Summary
Holly Bowles, a 19-year-old Australian, has become the sixth foreign tourist to die from suspected methanol poisoning in Laos.
She and her friend Bianca Jones fell ill in Vang Vieng, a popular backpacking town, after reportedly consuming tainted alcohol, which can be lethal even in small amounts.
Other victims include a British lawyer, an American man, and two Danish women. Methanol, often found in bootleg or home-distilled alcohol, is believed to be the cause.
Authorities are investigating, with the manager of the hostel where free shots were served detained for questioning.
Pretty white spoiled girls “yay let’s go to a third world country where 13 people live for a week on the cost of my hair dye!”
Like I’m sorry but maybe give your head a shake you idiots. You look like a tv star and these people live on pennies. How far up you ass is your own head? How stupid and naive can you possibly be? Of course they are going to take what you have and/or kill you.
Third world gonna third world.

Tourist money is a good thing for poor countries you delusional fuckwit.
Methanol poisoning is a very bad way to kill someone for their belongings
