During the floods there has been the continual worry about criminals/burglars etc... a recent case has caught the headlines here in Thailand.
Fair play the police actually caught the thieves who had burgled the house of a permanent secretary of transport, he was caught with 2m baht on him.
The thing is... the burglar confessed to actually making off with about 200mm baht (GBP5mm USD7mm) call me overly suspicious i f you want but...
1. Who keeps that amount of money at home in cash?
2. How many civil servants in the UK or US even have that much money saved away from their earnings, let alone a Thai civil servant who should be on about GBP1-2k a month.
As an aside how did the burglar get caught?
If I stole that much cash, all you'd see is my backside disappearing over the horizon never to be seen again.
