He must have been caught before stealing cornflakes.

Why, did she have a full hand?

You are the second poster who has stated the obvious. My point is whether it's her responsibility or not, if she wants this malfunction remedied she should stop moaning and chase PWA to get their finger out - probably at her cost.

According to the OP,  she has stopped moaning. The 'authorities' (we can only guess that's the PWA) appear to have got their finger out already, and put their spectacles on:

Now the local authorities are looking into the matter for her.

Reminds me of a "Yes, Minister" episode - don't form a committee if you don't know what the outcome will be.

I tend to think of a Brian Rix farce for some reason.

what about ... firing & jailing the involved police not knowing what everybody else knows

Or not being able to understand google maps. It was openly listed on there.

It also incorporates Hi Power WiFi to any nearby cell tower, and the individual(s) are identified and classified in under 5 secs.. 

Do you have any more details on this, or a link to what it is?

Thanks for that.

I'm big enough to eat my earlier words. It's (at least today) required by law in five provinces Chanthaburi, Chon Buri, Trat, Rayong and Samut Sakhon.

Coming soon to a location near you ????

 

'I'm big enough to eat my earlier words'    Why, have you been using caps lock again Crossy?
(sorry!)

Gambling really is a disease for Chinese it seems. They just can't get enough of it.

 

I had a hot Chinese girlfriend back in England but if we went into London for a night on the town she just could not pass an amusement arcade and spend 30 - 40 minutes in there on the penny arcade. To drag her away from a pile of pennies perched on the edge was a herculean task. She had pumped so many pennies into it that she seriously thought it owed her.  ' I am just about to win ' was her constant excuse.

My mate had a hot Chinese girlfriend back in England too, but she went off the boil.

There's a very long list of equipment in the cars.

1. Coffee cup holder.

Ha ha! I can't see that in the list. Perhaps that's standard in a BMW, but there is also (in total for 230 cars):

(This is listed as "type 1")

1.1 230 plug-in mixed energy electric cars

1.2 Surveillance camera Installed on the car roof, 230 cameras

1.3 Set of 230 sets of surveillance camera angle positioning

1.4 Mobile computer (Notepad / Notebook) total 230 machines

1.5 Portable passport censors, 230 units

1.6 460 electric guns

1.7 Action Camera, 230 sets

1.8 230 sets of wireless network connection devices

1.9 Mobile computer software for local operations, 230 units

1.10 Software for checking and displaying data of 230 individuals.

1.11 230 VHF / FM car radio transmitters with Code Squelch power of not less than 25 watts.

1.12 amplifier with electronic siren signal. The power is not less than 100 watts with 230 sets of red LED lights for car roof mounting.

I do wonder what point 1.6 is: "460 electric guns"!

There is also an additional 30 cars with a higher spec. Listed as "type 2"

It came in the form of the Immigration Bureau's famous BMW smart cars that after a considerable hiatus are back in business!

It would be interesting to know what the Bureau's famous BMW smart cars were used for during the considerable hiatus???

I can't remember reading what the 'considerable hiatus' was?

However, from the link provided by Natai Beach in an earlier post in this topic, it appears there are 230 smart cars across the country. The price  per vehicle is 3,445,039 Baht (total 792,358,970 Baht)

And yes, they do have a lot more than a laptop with 4G and a mobile phone as I originally wrote.

There's a very long list of equipment in the cars.

You would want to say เขา/เธอ เป็นคนที่บ้าอำนาจ or เขา/เธอชอบใช้อำนาจ 

ควบคุม is more like controlling something....like ควบคุม  traffic or a machine....ควบคุมการทำงาน...ควบคุมการจราจร... blah, blah, blah.

Ah, right. Thanks.

I recognise อำนาจ from มอบอำนาจ/ใบมอบอำนาจ for power of attorney.

It did occur to me I might have the wrong use of the word when I was trying to find it.

You have guessed wrong.
 

These beemers are the ducks guts. 

Made in Rayong at the BMW factory.

They are kitted out with a stack of features, the most impressive is the facial recognition system (they have your photos when you arrive at the immigration at the airport and look into that camera). 
 

It sits on top of the roof on a swivel and can pick you from 100 meters away.  Photo below circled in blue. 
 

Every province has two of them. They are plug in electric.

 

i am not sure about the headline, they haven’t been anywhere. 
 

Are you saying it doesn't have a laptop with 4G, and a mobile phone?
 

What other features does it have, as well as the camera? I wonder if it needs to be stationary, or can it recognise faces as it drives by?

Do you have a link to an article which lists other features?

What's the word to describe someone who has a very controlling personality?

Is the word  การควบคุม ?

If so, would it be something like เขาเป็นควบคุมมาก for example?
