The bibs usually don't go for the fish fight or cock fight gamblers, it is more about the gathering of people in covid times.

Kratom has been taken off the list of narcotics since may, so how can get arrested for that.

That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Another massive criminal gang smashed.

There's no stopping the BiB.

The government of Thailand announced May 26th in the Thai Royal Government Gazette that kratom will be taken off the list of banned narcotics. This is expected to go in effect on August 24th.
