i was in the infamous bangkok hilton prison back in 2004.
you could go and visit someone for your country if you wish bring em cigs or food..
spoke to a dude from cork who got caught carrying drugs internally..
he was malnourished and totally dispondant...
would not go back.
i visit thailand every year on my travels and most of the police turn a blind eye if the price is right...and thats late night drinking( is against the law)drugs and prostitution...
its better to burn out than to fade away
