Big Joke demands top job at Royal Thai Police HQ

Featured Replies

General Surachate Hakparn, popularly known as 'Big Joke', made his return to the Royal Thai Police headquarters this Thursday.

 

The former top police officer pledged to take legal actions against what he strongly believes is an internal conspiracy aimed at thwarting his chances of becoming Commissioner.

 

Recently removed from his position, 'Big Joke' voiced grave criticism on the current acting National Police Commissioner, General Kittirat Phanphet. He singled out the acting chief for particular scrutiny, stating that his dismissal process was legally flawed and argued it was based on an outdated procedure.

 

Surachate argued his displacement was executed based on an obsolete method, which was superseded by the updated Thailand  2022 Police Act. The assertion insinuates that his removal may have been unceremonious and potentially unlawful.

 

Despite the challenges, Surachate remained steadfast in his belief that he is the most suited for the role of the National Police Commissioner. He reiterated his aspiration to assume the position in October.

 

Asserting he was the best fit for the National Police Commissioner role, he subtly criticized the acting Police Commissioner, General Kittirat Phanphet. 

 

Hakparn spoke out against a group within the police force he described as a 'cabal,' which he believes is trying to thwart his advancement. He promised to initiate legal action against them.

 

He contended that the method used for his removal a week prior was ill-conceived and based on an obsolete process replaced by the 2022 Police Act. 

 

After retracting a complaint against the Prime Minister two days prior, Hakparn made a resolute comeback.

 

When addressing reporters, he affirmed his position as a deputy police chief, arguing that his dismissal hasn't been officially confirmed with a royal decree.

    Now it would appear he is showing signs of significant mental health issues. His grandstanding with the media all these years demonstrated a huge ego. Guess all of this is just too humiliating for him

  • Signs of mental illness? What do you base that on? If he is clean a wrongfully abused in a plot to overthrow his chances of advancement to top position, is something nobody know. However, I find it ha

An episode titled "The Thing That Wouldn't Leave" right out of the Twilight Zone. Chick gets dumped by her boyfriend and then runs off, in a state of unparalleled delusion, telling all of her friends that she's getting married to the bloke. You can't make this sh*t up, but in Thailand this pathetic grandstanding at the higher echelons of power doesn't really surprise anyone either.

Now he's demanding the top job despite being dismissed from the force?

 

A bit like demanding an Oscar because you thought your acting was better than the movie that won it, and telling the panel to reconsider and watch it again.

 

As other posters have said, he just doesn't know when to call it quits.

 

No good will come from this methinks.

So he was fired and charged but he does not recognise and accept it because it was not published ?

 

Interesting that he does not mention any charges

Signs of mental illness? What do you base that on? If he is clean a wrongfully abused in a plot to overthrow his chances of advancement to top position, is something nobody know. However, I find it hard to understand why someone would fight as much as him to get things out in the light? Never seen that before, and it would be very stupid if he was guilty.

We all know what party won the election, but the stronghold of power easily reversed that. We have seen many situation where uncomfortable persons get pushed away by made up stories, so this can very well be one of those. I am not posting he is innocent and squeaky clean, but instead pointing out the possibilities.

 

Writing like you have done Mr Spider, is very disturbing, as you have no back-up for it whatsoever. The only thing you have done, is to spout a lot of unconfirmed garbage.

Maybe he do not need to mention them as they are starting to go away as most of all other made up stories do after having the publication time of effect.

What's the odds on that asked Big Ballsak 🤔

The only thing that springs to mind is that he got a top job again after he made a big fuss when he was removed as Immigration Chief, maybe he thinks it will work again if he screams loud enough?

Possible, but that is not mental illness, like the poster I quoted wanted it to be. That is just a try at a former working concept. Like I say, I don´t know. Might sound extreme that he would be falsely accused, but strange things happens here. He might also be dirty as hell. Probably also something we will never get the full story about. The reason for that might be that he know too much things that would hurt more powerful people. Who knows! He might also be one of the clean and good guys. They actually exist, even if they are rare.

Also, as you state he made a big fuzz, and got a top job again. It was not that clean cut. He made a fuzz at the start. After that, it took long time in silence before he came back out in a top position. Just like it might have been enough time to make an investigation that concluded he was not guilty of any charges. Therefore he was reinstated in a similar position to keep his lost career going.

This seems like a thoughtful post.  To what extent do well-positioned crooks prefer to do battle in private rather than the public eye? 

 

Using media and public opinion seems like a risky strategy for a real crook.  So much to lose, and enemies knowing where the bodies are buried... 

 

But this is Thailand

And what evidence and authority do you base this diagnosis on?

 

All I see is unsupported speculation.

Clean or dirty, was he "ill" when they at shot his car, too? 

He’s been watching Trump. Make noise, create diversion, throw others under the bus hoping the criminal accusation against him goes away.

I do not think for 1 second that this Saga is over with! A lot more is yet to come and there is a very good possibility that the General Surachate ( Big Joke ) will be back and even stronger! There is a lot more in the play that we don’t know about! Stay tuned!

This man needs to set his goals higher, Prime Minister would be a good starting point 

Isn't he responsible for making retirees keep money in the bank all year round instead of just 3 months of the year?

That has been a thought for quite some time and not just coming from the current round of nonsense.

The fact that "higher ups" want him out, makes me trust him more.

His "higher-ups" are Prawit and Thaksin, among others.

 

The fact that they are not supporting him now is telling.

 

He seems desperate and irrational, which is unusual for him.

 

Filing a complaint against the PM, and then withdrawing a few days later points to this irrationality.

 

 

He should print out a big vinyl sign with all this stuff on it, and have his photo taken in front of it.

 

Otherwise, no-one will be able to understand what is going on.

Unconfirmed garbage. I like that. I guess some people need a White Knight, or at least the appearance of such. He filled that role, without doing any of the actual work. Amazing the power of words and excellent PR, these days. 

 

This guy IS unhinged. Now, he IS starting to behave as if he is guilty. Deny, deny. Trump style. Putin style. 

He is making a big fuss about the way they ousted him from his position but he doesn't say anything about being innocent of the charges against him
