Oh my lord, and just when you thought you have heard it all. You really could not make this stuff up. No hollywood movie, other than perhaps Austin Powers or the Carry On gang, could say sh!t like this and get away with it.

Their throwing an open house for mafia members. Please leave your weapons at the door.

Whats the deal if they turn themselves in? A 3/4's cut in their sentence.

Tonite's hapiness to the people bubble will be the cream on the pie of this week's jokes.

come on you Mafia guys, hand ya self in, you know you want to, peed myself laughing.

Can anyone imagine a BIB Operational Targeting meeting ?

In considering who to target there must be no one rich, connected or with a family name, no politician or anyone connected to one, no senior police or military officer and anyone connected to one, no, no , no etc. ! No one around this table either.

Now is there anyone left we can actually go after and there will be no comeback ?

My barber Somchia charged me 30 baht for a Chang whilst I waited. Can get for 26 at my local mum & pop.

They are queuing up right now....I am sure.

Laugh all you want guys but just keep an eye on what will happen in Pattaya these next couple of week....

i cant see this having any effect on organised crime mafia or otherwise if they are anything like their counterparts in the usa or the uk they will keep a low profile I just cant see them giving themselves up.

"Commissioner-General of the Royal Thai Police Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda said the force will take legal action against crime syndicates nationwide."

Isn't that what they were supposed to be doing? What have they been doing all these years that they have been on the job?

That has got to be a rhetorical question! Otherwise we are going to be reading for hours on end asking what have the Police been doing.

Actually we know what the Police have been doing, in a word - SFA

The Police just hope to talk the "mafia" out of business, otherwise the Police have lost, again.

Does the mafia take their uniforms off? Are the police stations closing?

I'm Spartacus!

Holy Hell Trans ....what do you reckon we should do?....sing our way out of this one?...We cant run , our knees wont let us oldies run faster than a turtle....

Less than 5 hours to go!

I see April 1st has arrived early.

Oh no! I'm running out of time. Can someone pick me up!?

When does the PM hand himself in?

Is it April 1st???

Money is the root of all evil. So loan sharks should be targeted first. I've heard many a bad story concerning this type of crime. As for hitmen, the stories I've heard aren't very impressive. If I wanted that expertise I'd rather do it myself. Hyperthetically speaking of course. Supermarket taxi mafi, only a slight inconvience that you have to carry shopping 30 yards or so to the main road to get another taxi. Gambling, not seen any, apart from a couple of old men playing hi/low with some monopoly dice and a tea cup oh and that card game 9, played indoors with 1 baht coins, hardly Las Vegas. No, the mafia is used too loosely in Thailand as is terrorist in the US. The real mafia are heavily armed, highly secretive and untouchable. Members of this mafia are probably highly connected and will not go quietly. Why would the current government want to cause gang warfare in the streets in such a fragile moment in modern Thai history. Small fish to fry, big one's got away again.

They let the jet ski mafia back onto the beaches when they said they would have to resort to criminal activities (the irony) if they couldn't hire out jet skis. So are their days numbered?

The strategy worked.

Breaking news

Location: Downtown Bangkok

With less than 3 hours to go, we have received information that they are finally now on their way.

Does anyone have official count? There must be at least a few who were tagged by various influential groups to participate so as this campaign can be declared a success.. So the others can continue being influential...

So the biggest mafia wants other mafias to turn themselves in?

I was going to ask... just how many exactly have turned themselves in already? Can I count them on less than the fingers on one hand?

Meanwhile, I'm adding a new term to my Thai-English dictionary

"Influential groups" = Thai mafia = ???????????

Oh my lord, and just when you thought you have heard it all. You really could not make this stuff up. No hollywood movie, other than perhaps Austin Powers or the Carry On gang, could say sh!t like this and get away with it.

More like Benny Hill or Red Green.

For a country obsessed with face, does anyone in the current

government who releases these insane statements realize

how stupid it makes the look ???? The mind absolutely

boggles. But supposing that all the mafia members turn

themselves in for wrongdoing. So with the entire police

force gone, who will stop the regular criminals ?

And the mafia provides what % of the bonus income enjoyed by the RTP leadership ?

So THAT'S the plan?! Have them turn themselves in ???!!!

I see the local mafia types still free, roaming around Phuket. Did they top up their mobiles?

what a great idea, police forces around the world would do well to follow suit, simply tell the criminals to hand themselves in. the crime rate will go down immediately, the population dont need to live in fear of crime and the police themselves will have plenty of time for facebook. well done thailand.
