It’s a growing industry, but fortunately, when there, they don’t have to do anything productive. 
Still plenty of positions in the “moved sideways” vacancies. Rumour has it that new offices are under construction to house them. Of course many brown envelopes have been handed out for the contracts to construct them. 
Everyone is a winner in the BIB world. 

The franchise which is more or less a pyramid scheme in itself, could not function otherwise.

good job, he makes it look so easy to name and shame corruption even among his classmates. one of the few swimming against the current

Generals gathered in their masses just like pigs at the trough ????

was at jomtiem immigration today...i think a ten minute investigation would uncover a lot of nefarious visas being procured in preferential ways for a brown envelope properly distributed..

Possibly, but how many were connected to Chinese businessman?

Not many, YET, but aren't they on their way over from Phuket as we speak?

Non Chinese need to participate in the corruption on an individual basis. 

 

Chinese (practicing their domination of nearby countries as client vassals) can organize it all on a mass scale.

Wait. Cops on the take in Thailand? I'm shocked!

Anything that comes out of the mouth of the biggest joke, cannot be taken seriously. He is a grandstanding, PR grabbing, nonsense spinner. 

 

The real problem is, they will not go after these guys. Not the top bankers, not the high ranking guys, not the provincial authorities, and certainly not the army, or the police. They are all corrupt beyond imagination. And the level of corruption simply escalates, the further up the food chain you go.

 

The police, immigration and the army are not expected to be honest, and they are not expected to engage in law enforcement, traffic or public safety, on any level. It is an irrevocably broken and dysfunctional system. Any hyperbole to the contrary, is just a smoke screen, intended to deceive the most naive amongst us.

 

The Anti-Corruption Organization of Thailand (ACT) is one of the most feeble and ineffective of all the tools Prayuth has used to deceive the people into believing that he is fighting corruption. Who was the last high level authority, in the police, immigration, the army, or the active administration they arrested, charged, tried convicted, and sent to prison? Nobody. Zero. Nunca. Nada. Why? Because Prayuth has had a mandate from the beginning to do the very opposite. To protect the elite, the super wealthy who are guilty, those that are connected, and those who are in power.

 

Just think Dark Tao. Just think Red Bull. The list goes on, and on, and on. Only the most naive amongst us believe he or ACT secretary-general Mana Nimitmongkol are sincere about this. 

 

It barely matters. These guys are above the law. Any and all laws. The only time they are arrested is when it becomes big news, or it is reported internationally, and Thailand gets a ton of egg on it's face. And even then, it normally does not result in a conviction. Very, very few current (not former) police, immigration, customs, cabinet officials, army officials, or administration officials are arrested here, tried, convicted and imprisoned.

My guess is it is one of the lowest rates in the world. The corruption here is never ending.

Bravo Bravo!   A pure realise who understand how things really work in the real world of Thailand, especially with big joke I hope his fans wake up and read your remarks!  In the end the joke are on them. 

???????????? bs all go onto inactive post nothing ever changes in Kwailand 80 only ????

It always amuses me to hear that Thailand actually has a National Anti Corruption Commission.

Oh those Chinese, first they create trouble and now still doing it here, but 80 officers, come on really, you couldn't find that many in a week

no idea but sure are a lot of "agents" there that appeared to my eyes to be getting special treatment and i suspect that might result in a few thank you envelopes to some immigration bosses who enable it....

But, but, when I walk into a certain large supermarket chain in Thailand, owned by a certain powerful Thai-Chinese businessman, who many have said is actually secretly Chinese, it's practically China in there! Red lanterns and decorations everywhere, shiny red Chinese clothing for sale, Chinese sweets on display in fancy packaging right as you walk in the door, and Chinese music blaring out of the speakers wishing me a happy new year, over and over, as I had my coffee last week. I thought we were going all out Chinese? What gives?

Thailand is completely in the hands of the Chinese, it is evident that the Thai people are their slaves but they don't know it and they don't care.

Their only desire is to work for the government and reach the middle class.

Too happy to have Facebook and Tic Toc keeping them busy on a daily basis ????.

 

Shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on here : )

It's just hearsay for now, but a high ranking official mentioned me that the authorized size of the "Inactive Post" division is going to be increased. It's to be funded by CCP discretionary Belt and Road Benevolent fund.

This is only the TOP of the Ice Mountain!!!!!

The vast majority of these posts are inactive anyway.

Maybe not "all the way to the top."

The National Police Policy Board is chaired by PM Prayut. It is the Board that must approve promotion of police generals to national police chief. Prayut has been PM since 2014. Many times over the last several years Prayut has promised to eliminate government corruption. 

"Many times over the last several years Prayut has promised to eliminate government corruption."

Being a downright liar is the only one thing this unelected PM has in common with the normal politician that he claims to be.

Just one question in reply to this...

Why?

"including three generals, "   not sure but I believe Thai Generals are usually in inactive posts, unless they are protecting Thailand from free and fair elections.  Lucky that Thailand has plenty of spare Generals....

When this scandal broke a couple of weeks ago, the head o)0f Immigation Police was reported as saying that his people were squeaky clean. I realise now he was talking about personal hygiene......:smile:
