NoshowJones Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 11 hours ago, Get Real said: Seems like they really got a hold of the problem. Cut the hair and put the sunglasses in the pocket until sunday dinner, and everything is hunky dory. Beware about shops selling sunglasses. They lead to severe urge to corrupt yourself. Also be very careful not to let your hair grow out more then 1-2 cm. That can lead to aqn irresitable way to look trough the fingers in cetain situations. What has the length of the police's hair got to do with their ability to do their job? Oh! wait, are most of them not in inactive posts anyway? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grusa Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Sunglasses? Ok if it's sunny, but after 5:00pm? Face masks? Ok if there is smog, but on a rainy day? Police car/truck with illegally dark tinted windscreen? On the road after 5:00 pm. No legible officer ID badge? At any time? Given the Thai love of ecology and environmental sustainability, every officer should be required by law to provide to every member of the public with whom he interacts, a business card with his name in Thai and English, a photo, his service number and rank, his station contact telephone number and location details (gps coordinates). It wouldn't even cost very much to set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookieqw Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 9 hours ago, Happy enough said: you see i don't think that looks menacing. to me that looks like some thai copper who doesn't want to have dark skin. happy for him to wave me past. but if he pulls me over and wants to talk to me then he should remove the face covering and sunglasses before speaking to me. i would be fine with that. don't want to get a ticket from a stormtrooper or breathe the fumes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phuket Man Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 They were all wearing their sunglasses today here in Khon Kaen while out in the road collecting their lunch money from motorists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinnock Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 8 minutes ago, Phuket Man said: They were all wearing their sunglasses today here in Khon Kaen while out in the road collecting their lunch money from motorists. And that's the real issue - sunglasses, face masks and dark motorcycle visors are used to mask their identity when applying on the spot fines. Last time I was pulled over at a checkpoint the Police Officer flipped his dark visor down to cover his face before he started talking to me. Ironic that dark visors are illegal in Thailand, although admittedly he wasn't riding his bike at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunderhill Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) 15 hours ago, Ossy said: This says it all, re the RTP's 'Men of Discipline' image. And this is after the Police Chief General Chakthip's 'statement, on November 15, that officers on duty must dress properly and have short haircuts', a reiteration of the policy one month later and random checks, during February. Quite simply, officers couldn't give a shit about orders from the very top cop. There is an attitude problem, within the RTP that will be impossible to fix until all ranks literally bust a gut to carry out all rulings concerning behaviour and public image. If ranks aren't listening and obeying their boss, now, the only way to change that is to change the boss, which is what I and many other posters have been hankering after this for months, now. If we can see the spanner in the works, why can't the Powers that be? Too scared to use the 'power', maybe. Power (with wielding arms), force, discipline, respect, responsibility . . . all words that are dying the death, when it comes to Thailand's governmental departments and agencies. There's this 'couldn't-give-a-shit' disease and it's spreading without control. Any posters got an idea as to why? It's easier ( read lazier/more selfish) to not give s hit about anything but yourself, people have gotten very VERY lazy and Thailand ranks right up there but this "disease" has become worldwide.

Grumpy Duck Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 On 3/5/2018 at 2:40 PM, Grumpy Duck said: I worked in the Calif and Ariz sun for most of my life. I didn't use sunscreen, wasn't allowed wide brim hats, (only hard hats) and I failed to wear sunglasses. As a result, I developed melanoma @ 49 years old and glaucoma at 59. Fortunately I was a union worker and had an excellent medical plan eyes are better than ever after surgery and melanoma is gone. Sunglasses are necessary for health & safety of anyone working in direct sunlight all day. I also neglected to mention my main reason for the reply 5555. Wide brim hats (cowboy) do not protect against UV radiation as my dermatologist explained to me the rays are reflected off concrete and asphalt. Also, "cowboy" hats were designed to deflect rain more than sunlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see aye When I was in the Army a part of my job was to brief commanders about my findings. Once I was educated by a general to remove glasses when trying to stress honesty and sincerity. He said even clear lenses would put up a wall. Eye to eye contact is important to stress honesty and sincerity. Now I think twice when a salesperson will remove their glasses when trying to con me into an "Investment". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
