Thank you for this extraordinary story. I have been a foreign correspondent in Thailand covering news for Danish media since 1988 and must admit to being guilty of buying many of the lies and hearsays that you expose. I am critical of some of your work but this story is really educating me. Well done!
The true curse of the blue diamond
