webfact Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Chalerm to recruit police as teachers in Deep South BANGKOK, 24 January 2013 (NNT) - Deputy Prime Minister Chalerm Yubamrung has proposed a plan to recruit border patrol police officers as teachers in the Deep South in the wake of another deadly gun attack on educators. A 51-year-old teacher was shot dead in the premises of a school in Narathiwat province on Wednesday, bringing the death toll of teachers in the restive region to 158. Police Captain Chalerm is holding talks with related agencies to discuss plans to recruit police officers to teach in the three southern border provinces. He reasoned that security personnel who can carry arms on school grounds would be able to defend themselves better against insurgent threats. He further suggested that a heavier police presence in the border areas is needed. Over 6,000 more policemen are being recruited from nearby provinces and are set to be deployed to insurgent-hit districts. -- NNT 2013-01-24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post EyesWideOpen Posted January 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) This is great news !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now when a policeman is caught doing something really wrong, instead of the famous and classic inactive post, they can now be sent down to the south and try to do some good by teaching... But wait..........if every police man bought their position for a million baht, and they spend all their time figuring out how to extort money from people, what could they possibly teach children??

Soutpeel Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 One suspects the only thing they will be teaching is how to extort tea money and possibly firearms training... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robby nz Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I thought you had to have certain qualifications to teach? Possibly Chalerm's son could be sent south to teach after all he has been pronounced qualified to teach police. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent idea. Duang has proven his marksmanship and is a Police instructor to boot. Chalerm should offer him up post haste. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbamboo Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) Chalerm is beyond a joke even for a Thai politician. Presumably this cop teacher would be armed just waiting for the chance for some muslim punk to make his day.

slapout Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Chalerm might be coming out of one his seemly many stuper stages again. Give the man his bottle and tuck him in bed for the duration. He has to be one of the best comercials for the use of humans as cannon fodder, we could ever hope to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimamey Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Unbelievable. One minute they're trying to improve the qualifications of teachers and next they don't need them. Why not employ policemen to go to schools so where they can concentrate on stopping the killing and let the teachers concentrate on teaching. Of course this would cost money to employ 2 people. Just out of interest do teachers cost more than police? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locationthailand Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Unqualified as teachers, qualified as licensed to shoot. Great solution. Again, Amazing Thailand. Is there no end to these stupid ideas from people who have no common sense or logic? Wake up Thailand... throw this government out whilst your still have a country.

Tywais Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Why don't they just station them at the schools and let the teachers teach? Guess too much to think about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorecard Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 It seems to me that most of the southern insurgents are pretty good at ambush and surprise attacks. Does chalerm think that police acting as teachers will always be alert enough to notice and defeat the insurgents? So how do they concentrate on teaching? You make so many claims mr. chalerm about how you will fix everything, so show some results, fix the problem, and stop trying to put illogical band-aids on the problem. By the way how did the appointment with mahatmir go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEL1 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 How many teachers have been killed, again? This might just rid of a few more corrupt BIB, without the being caught red handed part, especially if they've got their back to the class. -mel.

JetsetBkk Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I thought you had to have certain qualifications to teach? Possibly Chalerm's son could be sent south to teach after all he has been pronounced qualified to teach police. He also has knowledge of small firearms, I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
