razer Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Standard Operating Procedure for police in Thailand. So who will hold them ACCOUNTABLE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
media Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 This is Terrible!! They dont care at Jomtien police STN, They should not be in the job!It happened to me 8 years ago I called jomtien police (the nearest to the location) to report an emergency, they were kind of random on the phone, no urgency at all, talking to eachother while i was "holding the line listening" and then the lady gave me another 038 number and said call that one.. It was an emergency and I had to get hold of a pen and paper... and then try to explain the entire story to another person on another number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof3934 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 What is the point of talking to Jomtien Dongtan police. My crash helmet was stolen one day and I reported it to a policeman sitting there, hands behind his head, leaning back nearly asleep. He told me to drive home without it and buy another one. Now they have painted very wide red and white no stopping or parking marks all the way from their police box up to the beach gate. Good job for all the traffic and people. No way...... The cars park on the red and white marks every day all along the road. What do these police do and why does it go on right outside their police box?

Ths police probably put the markings there so they coud park their cars. That's who the cars most likely belong to.

The RTP are much more paramilitary than the UK police forces but that doesn't mean much either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcp0761 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Unless they get some form of monetary kick-back, they are not budging. And why, for a mere $10K Baht per month to risk their life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Police at Dongtan are useless, lazy, self-serving and corrupt. My wife's family arrested a car thief. The police wanted 10,000 baht just to take their feet off the desktop. When the case was taken to Pattaya police they were too weighed down with gold to move.
