I thought there was a committee formed yesterday to 'solve' this problem? A police force could cut 50% of the emissions by spotting plumes of smoke from their A/C offices & toddling over to the arsonist's fire. (There's one on my estate who burns his rubbish at least weekly with no police visit responding to his being twice reported.) They could then take off the road all un-serviced (diesel cars/pickups) easily spotted by their black smoke trail if the police ever dared to take to the roads. All slow-touring speaker vans (especially during what passes for elections in Thailand) are a fatuous waste of fuel inflicted on the rest of the public; it is an offence to hold-up traffic in countries with a proper police force.

The only cattle I see hereabouts are gaunt sad-looking specimens with ribs showing through under-nourishment.

What planet do you live on? The ONLY time Pattaya police become visible is when there is media attention (or the scent of baht). They are not called Photocops for nothing. They're busy doing nothing! Check out the figures for daily road deaths which could be slashed if there was a police force.

How does one net a ghost? 'The teams meticulously cut the net into smaller pieces before carefully lifting it to the surface' - where each piece was carefully weighed to reach the 338kg weight above.

'The names, ages, and nationalities of the men arrested were not released by relevant police.' There are no relevant police in Pattaya.

You can count on the thumbs of one hand all the beneficial changes made here in the last TEN years. Surprised no one has mentioned the FIFTY year jail sentence for Lese-majeste handed out to an activist yesterday.

Going to take a complete guess here; full steam ahead mining baht and to hell with the environment.

Thank you.

Check out HotChili's post above.

Watched the final episode of Fargo last night. What a pretentious let-down! A 20 minute Woke conversation tacked on as if the writers didn't know how to finish. In other news I eagerly watched the 1st episode of True Detective. What a crashing disappointment! It's set 3 days into the Arctic Winter so no sunlight. The writers must have decided to do the woke thing; (we've done black Americans, Red-skinned Americans, so what's left?) Innuits! Unbelievably confusing as a plethora of new characters are scatter gunned into the plot; incoherent dialogue requiring subtitles. I gave it 30 head-aching minutes before I moved on; To 'Monsieur Spade'. Much brighter as it's set in France. As a professional novelist & would-be TV/Movie writer I am intrigued that it is possible to take a fully formed/created character (from The Maltese Falcon et al), substitute Clive Owen for Humphrey Bogart, and write a TV series about him. Another + for the hard of hearing Owen gets to speak schoolboy French with an execrable accent but with sub-titles.

'blood scattered across the floor.' Suggests violence?

Another mummy's boy. Totally agree with Peter above; most Thai males grow up arrogant, self-important, devoid of finer feelings and responsibility. They are permitted/even encouraged to bully their sisters which colours their attitude towards women for the rest of their lives. See how many walk away from their babies without a qualm or maintenance payment.

The place has even fewer officers than Pattaya. Totally lawless.

Col. Col. Chatri noted that there were no illegal findings during the operation and did not specifically name the venues visited. So all in vain! Forewarned is fore-armed. An exercise like this is designed: to show Pattaya has a police force despite evidence to the contrary; to allay boredom amongst these invisible officers; to deliver some overtime payments; to encourage prompt delivery of protection money.

Surprised this story has slipped under the radar!

I'm just staggered the law was upheld against this Hi-So. No mention of any punishment which would deter the other 98% of the Government crooks.

Thank you; reading the article I was puzzled as I can't remember one flight where I boarded without having to show my passport.

Precisely the reason I chose it.

The girlfriend was a minor? The mother was the mastermind. The son a killer. Thai family values.

Laughable - no wonder he's taken to mass media! It seems Korean gold is more valuable than Indian stuff.

They've got nothing else to do, so they went and ogled a couple of girls. I bet they've got the photos on their phone and they're being shared as I write.

The 1st word is unnecessary.

Setting a good example to the rest of the population.
