I think it depends on whose brother-in-law you are, so can be as cheap as 20K - but I've heard 100K is the norm. That's to get your foot in the door, probably extra to have the examiner give you a passing grade.

 

Downside is they still have to provide their own gun, ammunition, and scooter. The reason you see many BIB buzzing around on a pink Scoopy is because it belongs to their Ladyboy sister.

Is this real, or just more "brown envelope" supposition.

Sad if true.

Nobody fails exams here in Thailand, I was told it's 400,000 to join, maybe places like Phuket are more expensive with more crime here,

Well, even at a conservative 100,000 per position, that's 755,000,000 baht for the officers selling those positions, that'll take care of quite a few mia nois.

Wife's cousin joined recently........day one after graduating.....deep south!

 

I wonder if a good proportion of this 7,000 will find themselves in a similar situation.......thinking they were going to be wandering around Sukhumvit taking tea money.....whoops!
