PHUKET: -- Phuket’s new top cop has vowed to focus his attention on crime prevention instead of crime suppression.

Phuket Provincial Police Deputy Commander Teeraphol Thipjaroen will be taking the reins as the island’s top policeman on Friday when Provincial Police Commander Patchara Boonyasit is transferred to Ratchaburi.

The transfer is part of a nationwide reshuffle of top provincial-level officers that was signed off by National Police Chief General Chakthip Chaijinda.

“Though we will continue to tackle problems as they arise, our focus will be on preventing such problems from happening in the first place,” Col Teeraphol said.

Wow, now there's an original thought. I wonder if he came up with that on his own, or if my 7 year old helped him.

One proven way to prevent crime is to arrest criminals. It ain't rocket science.....

Cue the broken record when there is a police shuffle.

We can all sleep easy now, job done.

They need a overhaul...

Phuket’s new top cop has vowed to focus his attention on crime prevention instead of crime suppression.

There is no crime suppression as the BIB are too lazy and corrupt to do their jobs.

What is his plan for crime prevention? Pay all your reward money now, we will use that to prevent the crimes?
