Last weekend’s arrest of the Jomtien Beach murderer was a reason for celebration for the local police force, however the new national Police Chief’s visit to Pattaya has left many of the city’s gendarmerie psychologically scarred due to his criticism of their lackluster performance in create an atmosphere of order.
Threatened by snap transfers and blocked promotions the police in Pattaya have asked for understanding from the nation’s #1 copper.
70% of Thais supporting the new chief should mean the police might actually do something other than arresting gambling parties where the wagers are 50 baht or standing on street corners in those tight uniforms.
Oh so sexy.
I’m presently writing a sociological study of the infamous Soi 6.
The title.
VIEW FROM A WHOREHOUSE WINDOW
Mint the skinniest girl this side of the Biafran conflict is my main source of information. She has been squatting in an abandoned townhouse in Jomtien Beach. No door. No windows. Paying 1000/month to a discredited cop. His and his other cop friends are off the force after the national cop’s visit. Maybe two months without pay. They now spent their days playing ‘hi-lo’ cards and snooker, while they aren’t getting drunk, which is exactly how they spent their days before they were suspended.
Cops and you got to love the slang name for police in Thai.
Tam-luat or ‘make blood’.
