Immigration police promotions dogged by rumours of nepotism

[snoop1130]

 

An opposition MP in Phuket is demanding an explanation for a recent police reshuffle that saw the nephew of Thaksin Shinawatra’s ex-wife promoted to the top job with immigration police at Phuket Airport.

 

Rangsiman Rome from the Move Forward Party took to Facebook to question the appointment.

 

He also questioned why Phuket’s former commissioner of immigration police resigned suddenly and was immediately transferred to Prachuap Khiri Khan, with a replacement appointed.

So, ummm.....is this where I insert the Youtube video clip from Casablanca?

 

"I'm shocked....."

[mark131v]

Just cosying up to the boss in waiting for when he is released from his luxury hospital wing and then mysteriously cures himself!!

 

Just more evidence if any where needed that Thaksin, PTT and every last hi-so or Thai institution bar none are absolutely corrupt and rotten to the very core

 

The whole shebang needs to be burnt to the ground then rebuilt from the embers nothing else can work as whole system is rotten beyond redemption...

Hard to achieve from a predominantly, lowly educated, dumbed down, suppressed population!

Do they not realize the difference between "rumours of nepotism" and blatant nepotism???

And that's stating the facts mildly.

[quake]

Nah.

I don't believe a word of it.

Thai people are not like that when  they get into a position of authority.

No way.

Quite, it's only a rumour, that opposition MP should be facing deformation of reputation charges.

[ChrisY1]

Of course, top cop at immigration at Phuket would likely be one of, if not the biggest, money making scam sites in Thailand.

In Thailand, it's impossible to escape the grip the RTP have over every profitable enterprise....legal or otherwise, the cops are always at the front!

 

[scottiejohn]

How do we know he was not promoted on merit.  Just because he is related to a Hi-So does not necessarily mean his promotion was not deserved!

Give the man a break, this is more likely just mere mud raking without facts!

Yes!

How do you know who has been promoted by merit or by connections.  It is just your deluded assumption that all promotions are not based on merit!

"Immigration police promotions dogged by rumours of nepotism".

 

Surely not, I am shocked, shocked I tell you!

But who will rebuild it without corruption? rhetorical question.

[brianthainess]

Lets ask 'His' advisor how to stop it. It will never ever end, the money must flow to the very top.

Bye, See you in a week or so.

It's amazing that ageing gets you a promotion.  I swear some of these companies have people on the payroll that haven't turned up to work for decades.

[bamnutsak]

The previous Imm Chief in Phuket, Col Thanet Sukchaiwas, appears to have been forced out (he resigned, but then maybe took the Prachuap Kiri Khan Imm chief position) to make room for this nepo baby.

 

It is a lucrative posting.

There always has to be one that respects the government's deeds despite the evidence in many previous cases.

So you never got promoted as you got older and learned more about the business!
