...himself, then surely he could generate a few thousand baht for the bar girls, farmers and noodle sellers. During his campaign, almost every neighborhood seemed festooned with his Thai Rak Thai (Thai Love Thai) party's red, blue and white logo, and the Bangkok taxi drivers and Chiang Mai tuk tuk operators would flash you a grin and a thumbs-up when you mentioned his name. "Thaksin make money," they would say, "Thaksin make money for Thai people...
...pointing at the black goop wrapped in wax paper. "I don't want No. 2. That makes me headachy." She came here after a few months in Thailand where she did the usual: raving at full-moon parties down in Ko Pha-Ngan, trekking in the hills around Chiang Mai. Along with three other travelers, she crossed from Thailand into Laos at Chiang Khong and then caught a boat down the Mekong. She had never tried opium before coming to Laos, and she had told herself back in Epsom, England, she would never, ever, try heroin. But she viewed opium...

But five policemen on mountain bikes, plus three on video surveillance, are able to handle the job of patrolling 4 km of a wire barrier they concede can be scaled...
...will see the world's biggest water fight as Southeast Asians from Phnom Penh to Phuket soak each other in three days of liquid lunacy, accompanied by dancing, feasting and singing. In Rangoon, stages erected along the streets are used to spray passersby. In Thailand, residents of Chiang Mai in the north are known as particularly enthusiastic celebrants, while Khon Kean in the northeast parades flower-bedecked floats through town to the beat of indigenous Isaan music. An official ban on throwing water in Cambodia has failed to dampen festivities; traditional games are even played in the grounds...
