Mekong Tragedy

Shipping on the Mekong River, known in China as the Lancang River, has been suspended after two cargo ships were attacked on October 5 in the "Golden Triangle," where the borders of Myanmar, Thailand and Laos meet, the maritime affairs department of southwest China's Yunnan Province said on October 10.

Thai authorities have confirmed that all 13 Chinese crewmen on the two hijacked ships were killed and identified the killers as a drug trafficking ring operating on the Mekong River.

According to the Yunnan Provincial Government, 116 of the 130 ships engaged in international shipping on the Mekong River are operated by Chinese companies.

原标题：中国抓捕糯康曾欲派无人机斩首 北斗功不可没

如何行动？通向糯康藏匿山顶的唯一小路坑洼不平，摩托车开到一半，须再步行2公里。每到夜间，糯康团伙在地下布雷、树上挂雷，四周布满了明哨、暗哨。

专案组有人曾设想，用无人机运载20公斤TNT炸药，一下子轰下去，"方案报上去后被否了，要抓活的"ã€‚这次是缅甸少数民族地方武装打头阵，缅甸政府军殿后，急行军在蚂蟥叮咬、猛兽栖息的深山老林走到第5天5夜，帐篷已在几百米外。这是离铲除糯康集团最近的一次！

突然，一名队员碰到糯康的暗哨，开枪，但行动组的包围圈尚未合拢，糯康等人闻声四散逃脱。

the news suggests that Beidou system now can help drones to carry out "targeted killing" mission at least in Asia-Pacific areas.
