Tilo, Probably what you/ashok said could be true. Again that timid look on that guys face doesn’t show him as a smuggy. The way he took the kid to his hands, that showed that he is going to be away from the kid for a long time.

Capriciously Me, Got it. Agree that a lot of stuff happens in Mid east.

Lazy you are quite naive . I tend to agree with ashok.

I went to s’pore recently – clearly there was a gumbal at the airport which seemed quite unemployable and was definitely not there to sightsee either.

so, therefore…….

I was surprised myself because after Manmohan Singh’s term as FM – I thought this “smuggling” of Yardley powder, Camay soap etc., Levis Jeans had come to an end and there was no need to sponsor such “parties”.

And the really serious stuff – the S’pore/M’asia cops will give them the death sentence so yes what are these people upto?

maybe they supply chewing gum to S’pore!

Anand, exactly what I was shouting…

Ashok, What you said could happen, agree. But going by my mediocre judgemental skills, I feel it was a true case of flying for employment. The ignorance in the guy’s face, showed his curiosity and equally his timid atittude.

BTW, I again hopeit wasn’t what you said.

Lazygeek, as others have said, this post was very revealing. I couldn’t help smiling.
BTW what you saw is supposed to happen routinely on the Madras-Singapore/Malaya routes. Dude must have been smuggling something in his insides. Unlikely it was for employment.

Sankalp, You got that right man. That was for that.

Thanks for that good guess. Someone finally got that out. I didn’t mention it because it might sound too personal on the blog.
