The mother of all U-turns? Prawit names Big Joke on police rules committee

Just days after Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister General Prawit Wongsuwan said that Big Joke's days in the police force were over comes news that suggests the contrary. 

 

Daily News said it was "hilarious" that Lt-Gen Surachate Hakparn - the former poster boy of the Royal Thai Police who was sacked from Immigration in April and given a clerical job - has been named on a sub-committee that oversees police rules and regulations. 

 

They said that General "Big Pom" Prawit had signed the order that Surachate - universally known as Big Joke - would be on the police committee under the chairmanship of deputy national police chief Pol Gen Wirachai Songmetta. 

 

The important committee decides on police rules and behavior. 

 

Earlier in the week, Prawit - and even the RTP chief Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda - said Big Joke's career was over.

 

Daily News indicated that the announcement was very low key using abbreviated words perhaps suggesting that the appointment might slip past unnoticed. 

 

Speculation about the reasons Surachate was sacked from immigration and given a clerical role in the Prime Minister's office has been the talk of Thailand over the last two months.

 

Surachate's career in the police seemed destined only for the top and no reason was officially given for the move to the PM's office. 

 

The latest news that Surachate will actually play a part in deciding police rules will only stoke the fire of speculation, notes Thaivisa. 

 

Daily News were beside themselves with the humor of the situation though there was no official quotes from those involved in their story that was based on a document they had seen.

As long as "Big Joke" stays away from corruption investigations...

He doesn't have to be on the Police Force to be on the committee he can act as a member of the public .

A damning indictment of Thailand's descent into the gutter that either of these rotten ego maniacs are even employed by the state, smh...

....wonder if this counts as an "inactive post"?

 

 

But it is ok if Prawit says and does what he wants. He is always innocent of every scandal.

This is how it's been working for a few years now: Junta denies something, a week later it's announced as happening.

you can't make this shit up.

Looks like you can????

The whole NCPO cabinet is fill to the brim with lying and cheating mother of all corrupt ministers. And the leader of the pack is perhaps the biggest mother of all. 

These people have more faces than Big Ben.    You can't trust a single word that comes from any of their mouth's, born cheats and liars the lot of them.

In other words whatever they say actually means the opposite . Now that it’s very clear, much easier to keep up with it all

U-turn,more like the Magic roundabout,

regards worgeordie

the wrong guy got the Big Joke nick name.

Prawit seems to be an expert - just "watch" how he doesn't perform - he is responsible for road safety - speaks for itself 

 

In other corrupt countries it's usually a single all powerful dictator that fills their coffers with billions - in Thailand there's a gang of them

 

The only way to remove them unfortunately is a civil uprising seize their assets  and prosecute the lot - but in Thailand there is no guarantee that who seizes power are going to be any different - highly likely not

It would appear that in spite of his girth and "medical issues" (that are preventing him participating in the up coming cabinet), Prawit is demonstrating his masterly gymnastic abilities with a brilliantly performed back-flip with pike. He topped the gymnastic performance of with a perfect landing with no sign of a stumble or step off his mark.

Big Ben does not have a face but the clock has four faces, one looking in each direction.  Big Ben is a bell and makes a lot of noise as does the watch keeper.  Maybe he would like to add Big Ben to his collection except it may be too big and too heavy to have on his wrist and there is no deceased friend who is capable of "donating" it.

'nuf sed

What qualifications does little fatty have to be deputy PM?

He has a belt made out of watches. It's a waist of time.

You gotta wonder what kind of leverage Big Joke has got on the poo yais.

Keep your Friends Close 

 But keep your Enemies Closer 

 

Sounds a similarity of process:

Swap P***** to Police

Swap P***** to Politicals 

It looks like some compromising photos have turned up?

More big joke news, and in one sentence the watch borrower is also mentioned. It reflects badly on Thailand that these two idiots are in a position of power. They are not even capable of running a dam bridge club.

But it's just what the Big Controller wants Thomas, and with a big puff of steam Thomas the Tank engine puffed off
