This happens everytime a government takes charge.

They are only spreading their power base by having their people in charge.

Different cops, same shit.

How many Colonels, Lt Colonels and other officer ranks does one Island need ? The Keystone Cops had nothing on this bunch of Clowns.

Well if we are to believe the information gleaned from the bust of the big cop a month ago tied into the big family, those that paid get promoted to a better paying job at a mere cost of 3-5 million. I've heard the top jobs here go for up to 20 million.

They will all be checking their horoscopes soon to see if they need to get a removalist in.

They could start by removing the Koh Tao cops ...... what a bunch of crooks ..

Now they have to set up a new network of piggybanks somwhere else.
