rkidlad Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 So, be a person whose job it is stop crime but whom commits crime, and you get moved to in inactive position. Be a regular Joe whose job has nothing to do with law enforcement but enjoys gambling, and get kicked to death. I also have another one about law enforcement and 40 million Baht compared to some kratom pickers......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tukkytuktuk Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Another example of the army showing up the police. Rumor last week that police chief was going to be replaced dismissed by general prawit. This is a dangerous road to be constantly treading down. Just look at the chaos and upheaval in Turkey and the recent events in Egypt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the chaos and upheaval in Turkey and the recent events in Egypt. Don't believe the hype. Just another musical chair routine. If Prawit is serious, put police reform top of his administration agenda. Unless he and Prayut get tough on police reform, we can conclude there are collusion to the benefit of both parties.

Khon Kaen Dave Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 being moved to an inactive post,cuts deeper than you think.Imagine being on 10,000 baht a month(officially) but being able to hike it up to 50,000 with the right tickets,spot fines,Bar back handers,and all the other little perks these Dick Turpins get over a month.This allows them Mia Noi's,and all the other little luxuries,that they enjoy so much.Now imagine for 30 days,there is no more Baht being extorted and being put in the pocket. That's why they (the powers that be)do it.They know how and where to hit the erstwhile,lazy,cops. In the pocket,my friend,in the pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is corruption an all sides and it is just posturing for position not about fighting it. It goes from the very top to the bottom and there is absolutely no incentive to change anything. My brother in-law bought his promotion because that is the way you do it. The money came from his share of the bribes and back handers he receives. Now that he holds a more senior position his share of the goodies is larger and so it goes on. The army has it's own system but that is just as corrupt.
