Soda thai Bangkok - Bangkok - Thailand Why the police thai immigration ask money for the tourist coming from west africa,they ask u 1st to show money 20.000 Baht and after you have to pay them 2.000 baht if you don't accept to pay you will not be allow to enter in thailand if you use the land crossing border,Racism and corruption........ Frank G Anderson Korat - Meung - Thailand Even Thailand's Transparency International shies away from criticizing Thai police by providing a link on its website to police corruption...in Mexico! The police are not the really bad guys here. In truth almost any Thai who dons a uniform and packs a gun will act the same way. This is corruption. Tourist without Helmet= Money ATM ma Singapore - Singapore - Singapore Was eating at mcdonalds overlooking a major road, thai police stopping only tourists on bike, charge? no helmet or license or just for the fun of it.. asking for bribes.. Didnt know that tourist was a source of money.. or even cash cow.. terrible!! Stranded in Phuket Singapore - Singapore - Singapore Singaporean car convoy drives to thailand, Stopped at "routine" road block,told that walkie talkies was illegal in thailand, tried to explain that it was for communication, they call their embassy to translate but one driver was detained n thrown into lock up. up till now no charges were filed. Erik Young Bangkok - bkk - Thailand Just call 911 or 02 255 4934 for sex with children and ask for visitor services. According to one case-worker in 2009, despite the trainings, many Thai policemen still consider sex with teen-age children “to be OK”. http://www.thailawforum.com/sex-crimes-in-thailand-part3-3.html Erik Young . - . - . A Swiss man was beaten up by 10 Royal Thai Police officers in the IDC Unit Bangkok in 2010. His only crime "no passport". A pregnant girl was left to give birth in a crowded cell without proper medical assistance in the IDC Bangkok, the Royal Thai Police would not take her to hospital 2010 Erik Young Guildford - Surrey - UK An Englishman imprisoned in the IDC unit Bangkok for non possession wasn't allowed hospital treatment for a foot infection during 2010. As a result his foot had to be amputated. A Kosovo man held for no passport was hit repeatedly in the head by a Royal Thai police man whilst having convulsions Erik Young Guildford - Surrey - UK A former head of Thailand's Immigration Police in a television interview defended the use of torture by his subordinates as the only way to deal with "bad people". The Royal Thai Police control The Immigration Detention Centre in Bangkok home to abused overstay/lost passport foreigners. Frank Bangkok - Bangkok - Thailand My wife has a mobile phone stall in Pratunam, Bangkok. Each month the police come and take money from the stall owners - a protection scam in effect. They put up the fee and when stall owners refused to pay the police took the stall owners phones. Amazing Thailand. mark dunton - essex - england the thai trfficke police so corrupt can not drive more than a hour with out being stopped to pay them cash . Gerry Bangkok - Bangkok - Thailand You might think the Thai police would be pleased to see the occasional tourist, given that the number of foreign visitors is at a five year low. Missing the wider picture, they are only too pleased, it seems. Near the busy junction of Sukhumvit Road and Soi 4 there is a police box where the two goons in brown will be delighted to relieve unsuspecting tourists of large amount of money in fines for committing the offense of... smoking in the street. So beware. My wife is Thai and we live in Bangkok. She summed it up very well by dismissing the Thai police as nothing better than gangsters in uniform. Will Thailand ever gain the credibility to get back on its feet, when the corruption is so obvious to all ? David Wenman Chiang Mai - Chiang Mai - Thailand We are two English language teachers who attempted to buy a lease on some land on Koh Sukorn in the south of Thailand. We paid over $100,000US for the land and a school that we built with our own money. During this time the lease was held up by the Police and Land Office but our lawyer said it would take about 6 months to sort out but would be alright in the end. At this time we were teaching English to a total of about 150 students. The police and land office then said they wanted $20,000US. We refused to pay. Our bungalow was broken into and pornographic pictures were left. We were threatened with a 2 year prison sentence and deportation. We refused to pay. The school we built is now empty. The books being eaten by termites. The school grounds will, Im sure, be overgrown with weeds by now. I send in this story in case anybody thinks that police corruption in Thailand is just a case of paying a little tea money when you are stopped for not weraing a crash helmet. Its not. Its backward and ruthless and tolerated by Thai society. BV Corruption in Thailand extends to Laos http://thailandcorruption.blogspot.com/ Reyong - Reyong - Thailand Thai embassy in Laos, CORRUPTION thefalang Phuket - Phuket - THailand I have lived in Thailand on and off for the past 20-years and have seen the level of corruption and evil that exists in the Thai police force. Some years ago, a friend went to the local police station to report that his Thai girlfriend has absconded with expensive jewelry, gold, cash, etc. While walking home afterwards (several hundred meters for the station), my friend was stopped by a man on a motorcycle offering to kill the girlfriend for a specified amount of money. The only people aware of the incident were the police. I cannot walk into the local police station without being approached by a policeman offering his “services”. The police view any encounter with a foreigner (complaint, accident, etc) as an opportunity to extort money. Another friend, an attorney visiting from the US, was an involved in an with an unlicensed 14-year Thai boy who, in the process of passing in a no-pass business district, struck my friend’s vehicle from behind. The local police found my friend at fault. If my friend opted to go to court, no problem, he would be required to remain in Thailand for many months until his case was heard. Several days later, the Thai boy showed up at the police station with family members in tow who just “happened” to witness the accident to bolster his “side” of the story. The Thai boy was not cited for improper passing, reckless driving, no helmet or driving without a license. Amazing Thailand…. Yet another friend was driving home late one night completely sober (he does not drink) when a motorcycle with three very drunk Thai men pulled out onto the road with no headlights. My friend’s vehicle struck the motorcycle, killing one of the men and seriously injuring the other two. Although this was a tragic accident and I sympathize with motorcycle passengers and their families, accidents should be handled in a fair and equitable manner according to the laws. The local police station demanded over 100,000 Baht to issue an accurate accident report which would exonerate my friend, even though he was completely innocent. Of course my friend was forced to pay restitution to not only the families of the injured men but also the owner of the motorcycle. Even the Thai Tourist Police have proved un trustworthy and/or willing to do the job that they are seemingly intended for. A friend was detained by the local police for a traffic accident and was not given the opportunity to obtain a translator, nor was there any effort on the part of the police to translate during his “interrogation”. My friend filed a written complaint with the local Tourist Police who simply faxed a copy of the complaint to the police station that the complaint was lodged against. My friend could not drive past the police station for many months afterwards without being pulled over and taken into the station to answer charges for a fictitious “accident” he had just caused, complete with a witness! I know that most of the resident foreigners here are afraid to contact the police in any event. Any contact with the police can result in the foreigner becoming victim of a con. The laws of Thailand evidently do not exist for the benefit of foreigners and enforced on an “ad hoc” basis that serves to benefit the Thai police or locals. It obvious that Thai people feel that “the rules are for other people”, and it appears that it’s true.
