Border bully’s eyes are too big for his stomach

A LOCAL border jockey’s greed proved to be his downfall in Banteay Meanchey province on Monday night. The man, who makes his living charging a fee to speed up travellers’ border crossings from Thailand to Cambodia, tried to double his fee upon arrival. While he threatened to take his customers’ luggage – and their lives – bystanders immediately called the police, who hauled the mercenary menace down to the station.
