Reigntax Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 The commissions have met budget targets and all crimes by the elites have been ignored or sufficiently covered up! Well done the RTP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhizBang Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Wow, Prawit must have VERY low standards. I swear, all these government agencies must spend more time putting together all these back slapping dog and pony shows, than they do actually doing the job they are being paid to so.

Partenavia Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 In Chiang Rai the only time you see any police are when they are escorting someone who thinks they are important. Oh yes....maybe twice a month when they are checking people wearing helmets, but they do keep "gentleman's hours" which are 9 - 1130. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanukjim Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 That is 6 months performance with the military's prodding them to do their job.With the military you would not see one tenth of the arrest or bar raids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrrizzla Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 On a year where the death toll numbers over songkran broke records? Also "we don't know" where the other 15 odd BKK bomber suspects went? You always here that the army and police don't get on, I think it is the opposite actually, they seem quite happy to scratch each other's backs.

Baerboxer Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 This is is gonna be a bit of a spanner in the works for all the Junta fans who reckoned the Army were were going to be the initiators of change and the destroyers of corruption. Are you insinuating that the RTP are in dire need of complete reform and that the total lack of action from Uncle Too clearly demonstrates that all talk of fighting corruption is just <deleted>? What a preposterous accusation!! No action - on the contrary the Army have been given powers of arrest; the Army and Navy "accompany" the police when carrying out certain raids or investigations; and several high profile cases, involving the wealthy, well connected, have been allowed to sort of fizzle out and disappear off the radar. So if the police are now doing such a sterling job, how come the military are taking an increasing role in police activities? And how come all those cases involving rich well connected people are again going nowhere except round and round the garden? I guess being satisfied is dependent on what your expectations were in the first place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srikcir Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 The RTP couldn't strip Thaksin of his police rank. Prayut had to do it by invoking Article 44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did see one on a motorbike this morning. I must enter him in my bird watching book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBadGeordie Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I wish you would all stop knocking the RTP, they were formed in 1933 and I am sure since then they must have done "6 months good work", or may'be not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhream Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 The Army and Navy are there to make sure they get their cut of the tea money. They've been missing out for years, on boats and in the jungle and all for years, fighting the war on common sense, I mean, drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
