My heart wasn't into taking down Abdul.

I knew he was down here for a visa.

If I took him down,  he'd only be replaced by another asswipe.

I had a better idea.

I'd follow him into Southern Thailand and catch him out.

If the Thai military knew what he was up to, I really wouldn't want to be around to find out what they'd do to him.

I suppose he could say he was only making an insurance claim.

'We bombed the 7-11 so that the owner could get a payout and a new shop.'

I had heard of stuff being taken out of premises before they were bombed.

And I had seen new hotels being built after being bombed.

It was a way to upgrade and blame it on the Muslims.

'We'll never know what is going on down there,' said Caramel.

I think the bar girls know what's going on, I said.

'They always know what's going on,'said Max who was driving to Geylang, Singapore's red light district.

I was tempted to tell him to continue until we reached Johor Baru.

I thought you'd say that, said Max.

Johor Baru, it was one of my favorite Malaysian cities.
