I am not that clever in "ThaiVisaForum-speak " but I have the impression it is related with (to?) the Thai police.

Anyone ...?

BIB - a thing to keep your babies clothes clean whilst feeding

or another name for the cops, think of colour of their uniforms in the UK

Boys in Blue maybe

Boys In Brown.

Used by Farangs who want to pretend to be all ghetto-experienced and 'in' on any police dealings. Pretty sad usually. There's a couple more expressions like that.

EDIT: Present company excepted, of course.

Now now Sam, you know we made a distinction some time ago by putting "is" instead of I

But of course B is B

Can't blame a guy for trying!

.....and all this time I thought BiB was an indication of their investigative prowess...... Brains in Butt

OK. Thanks to all of you for your reactions. This new valuable knowledge makes me feel much more mature here in CM.

Bandit's in Brown....

I think the term originally came from the UK = Boys in Blue.....referencing the UK police

Blimey, it's Bobbies

While we are on the subject, why do BIB wear black and some brown and some other colours.

To distinguish between the real police and the amateur thieves.

Down my way they now have GiB.

And I do love a women in uniform.

If you`re lucky one may put you under close arrest.

It can be used for Boys In Blue (Western) and Boys in Brown (Thailand)

This thread originated in the Chiang Mai forum and it often does stand for Butter is Better restaurant in that forum.
