Many people, including me, have already decided for themselves where the army and elements of the RTN stand.

Well he'll be right at home in Chiang Mai. Wonder why he was transferred.

BANGKOK — The commander of the Royal Thai Police says there is no political pressure behind the departure of Bangkok’s top police chief, Pol.Lt.Gen. Kamronwit Thoopkrachang.

Pol.Lt.Gen. Kamronwit will swap places with Pol.Lt.Gen. Suthep Detraksa, the chief of Region 5 Provincial Police in Northern Thailand, after the decision recieves official approval in a meeting set for Friday.

According to Pol.Gen. Adul Saengsingkaew, chief of the Royal Thai Police, the reassignment was due to recent shifts and resignations among top police chiefs that required Pol.Lt.Gen. Kamronwit to fill the top job up North.

Pol.Gen. Adul dismissed speculation that politics are behind Pol.Lt.Gen. Kamronwit's reassignment.

As the commander of Bangkok’s Metropolitian police force, Pol.Lt.Gen. Kamronwit was responsible for containing the anti-government protests organised by the People's Committee for Absolute Democracy With the King As Head of State (PCAD).

In late 2012 he raised the ire of many anti-government critics by hanging a photo in his office that shows him receiving a rank decoration from former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, along with the caption "I am here today because of you, brother."

Quote, "Police Commissioner Kamronwit, who has close ties to the fugitive, Thaksin Shinawat"

No folks, it's not 1920s Chicago or The Godfather it's Thailand, the land of democracy.

Is it any wonder that the RTP have the lowest respect rating of any institution here... and there's some serious competition for that accolade. smile.png

Obviously, no shortage of generals in the RTP. They've got plenty to go around.

Generally speaking, that's true. But then again, Thailand has almost as many generals as G.M. has motors. It seems to be a major problem.

Yes, in Hong Kong. So here we have a newly promoted police officer who goes to another country to thank a fugitive for his promotion. To call this a banana republic is an insult to bananas!

No, no, it's a general problem, not a major problem.

Gen. Adul has defected from the government for some months now. His removal of a close Thaksin ally to Chiang Mai is most likely in preparation for the trouble ahead. Gen. Adul wans people who are loyal to him, and not Thaksin, in command of the police of Bangkok. This is a blow to the government and it means the police will have to be strict if Jatuporn's next rally gets out of hand.

Thailand has about equal amounts of generals and cashiers, but very often they overlap.

Now I get a clue, why none of the attackers (grenades and shooting) on the protestors has been arrested or identified.

Camronwit to be transferred

I am not sure what that means

Order from Dubai, because mercenaries will be needed in Chiangmai?

Decision of his senior in order to get rid of a biased officer - so that the police can start doing their job?
