki, there have been only 3 executions since 2004 (including 2020).
