Good Police

Featured Replies

After all the bad Police stories.

Today the police drove our soi and gave everyone a sheet of paper and the vice boss of the police station explained.

There is a gang of "White Muslims" that brake into houses. We should lock everything, pay attention etc etc.

I don't know what "White Muslims" are.....But still nice to warn everyone and have a friendly chat.

That is very good to hear. h90. Did they also promise your soy will be patrolled more intensively?

That is an interesting concept from the BiB and as Dancealot says, it is good to hear.

Are we allowed to kill the ones we catch stealing? Are they good on the barbeque? whistling.gif

the last 2-3 days I saw them at least 4 times, slowly patrolling with the police pickup and the colored light on the top (don't know the english word) turned on.

But the last house villa in the soi is owned by some high ranking policeman. So the question would be if they also patrol the other sois...

It all depends on the sauce :D

I recommend "low and slow" bbq. A concept that seems to be missing in Thai bbq :(

Police over here is not bad either they patrol the village, i am sure some compensation goes to the police for that.

I wonder if it the letter actually said khaek-khaow, a common epithet for the lighter skinned variety of those people who tend to be from Islamic, Hindu or Sikh cultures.

Many Persians, Georgians, Armenians, Turks and Greeks et al are commonly labelled as khaek-khaow whilst the swarthier ones are just khaek.

Khaek means 'guest'. Most people think that they are called such because the first major contact with foreigners that Siam had was with Persian traders.

The term KHEK_KHAW is generally used for westerners who have lighter skin with ASIAN looks , regardless of religion, the gangs arrested in past 4-5 years were ,ostly from South-American countries.

So the Muslim thing was just a wrong interpretation, right? It could be also lighter skin Catholic....

I already wondered how they could know the religion, if they didn't catch them, yet......

Who a Thai refers to as khaek-khaow is subject to the Thai's assumptions based on appearance and the Thai's experience and education.

"and the Thai's experience and education."

understand.......

during an incident in sydney outside a nightclub, I saw an angry tongan confront a muslim, he turned white for a few seconds.

White musslim, great description !!!! There has to be some motive for the cops to do this, TIT

Nice bit of racial profiling. A bit vague though, but enough to stir up suspicion and intolerance, I suppose.

Rattles a few cages on this forum, as well....

Khaek doesn't necessarily mean muslim. People who might fit the description of khaek tend to originate from as far east as Bangladesh, as far west as Morocco, as far north as the Caucasus and as far south as Sudan. The vast majority of people who fit into this grouping follow either the Muslim or Hindu religions.

It shouldn't take much realise that there are other people around the world that could be mistaken for khaek too (depending on the education and / or experience of the person categorizing them) such as some Italians, Greeks, South American mestizos, loog-kruengs, Balkan Europeans, Jews . . .

Indonesians, Malays and some southern Thais have been referred to as khaek but to be fair some of them do look quite swarthy as they've had far more contact with Indian, Persian, Arab and European traders over the past 500 years than Thailand has.
