Surprisingly, very often the police can be efficient and resourceful. Its a pity all of them have to suffer with being tarred with the same brush over allegations of corruption, unreasonable bias and violence.

I don't see why it should be surprising. Thai society is close-knit and fairly all-seeing, and Thai cops know exactly how to tap into that. They also get plenty of practice. Most of my dealings with police over the years have been here and in Japan, and in my experience the Thai ones tend to be a lot more street smart than the Japanese ones.

If there's a charge here in Thailand that can be laid as 'Theft after Dark' between 7 pm and 4 am What is the charge for 4 am to 7 pm; 'Theft in the daylight hours'? Shouldn't it just be classified as simply 'Theft'? Sorry for the dumb question. I'll bet the Chief of Police is happy, just look at all the Pakistani's mates lined up with him.
