You are right, wifey just told me, he got fired. Easy to recognize the number on the helmet, so his boss fired him immediately. All over the local news. Bagna - Trat (sorry for spelling) road.

kurnell Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Fired? If everyone gets these guys on video doing their normal daily duty, there will be no more cops 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I find it hard to believe he got fired, they normally transfer them if they been a bad boy. Only thing he did wrong was getting caught on video, everybody know a police man can't live well on his salary and has to make extra money to support his family. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of hard to ignore it when more and more people in the kingdom talk about it, after it was shown on several national stations and went online. His boss was put in an difficult position in front of the cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel2003 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Corruption, is cancer on the society. Unfortunately, when a population more or less don't give a shit about the law, and choose to pay off Officials and law enforcement personnel whenever they break the law, then the population is part of the problem, and not only the ones taking the bribes.

rene123 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It's just a different form of tax. In western countries we pay the police a good wage and expect them to do a good job. But, it all comes out of our tax budget. In Thailand the police are paid a pittance of a wage and are expected to make up the difference in bribery. How many westerners enjoy paying $300 fines for driving 15 km over the speed limit on a wide open highway with little or no traffic? It happens all the time in the west. How many people like paying a $100 fine for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign... even if there is no traffic? It happens all the time in the west. If I come to a traffic line-up in Canada I have to wait in line if I'm on a motorbike. In Thailand I can go between the traffic to the head of the line. There is something to be said for both systems... both good and bad. In many ways I prefer the Thai way to the over regulated methods in the west. In North America we keep trying to make laws to prevent stupidity but it doesn't work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The first question I have, following the Thai politicians who are former policemen, which came first the corrupt poltician or the policeman? Second question, what criteria is the move from policeman to politician based on, is it similar to testing for rank advancement, need, quota, or possibly what you know on someone else? Is there anyone who knows the true number of people involved/paid, on police payrolls? Would be interesting to see the number of people on the payroll on the political side also.

I can only say... santika, hanging bridge in Ayuttaya and others.. corruption is a cancer as long as its so bad it costs lives because you can make all the safety and traffic laws you want.. as long as there is corruption they won't be enforced. Only people liking it are people who don't see the big picture. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is something to be said for both systems... both good and bad. In many ways I prefer the Thai way to the over regulated methods in the west. In North America we keep trying to make laws to prevent stupidity but it doesn't work. The difference is that the people who can least afford paying those bribes suffer. Often people are not guilty of a traffic violation, but are extorted. Do you really think that's fair? I could see your point if the police only targeted violators, but they are indiscriminate in who they target. Do you honestly think, that the collection of the money Thai style benefits anyone in the long run? It is also counter productive for the control of dangerous drivers. Where you come from, drivers that get fined usually get demerit points too and there is a cost associated with those demerit points when it comes time to renew insurance. Get enough demerit points and a driver loses his/her license. Those demerit points and those fines encourage good driver conduct. When one can bribe his/her way out of an infraction, there is no incentive to behave. So again, I ask you, do you think this behaviour serves Thailand's best interests? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
