speedtripler Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 A new process for crime solving in Thailand, Non involved individuals offer rewards, supplied by themselves, to those providing info to solve the crime, payable via BIB of course. The rewards in this case have been publized as cash payments. Where do they go from here in the future national image /security threats that will have to be handled and solved quickly? Possibly a contest between the elite families as to can give the mostest, the quickest, prior to any legal conviction. Sounds like practice runs to hiring a group of what some would call a private army to do your bidding. The question I would like to see answered is why Somyot and even thaksin thought they had to pay millions for their juniors to investigate this terrible crime... What happened to a chain of command and giving orders?? Does he not even have enough leverage over his own guys to make them do some work for the salary they already get??

waldroj Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) It's just that, once they get a taste for it, they develop an insatiable appetite for more! Seriously though, as quite a few people have noted above, it seems that the PM is unable to restrain these guys (the rotten tomatoes). This episode makes me think just how tenuous Prayut’s hold on power may be. One can only imagine what may have happened if the police chose to side with the ‘elected’ government when the coup was being carried out.

I think the army could teach the police who's in charge pretty quickly if that happened Nobody wants to use heavy duty arms on their fellow countrymen so I guess the police would shit themselves if army tanks surrounded their hq and aimed the cannons squarely at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razer Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 It is not about justice for the victims and their families. It is not about respect for Royal Thai Police and a job well done. It is not about bringing honor and great face to Thailand. It is all about reward money. How disrespectful this is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphaflight Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I think it's incredible that the police need rewards to do their jobs. Even if it is not really done. No agency, if not corrupt should be accepting any payouts............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapfries Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 The cost of staying relevant / in the news = 7 mill for spoiled dynasty brat.

dageurreotype Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Where did he get 7million baht from to start with? I know, bloody hilarious isn't it '"I have no worry about giving the Bt7 million reward. I have been ready [to do this] for so long," Panthongtae said in his post yesterday.' Well that's big of him.

ginjag Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Thaksins attempt to keep 'HIS POLICE FORCE" on his side, to my mind it has nothing to do with the bombing. As if they don't get enough with the never ending road blocks, taking from the stupid Thais who refuse to wear helmets. This is a FARSE---not a FORCE.

It is because they are bent, unashamedly bent. And the sad thing is it is accepted, it is the norm in Thailand. Andrew Drummond has a lot of followers, and there are people who think he is a lying dog.

David Cameron and oral sex with a pig - the Cronyism and blatant. The Bush's starting WARS to benefit their oil companies. A little corruption out in the open is better than the US, UK screwing the entire world but all very underground that most are too stupid to even see it going on. I love Thaiand and have been here just over 30years I hate seeing these , usualy retired, moaners trying to belittle Thailand while probablly not even able to say more than "thaorai boom boom tee rak" in Thai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really don't know what amounts get thrown around in the back rooms Taksin alone is worth billions of $, God knows how much he benefitted personally from the rice scheme or other schemes he masterminded under yingluck and the ptp Probably a lot more than the paltry 7 million reward to catch the bombers But I guess we can only imagine a fraction of what that whole family might be worth...

mrrizzla Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 The junta allow the cops to reward themselves. Their old boss through his conduit giving them cash rewards for doing their own damn jobs!
