Rimmer Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Pre-High Season Police Parade on Pattaya Beach PATTAYA:--As local Police divisions attempt to persuade Thai and Foreign tourists that Pattaya is a safe place to be, a parade took place on Pattaya Beach on Friday afternoon.Police Major General Surapong, the Deputy Commissioner of Region 2 Police led the parade which involved Pattaya Police, Pattaya Tourist Police, Chonburi Immigration, The Royal Thai Navy and Police Volunteers.A major crime crackdown was announced and began on Friday and will conclude on 16th October, during which time extra efforts will be made to solve existing crimes and to suppress existing ones. - See more at: http://www.pattayaone.net/pattaya-news/149651/pre-high-season-police-parade-on-pattaya-beach/#sthash.utbcn7kP.dpuf -- Pattaya One 2014-10-11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya28 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Fantastic !!! A 6 day "crackdown". Much will be achieved for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vision2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 OMG... it drives me a bit crazy that the "parades" frequently take place on Beach Road with absolutely no advance notice. In most cases I don't mind but to hold a parade to celebrate the ineffective police force is pathetic. I feel better now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggt Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I feel so much safer now...thanks for the parade...how many crimes will be committed while you guys are marching up and down Pattaya Beach road? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no crack down or crime after October 16th.. I can imagine what the crackdown will involve, arrest of the freelancers along beach road and possibly walking street, stopping foreigners on motorbikes who are either not wearing a motorbike helmet or whose pillion passenger is not wearing a motorbike helmet etc while the pickpockets, drug dealers, muggers, rapists get away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrerakiss Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Fantastic !!! A 6 day "crackdown". Much will be achieved for sure. Crackdowns aren't what they were, I can remember when you got 10 days out of them. That said, this is one of the many PR exercises that the BIB will conduct in order to improve their image in the light of recent critism. And the funny thing is, they actually believe these PR antics do them some good, meanwhile everyone laughs at how stupid they look and sound. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benmart Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Superfluous displays are often accompanied by exaggerated results. I would like to see an independent group provide a monthly police report card on: Number of calls for police services Average time it takes for calls to be answered Average duration of calls Types of calls by category Average time from calls received to arrival time at the scene Time to clear call and go,back into to service Numbers of calls by type Percentage of calls cleared with some type action, (report taken, arrest made, no action necessary, etc). Number of traffic citations issued and by type and how,cleared (fine, warning, arrest) Location of crimes in the city by neighborhood,and what type. ...And so forth. Wishful thinking on my part, but just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cracker1 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I look forward to "Pattaya One's" statistical report of the results reached by the police at the end or this :Crack Down" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilymat Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 OK then. So what is the difference between 'solving' existing crimes and 'supressing' existing ones??? By the way, they love their uniforms - all those medals and everyone seems to have been in the parachute regiment. Blimey, I was in the UK Army for donkeys years but got no medals as I wasn't in any type of war zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MZurf Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 It must be compulsory for the BIB officers to be chucked out of an airplane. Don't think I've ever seen one without the "para wings" . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
