  1. Dereliction of Duty was how the BP phrased it.
  2. Sounds like a refreshing change from the new PM; denying junket membership to the many. Now if he can just persuade them to work instead of enjoying the hospitality of others, he'll get my vote ...oh!
  3. Merit in the RTP is gained by bribes; either for a higher position or to keep sweet those higher up. The questionable tactics are practised on the public and honed to perfection within the station. My S-i-L was demoted from using a police car back to a motorbike for not contributing enough upwards.
  4. Is there another election due next year?
  5. That's more than Thaksin! I wonder how many days inside they'll both do.
  6. I didn't phrase it well enough; every one knows that the RTP is riddled with crooks. My point is that only rarely have these crooks been identified until just recently. Of course identifying them and punishing them are two different things.
  7. Is it me or are there more police arrests of police lately?
  8. The work is expected to start just before High Season next year.
  9. All this fuss over forgetting to forward one brown envelope!
  10. Besides brake pads, brake lights on cars and motor bikes and all auto lights must be the most expensive in the World. Ordinary folk don't seem able to afford them.
  11. SERVE AND PROTECT I expect every single member of Pattaya's invisible police force to walk the length of 3rd Road touching lampposts. It will six months for them both to make this journey.
  12. Or the one based in Pattaya, 'No More Cops'.
  13. I love the catchy titles they dream up for projects whose only use is to garner commissions. Here's some others: Second Road, Major Cock-Up. Beach Road Ditto. Spot the Working Cop.
  14. Now a couple of days pause in the story to allow Plod to check who the driver's father is.
  15. It suggests our ever-vigilant BIB tracked the dozy thief to his address probably by CCTV? I've maintained for years that no-one looks at these screens; how else is speeding & red-light running allowed to flourish with such deadly consequences?
  16. Never thought I'd see this opinion about Pattaya police. 'The arrest operation was a collaborative effort between Thai police and Interpol in South Korea.' It's more likely that someone managed to fill in an Interpol request & Korean cops did the rest. The Red Bull brat's Interpol form has been delayed so many times, it's almost like some one in RTP is deliberately messing up the process.
  17. Didn't Elon have to cough up in a Thai libel case during the cave rescue of the footballers?
  18. 'The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart' stars Sigourney Weaver; 7 episodes; excellent writing.
  19. Do you know who my father is and what his surgery was?
