The seizure of 2.4-billion-baht worth of methamphetamine in shipments from Thailand to Australia has been linked to Chinese-Australian "drug kingpin" Lee Chung Chak, the Narcotics Suppression Bureau (NSB) revealed, while a joint investigation between Thai and Australian police continues.
NSB chief Montri Yimyaem said national police chief Pol Gen Suwat Jangyodsuk ordered an urgent investigation into the case which is believed to involve the alleged international narcotics trafficking network of Mr Lee, from Hong Kong.
On May 4, Australian police found 316 kilogrammes of methamphetamine hidden inside barbecue grills and water heaters from Thailand.

Australia needs a Magnitsky Act | The Strategist

Australia’s war against organised crime has hotted up. The arrest of accused drug lord Tse Chi Lop and allegations of large-scale money laundering in Australian casinos have exposed to the public the deep economic connections transnational and organised crime syndicates have established here, and the scale of the threat we face.
The extent of these connections adds urgency to the recent call by the human rights subcommittee of the parliament’s Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade for Australia to adopt Magnitsky-style legislation.
The US Magnitsky Act began as an effort to hold officials of foreign countries accountable for human rights abuses. The legislation, which applies globally, gives the US government the legal means to the freeze assets of and ban US entry to those it lists for involvement in human rights abuses. Canada and the UK have introduced similar legislation.

Second alleged drug kingpin arrested in Thailand tightening dragnet on transnational syndicate

A second alleged senior leader of a vast drug syndicate has been arrested, a Thai narcotics official said, as a transnational dragnet tightens on the Sam Gor group, which police say dominates the $91 billion annual Asia Pacific drug trade.
The October arrest of Hong Kong citizen Lee Chung Chak in Bangkok preceded last month's high-profile arrest in the Netherlands of Tse Chi Lop, a China-born Canadian national who police suspect is the top leader of the syndicate, also called "The Company".
Mr Lee, 65, is a former prison mate of Mr Tse's, suspected of being involved in drug trafficking for four decades.
