Not true. Just one example were the thousand hawker stands blocking the footpaths in Bangkok. For decades this was a cash cow for the bib but the army pulled the plug. The bulldozing of illegal hotels on public land. That would have been sorted in the past with a bit of extortion

Not to say the army is free of corruption but a damn sight better than the BIB

Not so; the difference is that the army deals in the big stuff - gems, logging, defence contracts, gathered country-wide, internationally and opaquely, the latter in pennies, gathered piecemeal and predatorily from the populace, and hence less easily hidden.

Did you notice the bit that said "police, military officers".

 

Once again the military are tasked with ensuring the police do their job. Whether its financial or fear, they haven't got to grips with the taxi boys.

I am very confused apparently a democratic election was held earlier this year and the New Democratic PM installed so why are there still military soldiers on the streets of Thailand surely after the election they should have returned to barracks , am I missing something.

Thank goodness the Toad took the few brief moments he was awake to issue instructions to the RTP to do their jobs. Outstanding, I'm feeling safer now.

Whether it's "fingers in pies" or "Who's eaten all the pies?", it was inevitable that a topic about ol' fatty would end up about pies before too long.
