Party Vibe

I remember reading about this – the rangers were about 50 very angry looking dudes who are about 5 foot 5 each (mind you so is nearly everyone in the hot countries of SE Asia) but the sort of dudes you do not want to fuck with – and they have AK-47s!)

I think the Chinese can now make the chemical from other stuff and without harvesting the trees but its way more expensive as there’s less yield from other sources..

My ancestors came from those jungles raaa

I didn’t know the trees grew in Malaysia but they are probably confined to national parks as Malaysia rinsed most of its wilderness to become industrialised 😥

the production of mephedrone and amfetamine has less eco-impact but they aren’t as “fun” drugs..

It’s certainly a shame what’s happened to Malaysia – still has some beautiful areas, but I can only imagine what it must’ve been like prior to industrialisation (and tourism).

unfortunately it might have looked “pretty” but also a very backward country and British colonial policies didn’t help matters either.

Singapore was even worse, the place was a a complete shithole. Worse than Yarmouth and even until the 1970s conditions were medieval. Thats why they are so obsessed about neatness and cleanliness today…

if MDMA production and use was tolerated they could use other methods which were less environmentally damaging, but at present a majority consensus across the world agrees rightly or wrongly that drug use is more damaging to a wider community.

Ironically the one country which could swing the pendulum by decriminalising / legalising would be China and in reality drug use is accepted more in some parts of South China than it is in Europe, provided the people turn up for work/college on Monday and behave decently otherwise! However I reckon it would result in political, economic and even military action against this nation despite its strength…

TBH I think the bulk of the MDMA produced by these means ends up being consumed in SE and Eastern Asia anyway. Because some nations in these areas up the stakes by enforcing the death penalty for dealing and production, this means that producers become even more ruthless (and also mean they would be better off selling the stuff in their own countries than smuggling across loads of borders and risking being busted)

Unfortunately I don’t understand much Chinese or other East Asian languages (they are difficult) so can’t go read whatever the Chinese equivalent of Partyvibe is (I bet there is one somewhere!) but there is a big scene in some areas. I even found some Chinese happy hardcore tracks on youtube :laugh_at:
