Budsada Kongchan, 29, was arrested on a Nong Khai-Udon Thani van at about 7am. 
Police at the Nong Song Hong checkpoint on Nong Khai-Udon Thani Road, in Nong Khai&rsquo;s Mueng district, noticed that the Laotian appeared nervous so they asked to search him and found the drugs in his trouser pockets. 
He admitted that he bought the drugs from another Laotian man in Laos and planned to sell them to his Thai friend in Udon Thani.
