ChaiyaTH Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) Waste money on BMW's for a minority of foreigners doing something wrong, most who still won't be bothered regardless to these smart cars. Same time nothing being done about significant numbers of Thai crime, loads of tax payers money wasted & worse impressions from foreigners. To not forget a normal cop would need to buy his own uniforms, gun, motorcycle etc. Am I surprised? Not at all. How does it make one feel about Thailand? Worse, really starts to feel the only thing missing is a yellow star on my arm. The concept of being innocent until proven guilty does not exist in this country either, I doubt it ever will. Like it isn't sick enough already, having to confess to a crime one didn't commit, in order to be able to sit out your time back home (or get less jail time). All this depending on corrupt police their moves or the wrong time and place + person you meet, even you are a good legit guy. Now we get privacy intruding smart camera's on luxury BMW's on top of that. Thank you Thailand, I feel more welcome by the day.

But, who am I to judge and I'm sure a third world countries police force really need BMW's Tch tch, you fail to realise that when, in due course, enough vicious overstayers, and degenerate, negligent householders have been caught, these cars will be redeployed to their real purpose - ferrying assorted senior officers and their wives/Mia noi to and from their homes. They will give a couple of years sterling service in this role, until cam belts fail and engine management warnings light up - then they will be dumped ( sorry I meant placed in deferred maintenance storage) round the back of various office complexes. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 A perfect example of people coming to Thailand for work who had Visa and permission to come to Thailand at airport or border crossing. Keep it up Immigration and you will stop the building construction too as you have stopped visitors coming to Thailand. It good you have new cars to catch all Law breakers who not have Visa, but you will need to Catch the BTS, Buses and Trains too, to verify every single person. Going thru all of Thailand populations. I am sure you now have a lifetime position going thru all 65 Million Thais obstacle course? Is It really good to punish all foreigners from any country breaking TM30 Law? However you are now going thru the Thai people, Your people? Such loyalty?? Why not teach the Thai Children in school your principles, They will give you their honest thoughts as children always do? They will rebel against your stupid law! Any one agree? Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P100 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Thank God they have at least smart cars. I guess some Toyota could have been fitted with notebook and internet connection too, but maybe BMW internet is better. Ridiculous how they waste tax payer's money while being a third world country.

The irony of that as it is most times landlords who are officially responsible for it (Thais), both in case of rental and in case wife owns the house. Those who own a condo (foreigners) often do their reports anyway. In that same scenario the BMW smart car is quite useless too. But wait, maybe we missed something, Thailand 4.0 right? The camera can see trough the walls too, even up to the 40th floor. Edited January 28, 2020 by ChaiyaTH 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manhood Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Big Joke was right! Waste of money as just some want to drive BMW on cost of the taxpayers.

sniggie Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 When I am in our house in isaan (rather than my condo in Jomtien where I am 'registered') I tell my wife that she has to report me. She gives me the sort of look that suggests senility has set in and I am sure that she takes no further action. But I've done my bit and it is not me that is breaking any law. However i doubt if the Immigration Police would like to drive their nice new smart BMWs along the dirt and gravel road leading to our village. Stay on the tarmac, lads!
