China targets one of Asia's biggest meth cartel: deputy drug tsar
[AFP News] AFP News  15 November 2019

Chinese drug police are working with Mekong countries to strike at the heart of a mega-rich meth syndicate, a senior Beijing drugs tsar said, as the region targets top-level drug traffickers instead of street dealers.

The porous lawless border areas of Myanmar, Thailand and Laos have for decades been a hub for heroin production, but the so-called "Golden Triangle" drug trade is now pumping unprecedented quantities of synthetic drugs into the global markets -- fuelling a $61 billion drug trade

In large part responsible for the dramatic shift to synthetic drugs is a mega-cartel known as "Sam Gor", which UN's Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) believes is Asia's biggest crime syndicate led by a Chinese-born Canadian citizen named Tse Chi Lop.

"Golden Triangle", I know in the past 3 months or so, I posted an article on an Asian drug kingpin as well, "Asia's Chapo" if anyone is interested in, I believe the article was called (in search of..)

China’s El Chapo is ‘flooding the world with crystal meth via Asian cartel which makes $17billion a year’

Myanmar is a "Mekong country"? More importantly, two countries in the area were not on the list of those cooperating, Vietnam and Cambodia. Without their cooperation I'm not sure how successful this effort will be. Given that China and Vietnam fought a war in the late 70s or early 80s, IIRC, I'm not sure how likely such cooperation would be.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

No mention of Fentanyl, which Chania has promised to help reduce, exports to the US, if you believe a word of that.
