United States Thursday warned Thailand of the increasing of production and export of illicit drug from neighboring Burma after the success of narcotic control and combating in Afghanistan.
"Burma is likely to be a greater producer and a greater exporter of illicit drug in years ahead because of the success of the international community in controlling and reducing the flow of illicit drug in Afghanistan," said William Brownfield US Assistant Secretary for Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs.
Brownfield was in Thailand Thursday for a visit which brought him to meet with many narcotic concern officials including the foreign minister, police chief, supreme judges and attorney general to discuss cooperation on narcotic suppression.
