I think I almost died laughing at this dribble, the RTP isn't even a police force, it's a mafia. They don't "serve the community", they serve themselves, and they have no intention of having "integrity and professionalism". What they need to do is weed out the "criminals" in their own agency, but that would be like paddling up river without an oar.

It’s a territorial gang war with the Russian mafia.

When kids are asked why they want to be policemen the common answer is “because I wanna make lots of money”. 
As long as the average Thai thinks like they do they deserve it.

This captures the expressions on the faces of everyone in that second photo, except for Mr. Sleepy, of course

My first thought, on seeing their expressions, was  "Oh no......he wants us to DO something!" 😲

What about all the Thai criminals we could start off with Khun Toni who escaped justice by being holed up in the police hospital and let’s not forget the RedBull guy who killed a police officer

Foreign "criminals" cannot do what they do without the "help" of locals.. whether citizens of government employees eg RTP

Any chance of a strategy to crackdown on Thai criminals?  No, thought not.

Thais are taught, at school, thais do nothing wrong.. therefore, no crimes committed by thais... so logic says, all crime is from foreigners, no need to crack down on thai crime.

Sounds wonderful, however, reality is another matter .............LOL

He was just joking to lighten the atmosphere. They look bored stiff, the third one looks as if he's asleep.

Of course they will not do anything against the powerful Chinese and Korean mafias that are setting up shop all over Sukhumvit and spreading their crime in most popular beach towns and taking away the jobs from the Thai's.

The points sounds good but you can have a millions points. This is noting more than protecting their own corruption, it is like foreigners needing a work permit foreigners are taking a corruption job from the cops.🤧

Simple - Criminal History Check required from your home country before being allowed into Thailand.

 

This is the case in the UK, USA, Australia etc if you want to move to those countries or are applying for a visa to them.

 

Impossible to implement in Thailand if you want mass tourism.

 

Nobody is moving permanently to Thailand, most foreigners are here long term on non-immigrant visas and can be removed immediately without notice if caught committing a crime.

 

Not a big problem.

 

Also, look at the amount of criminals in the UK that have emigrated using legal means that the UK now can't get rid of due to human rights or other such nonsense. The whole country is over-run with them. Doesn't seem to work does it?

 

Thailand is doing great the way it is.

Wow. Protecting Thais from foreign criminals. Any chance of action the other way round? Or just targeting criminals per se?

This may have been posted before so I'll make it as brief as I can:-

 

During the Covid "shutdown" some OAP friends of mine were caught drinking illegally. They were jailed overnight, and in the morning pleaded guilty, and were fined 10,000 baht each by the magistrate! They were then taken back to the Police Station, and told that unless they paid ANOTHER 20,000 BAHT EACH (to the Police) they would be taken to Immigration and their passports stamped with the offence, and their next application for a Visa extension would be denied!

 

TIT and this is RTP!!!
