Zack61 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It’s all the fault of that pesky policeman who got in the way of a Ferrari. He’s the one who caused all this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he could have been arrested at his home immediately after the incident. Instead, chicanery took place and the family chauffeur was persuaded to be the fall guy. There are no excuses.

The people in power will protect him. Taking a life of a nobody by influential people in Thailand is not as big a crime unlike western sense of justice. Thais would accept it as fate and blame it upon the dead policeman’s karma. So long as enough compensation were made to the affected parties , life just go on. Putting the offender into jail would not bring the dead man to life .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Malaysia, there was an incident of the king killing his subject wantonly and escape punishment due to royal immunity. The progressive prime minister Dr Mahathir amended the constitution and clipped the royalty’s wing to plug the hole. Thailand can pick a trick or two from Malaysia in this regard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leef Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I used to live in Tonglor and saw the sorry excuse for a man drive around in his Ferrari. A pathetic mummy’s boy was what I thought at the time and when I saw him hiding behind his family in media interviews I thought he had the look of a dimwit as well as a mummy’s boy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Thailand, and it should always be assumed that the man in the street is on the take in one way or another. I have formed the conclusion that corruption must exist in police forces throughout the world. Using the term rozzers I assume you are from the UK where from what I have read over the years there has been a fair amount of corruption. You play golf with the Chief Constable one phone call and your problem is fixed. Australia is no different there was the Police Commissioner of the Queensland Police jailed for corruption a few years ago and going back further the NSW Premier Askin was alleged to have regular payments from illegal gambling delivered by the then Police Commissioner.

Brigand Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It is par-for-the-course that the rich elude justice here and in likewise countries of the same ilk. The corruption here reaches into the smallest corners of everything with no shame...and it starts in the lowest levels of the educational system where it is considered as acceptable...no hope when it's like that really.

Yeah right, dragging a copper along Sukhumvit whilst under the influence of alcohol and drugs, trying for someone else to take the fall, rest assured if it was Somchai from buriram, he would be prosecuted to the full extend, even in Thailand. The point of course is that by putting this fellow to jail, one protects the society from idiots like this. He does not belong behind the wheel of a vehicle, and he does belong behind bars. There is a reason why the junta changed the law just for political office holders, justice does not come into play...

So is it really any different here or anywhere else, money talks Agreed, I recall the West Midlands Crime Squad brouhaha some years ago. I believe however that Thailand still takes the prize. Here, corruption is a part of the fabric of society, they're all at it from top to bottom. The value of the corruption market has variously been estimated at 30% 35% and 40+% of GDP, it's just huge. If you killed off all the corrupt people in Thailand, there probably wouldn't be enough people left to cut the rice. Took me a while to acknowledge that and since I did, I've had to up my estimate of how many people in Thailand are corrupt. These days, I use the rule of 80/20 - 80 are thieving, the rest are either strupid or are regarded as stupid by their peers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was arrested as far as I know and released on bail (as usual) and then departed for Singapore, while there he developed a life threatening cold which took for ever to be cured during which time he was far too sick to return - the rest is or will be past history shortly seeing as now most charges are now past their statute of limitations as will the major charge at some time in the future unless changes are made. And you are correct, no excuses except his hi-so status out trumps the rule of law. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
