webfact Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Police adopt scientific approach to fighting crimeThe NationBANGKOK: -- The Metropolitan Police Bureau (MPB) plans to apply research findings to its crime-prevention plans.It will take about two years for the Thailand Research Fund (TRF) to complete the studies on which the MPB will base its new approach."We have decided to turn to research in a bid to analyse problems and tackle their causes," Metropolitan Police Commissioner Lt-General Kamronwit Toopkrajang told a seminar yesterday.He said the application of research findings would replace outdated methods currently used by police."We believe the use of research will help lower the number of crimes and the cost of police operations, while allowing police to deliver better performance," Kamronwit said.-- The Nation 2013-04-04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Morden Posted April 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2013 Well, that might do some good one day. A hint to the researcher from me. Change the wage system so that cops aren't directed each day to focus on offences that make easy cash and sit on their <deleted> for crimes that demand the use of energy and thought. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fareastguy Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 A new program no doubt to be installed on a computer network linked to all stations. Input all the available crime info into the software which will then short list the possible outcomes. Then hit the "eenie meenie miney mo" button.. Wonder what the budget for this marvel will be ?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locationthailand Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Another useless article skirting the subject without giving any hint as to what is going to be done and how. And then of course the multi billion b=Baht solution that will be 10% payment for goods and services and 90% disappearing into the corridors of Thai corruption, thus defeating the entire exercise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LuckyLew Posted April 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2013 If they get allocated a special budget for this I sure hope they use the funds better than they did for the money that was allocated for the building of new cop shops 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OzMick Posted April 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2013 Dear Nation Editor, shouldn't the photograph have some relevance to the story?

PhilipCook Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 CSI (any major city) in Thailand would be a hoot, wonder if the culture masters would approve though. What about Pattaya or Phuket 55. Target a regional audience, enlist the resources of Thai sponsors to promote their products regionally.

Tatsujin Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Police adopt scientific approach to fighting crime So what was if before then, an un-scientific approach? i.e. you're nicked son . . . why? . . . cos I said so and you happened to be an easy mark . . . On a more serious note, rather than trying to do it all themselves with 2 years of "research", would it not make more sense to follow some other countries example? Oh right, they can't do that, cos no other country is better than Thailand at anything. Stupid me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paymaster Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 This is what they call CRIMINOLOGY. This was the field of study chosen by Doctor, Police Captain, Past Prime Minister, Fugitive Absconder TS. I'm surprised that the statistics are not already collected and collated. Still it gives the BIB a two year holiday while they wait for the results of the research. Tea money in the mean time from research funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
