Phuket named least corrupt police force in Thailand: Everyone laughs

When those in charge of enforcing the laws are the first to break them (in exchange to fill their pockets) a new and strict law is created to be enforced, you should not criticize them or say the things they are doing because otherwise they will come after you as if you were the worst criminal.

Meanwhile they will continue to favor the one who fills their pockets and when they can they will take from the common citizen under any excuse to get something extra, it is sad when people like that are in charge of your security.

this is the way of the world unfortunately. I know it exists everywhere but it is a lot more obvious in this country for some reason. We don't have to look very far to see how the laws are generally designed to punish the poor while the rich almost never get convicted of them. Rules for thee, not for me! Is how the saying goes!

Here in Venezuela the brazenness is such that when they see a uniformed person they immediately label him as a bandit, just for wearing the uniform of a "representative of the law". Because they have become so corrupted to the point of omitting dissimulation.

I would say that we mostly feel that way here in Thailand as well. The theft is small but it is still theft and this is mostly money stolen from an already really poor population.

A very sad reality that hits the most needy very hard!
