MJCM Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 No that's true, but will find out themselves faster then Pattaya Mail or Thai Visa can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercool Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Yes, that's also true but regular checks at regular times and places still catch people surprisingly often. I am also not sure why these events need advance notice but that's what happens a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 What is the fun in keeping things quiet ? I don't think they wanna pass on any chance to get attention in the Media (especially with the elections ahead) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercool Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Yes, at the end of the day senior Police positions are also political ones and resumés/pubicity are a vital part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
