bump, what if you have a letter from your doctor saying you need valium and xanax? Can you then get it from any chemist or get prescribed it from a doctor over there?
If you have a legitimate condition, in-which you really need the Valium or Xanax, and see a doctor over there, I'm sure they'd give you a prescription over there. Maybe a letter would help (so long as it looks authentic and has proof of it's authenticity ie: stamped), but from what I've read so far in this thread, you shouldn't really need one anyways.

I know this is dragging off-topic, but please, please, please be careful with any kind of drugs in any SEA country. OTC/prescription stuff should be fine, but black-market stuff like Ecstasy, meth/shabu, or Heroin is a big no-no over there. It may be cheap, of good quality and tempting, but officials are on the look out and cracking down on illicit drug use. Especially after the last few years. Personal amounts, you may only get locked up for a couple of months (but,
really ... do you want to spend a couple of months in a foreign prison cell anyways?). Anything that will make you look like you are trafficking, will likely get you a long, long time or executed.
There is one place that is apparantly pretty lax on drugs, and that is Cambodia. Best bet is a very isolated town/village in a "guest-house" and you will actually get confronted by dealers trying to sell you "ganja" or Heroin. Very little police activity around these areas and alot of the drugs are very cheap, of high quality (especially Heroin) and readily available. Just be sure not to get in debt with the local "friend" or drug dealer... not a great way to spend your holiday, and it can be easily done if using a drug like Heroin. Use your common-sense though and you can make your money go a long, long way.
