Well, someone should teach the Balinese about making good cuts.
Let this be a lesson for all of us ;)

I think it may have something to do with this -

Interesting that further down the page it explains that the antidote to methanol poisoning is ethanol.

Cheers, Heffers

faark, that's just shithouse.

A few got killed the same way in Turkey a few weeks back.

http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,4158526,00.html

The two suspects work as purchasing officers at the hotel the students were staying at when they consumed the contaminated alcohol.

Three other service staff members from the bar and restaurant were taken in for questioning, but were later released.

Turkish media report that the hotel bought its spirits from a local company named Germiyan Pazarlama.

Investigators took 37 samples from products sold by the firm and found several contained high levels of methanol.

Detectives have so far been unable to find the firm's owner and fear he has fled.

This is very interesting because that woman from Aus apparently had the same drink as her mum at the bar and they claimed that they daughter had the "top" of the bottle therefore more methanol...but as distillers we would assume that the methanol would have mixed with the rest of the alcohols in the bottle?

This leaves me to believe the these dogdy fuckers are probably spiking drinks with a dangerous cocktail.......

Beware when OS, and Arak just means distilled spirit in most of those South Asia countries so it could be fucking anything.

Who do you blame have a look at http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/-/ne ... port-scam/ anything you buy may be a fake easy to substitute during distribution and the innocent seller of the fake gets it from genuine source as genuine product .Recycle your bottles and they can be sent to china for a refill.

wynum, thats very interesting. Another similar thing I heard in Malaysia recently that you can buy real Tiger beer for around 90 ringit (malaysia dollars, about $30 AUS) and you can also buy knock off beer that is brewed somewhere else in Asia for 40 ringit. Apparently the knock off beer is worse that the real stuff but Tiger beer is shit to start with so I assume it's not much good
