Australian Police Observe Forensic Operations In Thai South

[OZEMADE]

The AFP have a office with a dozen or so based in Chaing mai and along with afew other countries, an office at old swampy.

Are you sure ???

Address please.

Dont have any actual addresses, but if you want to further discover and learn about what they do have a look at this site.

International deployment

In addition to offices in every Australian capital and some regional centres, the AFP also has members working at 31 international posts and 11 overseas missions.

As a national police agency, the AFP is in a unique position to combat transnational crime as it straddles both national and international elements of law enforcement.

It works closely with its partner agencies both in Australia and overseas to combat all forms of criminal activity. The AFP believes a multi-jurisdictional, multi-agency approach is essential to combating crime and in responding to emergency situations such as bushfires, tsunamis and other natural disasters.

It is also involved with helping to develop law enforcement capabilities for police agencies in the Pacific region and further afield through the International Deployment Group

Australia has expertise in investigation and cross border crime

Given Oz doesn't actually have any borders as such, where did the Aussie old bill pick up all their cross border expertise? Back packing in Europe?

Ever heard of maritime exclusion zones? Very active surveillance by way of maritime & airborne assets with Indonesia and PNG waters

It's difficult to know who benefited most from this endeavor. I am guessing it was the Ozzie's. They would be willing to listen and learn. I am not sure their counterparts are interested in anything other than impressing them with their acumen.

Hopefully the Australians will learn something from this shared experience and put it to good use in the future.

You are right Australians need to learn I was in Australians and I found they are more backward than the Thais.

Uneducated vomit!

And you are from ? ............................

PS. We don't want to know your sexual habits here.

[lizardtongue]

Delicate and fine forensic operations Thai style is about forty police men walking all over the crime scene and parking all their cars and pickups on the crime scene always better to get a close as possible so you don’t have so far to walk, and the chief forensic officer is the one with the baton under his arm so he can poke the corpse and move it about without physically touching it.

You forgot to mention Somchai with the cigg hanging out of his mouth, and the soi dogs

Apparently he is from somewhere that likes to be in Australians, looks like he is now residing in Pattaya so I guess now he wants to be in Pattayians ?

Yeah good on ya mate. We might talk funny and dress in slobby clobber but generally speaking we're a fairly caring, compassionate and switched on mob. We just project the yobbo persona to keep you confused.

You'd probably be surprised to learn there were AFP officers and Aussie forensics experts (yes, we have experts) on the ground within twenty four hours of the tsunami in Thailand. No mean feat really considering the flight alone is nine hours. Funnily enough, they didn't even need to trip all over each other and bonk one another on the head like the Keystone Cops to get it organised.

The Australians have excellent skills and demonstrated them in East Timor in 2006. They have provided valuable assistance in Tonga and the Solomon Islands. Personnel have also honed their mine and ordinance disposal skills in Cambodia and Afghanistan.

In addition to looking good in their shorts and flip flops and possessing incredible skills at beer can opening, Australians are the backbone of peacekeeping and humanitarian efforts in this region. Give credit where credit is due.

Pretty sure it's the Australians giving most of the advise and not the other way around..

Pretty sure he's using sarcasm there, doh!!

[Foggy Bottom]

Gen Charamporn led Paul Reedy, Forensic Operations Manager of the AFP Forensic and Data Centres and Australian Bomb Data Centre director Phil Winter to visit Thailand’s Bomb Data Centre and Forensic Centre

Riiiiight. So basically this was a bunch of data analysts swapping search and browse tips, and trying to agree on how to make 2+2=(whatever the government wants).

I'd have been more impressed if it had been actual crime scene investigators and forensic doctors/scientists rather than the bureaucrats.

Australians more backward than Thais... what a joke .. no wonder you live in pattaya, so you can con all the ladies of the night , what happen couldn't do that in Australia .

[exona]

Post tsunami, the haircut screwed up the entire DNA id process by sending interns in with cotton tips. Of course they used the tips on more than one corpse at a time, sending the whole process back 6 months. At that point the AFP took charge of the entire victim ID process. They were in Phuket for a year.

Those dam_n NSWers always up to no good along the Murray....

I think the Border patrol people get jumpy around "State of Origin" time.

[pogal]

Hope the Thais are supplying them good security, they have probably just become high risk targets.

Why would you say this? When was the last time a bomb went off in Australia?

[Latindancer]

Julia Gillard put one under Tony Abbott just recently

Have a look at Ozemade's post #31. Click the link and you will see that the AFP are active not just in Australia.

You may recall a bomb of considerable size in Bali not so long ago, and AFP quite involved in the investigation.

BTW the AFP was formed out of a bomb going off in Australia, Hilton Hotel Sydney.

Put on your specks and read what I said ‘Australians more backward than Thais...’ This is not a comment from me; I now live in BKK gave up on Pattaya so I have a few BKK Ozzie friends now and would not like to hurt their gentle feelings.

It would help if you can clarify the the intent/context of your comment "Australians more backward than Thais"

ask harryfrompattaya, on 2012-10-16 14:05:20, said its his comment do you agree with him ?

Sorry, but can you clarify the meaning of your post or are you just baiting???

[Jim walker]

Not baiting’ after all that useful training from the Thai police [ a general no less ] how to run things properly, I hope the Ozzie police will go home now and then smash up all there traffic speed guns because last time I was in Oz I had tons of speeding tickets on the spot fines at the road side, and other ones posted to my home address in the UK more to life than speeding tickets, a police man behind every bush in Oz with a radar gun,

It won't take the AFP long to smash up their radar guns. The only place they police in a civic capacity is the ACT (Canberra) (and Norfolk Island?). Anywhere else in the country is policed by the relevant state force.

I guess it's possible for an AFP officer to issue a traffic ticket elsewhere in the country but that'd be like the FBI booking someone for speeding in the US.

I imagine they've got bigger fish to fry (suspected terrorists come to mind) than rogue British tourists hurtling along the Pacific Highway at some ridiculous speed in one of those all-over-road motorhome thingies.

''Australia has expertise in investigation and cross border crime''

Slow down then instead of complaining.

[Scoop1]

I also hope the feds learn something, because Australia will have its very own Yala soon, "cross border protection" what a joke, over 800 boat people arrived in Australia in the last 4 days, and the powers to be would not have a clue who they are, it wont be long and Australia will be in very serious trouble from extremists, just like Yala.
