snoop1130 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 RTP commissioner-general's promotion of son followed law, regulations, police personnel director insists By The Nation Following complaints against the Royal Thai Police commissioner-general's “unfair promotion” of his son, Personnel Division Police director Decha Kalayawuttipong held a press conference today (February 4) to state that commanders found Chanon Chaijinda – who was promoted from sub-inspector to company commander – trustworthy and skilled, which led to his promotion. Decha said Chanon has been trained as a special forces leader and joined in international programmes including an anti-terrorist one. However, as Chanon has been working as a sub-inspector for less than the recommended seven years, the police had sent the matter to the cabinet for a solution, which received approval on April 30, 2019. “The department considered the promotion based on skill, which applied to the position that relates to field operations with high-risk potential. It also helps create specialist officers. I ensured that all the processes of promotion were met according to the law and regulations,” Decha insisted. Chanon reportedly passed various training courses, such as an EOD course in 2014, the Naresuan 261 anti-terrorism programme in 2016, a free-fall course in 2017, post-bomb investigation from the ILEA in 2018, and a Border Patrol course for police commanders in 2018. He also attended courses from foreign institutions, such as a Firearm Instructor course and a sniper training programme from SIG Sauer Academy in the US; training with the Australia Federal Police Specialist Response Group as well as with the 2nd Commando Regiment in Australia three times; training with France’s Raid Unit; attending a post-bomb investigation programme in the US as well as being part of the FBI National Academy 2019 programme; taking an IMI Academy Sniper course in 2019 in Israel; and participating in the Special Operations Competition in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Popular Post Denim Posted February 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2020 I believe him. It is one of the few laws respected by the wealthy and powerful. Section 3 of the nepotism edicts subsection 3a. ' you shall always advance members of your own family to senior positions if it is in your means to do so.' There it is , in unwritten invisible but accepted ink. Can't argue with the law. 9 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post observer90210 Posted February 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2020 Of course all was done by the rules. There is absolutely no corruption within the Thai Police. The whole issue is a big misunderstanding. And remember to eat papayA daily as it is the only known cure against the foreigner imported CoronaVirus. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post colinneil Posted February 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2020 Who are they trying to fool? When is any promotion here done correctly, it is either by being related to a senior officer, or by the size of the brown envelope. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM's brother did pretty well for himself, and then brother's son too from what I remember. We are only repeating the obvious to ourselves. Going nowhere. Any chance moderators could read and inform us what Thai press is saying about stories like this instead of launching more repetitive coronavirus threads? 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unashamed nepotism and cronyism. He doesn't even go red when he is spewing this garbage in press interviews he is so self righteous and thick skinned. Isn't it amazing that today they boast of all the highly rated and skilled foreign courses this guy has been on, meaning they understand and acknowledge that the West is way ahead of Thailand in all aspects of fighting crime, or else why would they send him? On the other side of the fence, there is a double murder and Scotland Yard wants to bring in expertise to assist the Thais in capturing the perpetrators, and are prepared to bring in the latest in forensics technology free of charge, they are dismissed out of hand and told the Thais have the capacity and can handle it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benmart Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) It seems that corruption is a daily staple, consumed by those who are fat and overconfident that their diet will never change. When the herd on which they feed becomes tired, they may loose some weight. Edited February 5, 2020 by Benmart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
