JAG Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) I know that they are pulling in just about any Turks they can find, but lifting the Ambassador is a bit over the top! Edited October 10, 2015 by JAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Haggis Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Very surprised the Turks have not called in the RTP after today's bombing which so far has killed over 30 people. They would have the case solved in days but they might upset the Turks by staying it wasn't a terrorist attack, just one of revenge !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amerasianex Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 That's smart move no one expects Thai police to know all the answers. But the citizenry expects Thai police to use all resources available to find them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gringogazzer Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Careful my man, look what happened last time when the Saudi's where in town to investigate something. Just nod & point at the main suspect... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NongKhaiKid Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 A couple of mornings ago Channel News Asia reported the BIB had stated all enquiries would be finalised within the next three weeks and presumably said before the idea to ask the Turkish Ambassador to ' assist '. It's bad enough the BIB feel obliged to talk almost non-stop but just as bad is the fact they completely forget what was said in the preceding statement which makes them look even more stupid than usual. If they had actually considered the need for the Ambassador's help before stating the case would be wrapped up in three weeks would it not have been more appropriate to confirm he would assist before being so confident about a closure date.

oneday Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Amazing! How long have the RTP known Turkey was a huge connection with this bombing and they are just now calling the Ambassador for help. Wow! That is a very slow response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehard60 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 i thought this was all over and all set. Maybe they did not do a good job the first time out.Now they are asking for more help, but they gave the rewards out already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 "police had planned to call on the Turkish Ambassador to discuss the progress in the verification of the passports of Abudureheman Abdusataer" The police need to go through the Thai Foreign Minister for any discussions with the Turkish Ambassador. Such a direct contact is diplomatically incorrect and rude. The Turkish Ambassador is a representative of the Head of Government. For the police to make direct contact with him would be like the Director of the USA FBI contacting Prayut for a discussion on police matters. If the Turkish government is willing to have a discussion with the police, it will be coordinated between the Foreign Minister and the Turkish Ambassador. It is these kind of diplomatic miscues that isolates the Thai government from the world community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long exactly would it take to verify passports? Also this reminds me, did they get back to the Turks on the whereabouts of the kingpin who fled the day before the bombing. Are the Turkish people or their diplomatic officials hearing any of this drivel, it is accusing them of murder, international terrorism in fact.
