152 cases were about items missing in the airport, 152 about items missing while on board, and 101 about items missing outside the airport's compound.

Um, in other words...152 cases of items actually lost IN the airport over a five-month period. Slow news day, maybe?

101 about items missing outside the airport's compound.

So 101 items were reported as being stolen somewhere in Thailand.

Hardly a problem for the airport!
