He said despite his earlier announced policy to take drastic action against drug selling in nightclubs, the Suthisan Police Station allowed continuation of the activities.Two other nightclubs in the area were also found operating beyond the 2 AM curfew.Police Lieutenant General Kamronwit said a committee has been set up to investigate the charge. If found guilty, Police Colonel Samroeng would face harsh prosecution, he said. -- NNT 2013-07-30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaidam Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Hilarious. Transfered for ignorance of duties, by Kamronwit who should long ago have been transferred for ignorance of duties. This Mr. Suanthong must have been the wrong kind of crim? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignorance is not correct, complicit involvement would be more accurate.

Badbanker Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Police Colonel Samroeng Suanthong is a very nice guy and was transfered not so long ago from Thonglor Station. Problem is that all Bangkok Police areas have gambling dens and other illicit activities in their areas controlled by either green or brown. Issue is that if you, as a Superintendent of a Police Station, are caught out for something, superiors are asked to make an example of you rather than they getting punished. Thats how it works over here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katipo Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 'Ignorance of duties'. How does one get to be come a Police Chief General if one is ignorant of one's duties? No, wait, don't answer that. Don't answer that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's terrible wishing someone be moved to an inactive post. The worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. Think of all the trauma he will be under, suffering at a desk job elsewhere. having to live with that until his pension is paid.

Don't answer that. I think they may be using 'ignorance' as in ignoring (dereliction) rather than lack of knowledge. I don't know, when I have issues with customer service representatives here I am always told that i "don't understand" (which angers me to no end btw...). I think that in Thai culture it is far better to be ignorant than to willfully neglect a duty or otherwise knowingly create a problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case, why would anyone want to be in an active post? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
