Don't do drugs and you should survive.....
WHAT do you mean by that? that if i will not do drugs than no police will
torture me?
that is a common misperception.
dirty police force can get anyone anywhtime. as one politician, chuvit, explained, dirty
policeman do not get these times their prostitution and gambling tee monies, do
they move to extortion.
and one easy target might be the unsuspecting farang.
of course, if you are here on retirement visa with only 1 million in the bank, they
will not budder. but once you start doing legal business, and more legal assets, you
might become a victim too. drugs has nothing to do with it.

I see them regularly. No police work appears necessary and any misdemeanors by the passing public is totally ignored. That is not their job.
Protect and serve their own interests, is.
so you reccon that in those red boxes there are 1000 baht waiting for them?
i acctually did see it once. the box / container are for forms they have to fill.

i am surprised to discover that thai system allows ,legally, law enforcers to keep 25% of ill gotten assets they manage to confiscate. seems like that is the root of the problem.
it is like legalising corruption and encouraging police brutality.
30% of the proceeds are allocated to people who provide clues to the authorities while 25% goes to arresting officers, including police and customs agents.
very very dangerous country.
i am not a criminal but feel more and more uncomfortable in this country.
more dangerous and curropt than africa and south america .

TIT. Anyone who comes here expecting less than a systemic and cultural norm of day to day corruption will have a hard time. It's not a case of if you will come across it in your daily life in Thailand, but when.
well corruption is one thing, and torturing people to death - on a regular basis by ferrari and lamburgini cops - is a whole different thing.

Excellent editorial.
Well-written, pointed, enlightening, and courageous.
BUT who will read it besides few expats?

not the killing of "people in custody" is a no no, but the
TORTURING of suspects is the big NO NO.
NO NO NO it is not ok to torture people in custody, even if only because it eliminate
the whole JUSTICE from the justice system.
the defence line of the JOE FERRARI torturing policeman is that he did not mean to kill
him nor to extort him, but just to extort information from him.
"i was just doing myjob", said the joe ferrari.
you see, he is so used to torture, and the police is so accepting of torturing, and
the thai public is so accepting this horror police policy, that you really
need to start by eplaining that NO NO NO YOU DO NOT TORTURE SUSPECTS !!

Truth is that this is a very hard and scary case, harder than the story of the kidnapping and torture of the taiwanesse businessman by a group of corrupted policeman.
this case is worse becuase we can see how a whole police station is dirty to the core, how they
are experienced in covering such cases and how even the health system is collaborating.
those cases should use as warning lights to all expats.
makes me think about leaving this country for good while i am still alive.

Normal procedure is you would need to inform your employer you are resigning from from job with a effective date on it (30 days in before in most cases). Then would do a termination letter with you last day of work.
You could then go to the immigration office that issued your extension of stay to have it canceled. If you go before your termination date they will post date the cancelation to that day.
You or your employer will have to cancel you work permit.
You new employer will have to apply for a new work permit to get a application approval letter that will be needed to apply for a new extension prior to the cancelation date on your existing one.
is it so complicated to change jobs for a foreigner in thailand?
can't the same WP be used for many kinds of jobs?
i thought the law was changed and no need to report about a change in job, as
long as it is not a job that is reserved for thai only.
and how about SPONSORED WORK PERMIT? is it legal than? some digital nomads
are using this solution.

As Rutnin is not near Silom I think you may have the hospital name wrong?
NEAR SUKHUMVIT
-
yes, i did it in a famous rutnin eye hospital near silom road, and i do not reccomand it .
if i would do it now, i would go to Samitivej Thonburi Hospital.
price is same but Samitivej is much less busy and has way better facilities.
the reason i did not do it there is that they had a gay doctor at that time and i'd rather lose
my eye than let a gay man thouch it.
but the doctors there change all the time and when i came there again it was a nice young lady,
which did look like a real woman.

so it was only COVID-19 that caused the delay, and now at last the reform will start.
i am sure that within few weeks Thailand will have afresh reformed police force.

well, mate, you leave in a country where most of the population are making 300-400 USD a month,
if they are lucky to get a job.
try to leave on this amount for few months and you will see how your mind starts drifting to
dark places.

IF you were so certain about bitcoin you would not budder to reply to me.

Thai law allow the policeman / officer who confiscated ill gotten assets to obtain 25% of the

this should beremembered as a warning by all expats who move money to thailand.
