ONCB meets in Pattaya
on border drug smuggling
Sunturak Sangdokmai
The Office of the Narcotics Control Board is planning
new regulations to tackle drug-smuggling at the Thai-Cambodian border.
ONCB Deputy Secretary Sukhum Opasniputh led the
meeting.
ONCB Deputy Secretary Sukhum Opasniputh led the Aug.
23 meeting at the A-One Royal Cruise Hotel with agencies from both
countries to discuss trafficking in eight border provinces, including
Chantaburi, Trat and Srakaew.
The region is served by four permanent routes and
eight temporary routes. That has boosted tourism, officials said, but
also aided drug smugglers. Eradicating the problem requires cooperation
from both sides and the Border Liaison Office, they said.
The meeting was aimed at developing collaboration
from agencies working in Thai-Cambodian border regions to prevent
transport of drugs across borders and a meeting to exchange news, review
operations to increase quality of operations.
