The drugs originated in Cambodia and traveled through Thailand, intended for sale in more luxurious markets in neighboring areas such as Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia.
Thailand authorities made a startling discovery when they busted open lifesize Transformer robot statues and retrieved over 700 pounds of ketamine. 'Currently, we are facing a drug trafficking problem with transnational crime networks hidden in all regions, using Thailand as a base to smuggle drugs to third countries continuously through international shipments via air or sea,' Police Lt. Gen. Phanurat Lhakbun told reporters of the bust, which happened on April 25.

Authorities said she had received instructions from another unidentified woman in Laos who would receive the drugs. The narcotics board claimed that the drugs originated in Cambodia, and they have agents working to track down any accomplices in Taiwan.
