joebrown Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 When I read the headline I fully expected to read that at least half of the local RTP had been moved to inactive posts! One can only dream. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know the police are working so hard. Working hard stood outside the police station on beach road nicking tourists for not having a Thai motorcycle license, you mean?... maybe these guys just happened to be driving past on their stolen bikes and were mistaken for tourists.

Woody1 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Maybe one day they'll realise just how stupid these ridiculous photo-shoots make them look, how many officers to they need to cram into these photographs? Absolute classic!!! One is playing with his phone, another is giving the accused a brotherly hug, and they chose Pattaya to present this, along with a sign reading Sattahip Police Station! Do the reporters or the BiB have a clue what they're doing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godders Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 What's the Thai equivalent of the term "good public relations", I wonder? The nearest I can get, with the missus' help, is nah mai muan kai. Certainly doesn't apply to this lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iReason Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 "The Provincial Police Commander ... chose Pattaya to present a selection of the higher-profile cases to the media." "Khun Dilaerk who is believed to be a serial motorbike thief" "Khun Prasit aged 50,... is accused of motorbike theft and possession of unlicensed firearms." That's all we have for you today folks. These two guys. Two "Higher Profile" street urchins. Absolutely pathetic. Probably cost the cops more for the "media event" I can only hope, some Thai reporters were scratching their heads and saying, Huh??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penwithcris Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 It would never happen in Thailand but Hong Kong replaced their own failing police force with British police. Despite their occasional failings I don't believe British generally policeman succumb to bribery, and the result was a huge drop in all areas of crime on the islands I've worked in the British Civil Service as a Diplomatic Inspector and could have retired early as a millionaire if I'd accepted all the financial incentives I'd been offered But there is clearly something in the Thai psyche that assures them that illegally accepting bribes is quite acceptable Graft and corruption is endemic in Thai society. Unless there is an enormous sea change then a concerted 'clean up' of Pattaya, and other crime ridden cities, is always bound to fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basil B Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I recall not that so long ago some UK police officers used to do some arm twisting, getting petty criminals to cough for crimes they did not do just to get the unsolved crime figures down.
