PoodMaiDai Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Either the robber was really slow and possibly retarded or the police just happened to be eating som tam next door. A bit unusual for the Pattaya police to show up on time. Took them over an hour when my mates house had an intruder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hm1973 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I can confirm it happened and I guess we will have the story on Pattaya One tommorow. I am waiting for the full details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit unusual for the Pattaya police to show up on time. Took them over an hour when my mates house had an intruder. The Banglamung station has only two patrol cars on regular duty and most calls rely on police-box call outs if someone is available at those undermanned points. Nongprue station has one more car but if they are far away it can easily take an hour to reach somewhere. The reality is that the whole of Pattaya is understaffed and under funded when it comes to regular police. The local Municipal Police are often a better bet in an emergency and as yet we don't know which branch was involved in this case or whether they were Thai police volunteers.

petercool Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I said, and I guess you meant, understaffed not overstaffed. And I was talking of regular police not Traffic, Highway, Tourist, City Hall etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai Police volunteers aren't armed are they ????? thats a worrying thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
