Surasak Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 3 hours ago, new2here said: It’s going to be very very hard to effectively root-out the so-called bad actors from the RTP…. very hard In large part because IMHO systems of this size - ones that are national in scope and where there is no effective “check” to their power - are set up to be self-protecting and self-sustaining … it’s goal is to insulate itself from external “attack” and to ensure its continued existence. So, I think you’re really asking the system to “self-police” itself .. which is something it isn’t set up to do in the first place…. The only way I see is to have a wholly independent, external body with equal power, set up with the explicit mandate and explicit legal authority to reign in RTP actions, personnel and policies. And look at the money that could bring in!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White being the color of transparency and Innocence. Don't look to closely or it will be Tamruat See Daang - Red Police Red being the colour of embarrasment at what they find......

Any +ve result = death by firing squad. 2)any corruption - such as extorting marijuana users for cash = death by firing squad with all policeman's assets going to his victim. 3)corruption in the court. any swinging verdicts for cash or favours = death by firing squad. 4)pay a fair living salary will probably work, but I don't think the RTP and judiciary will go for it! I doubt that there is enough ammunition frankly! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herfiehandbag Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 A catchy slogan - "White Police". A crackdown announced. In a couple of weeks, maybe less, a couple of scapegoats will be stuffed in front of the cameras ( I should imagine that the "middle management" backsides in that neck of the woods are going sixpence/ half-a-crown, sixpence/ half-a-crown like nobody's business waiting to see at whom the finger is pointed)! Then back to normal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

node Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Would help Thailand if they would employed an independent firm and do a full psychological evaluation of all personnel "captain to cook" in the RTP / Army / Navy / Air force, and weed out the bad apples. I think 95% would fail. Doing this would mean Thailand do do not have any security personnel. Then again, they would just be moved to an inactive post and reinstated once the dust clears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJ2U Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 To much money and people with influence involved. Nothing will ever change. Luckily it isn't as bad as Haiti. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does he mean.... unlike all the prior supposed crackdowns when their big pronouncements were really just for show, and their real institutional corruption and misdeeds continued unchecked -- save for a few transfers to inactive posts here and there....

Grandpa Cool Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 12 hours ago, Aussieroaming said: Another case of " let us investigate ourselves" with promises to be thorough. The RTP have long been known as completely corrupt and nothing will change because a career in the RTP is really just a vehicle to wealth, hence why they pay an entrance fee. For some reason remanding of and acceptance of bribes has been omitted from the guidelines for the new "Police Angels". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geisha Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Maybe the government ought to dig deep and find the reason for all these terrible murders and act . Drugs, alcohol abuse, corruption, poverty , in your face prostitution, violence in homes and on the streets. There’s a lot going on that needs fixing. Unfortunately there are only a few good experienced cops in their force. ( one name mentioned often) . They need more educated men to take on such a task.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkfish Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Promises today will be soon forgotten!
