ravip Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 So BJ is back! The TVF experts theories that circulated when he 'vanished' are now proven false! If my memory is correct, some top experts even predicted that he was gone for 'good'! Now, as usual, those experts have vanished without trace until the next incident that would call for some expert opinions on conspiracy theories! LOL LOL nice way to spend ones retirement!

I agree that his "survival" was miraculous. Last I remember, he was "assigned" to the PM's office to investigate new ways to handle complaints from the public. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had things to read on immigration, there were no BMW smart cars back then if memory serves me right, seriously, things are too quiet without this guy at the raines, is it possible that he cleaned all of those overstayers up while his new incoming took the credit, bring him back, and the Shinawatra's while your at it as it was all positive news, with this lot, it's all doom and gloom. That is not my recollection at all. Covid apart, it is much better now, at least in Jomtein. I can't speak for other offices. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmatix Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 The story about him was that while making the rounds as bagman for a timepiece enthusiast he tried to shake down some cops with better connections and make some disrespectful comments that were not appreciated. He was lucky to be only fired due to his connections intervening in his behalf. Perhaps his inappropriate behaviour has now been forgiven and he can make himself useful again.

phetchy Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I know that Thais have a way of finding an appropriate nickname for each other for everyday informal use which is sometimes related to a characteristic or trait of the person concerned. This is clearly borne out by the current media furore over "Boss" Vorayuth. What concerns me a little is how did Pol Lt Gen Surachate Hakparn get to be called “Big Joke”?

Aye, well we can joke, but maybe hes coming back to clean up all the overstayers come end of Sept/August. For folks on overstay, id be keeping a VERY low profile. Those so-called smart cars with the facial recognition software/cameras have been known to even patrol around Isaan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Shinawatras were not soldiers as far as I know, so bring them back, but not this other guy, his Maj/Gen "rank or whatever", and fancy uniform covered in bling nonsense is sure just one Big Joke. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlandtday Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 If my math is correct that is about 70 million us dollars to install cameras and some computers and software at 6 airports. That is about 10 million per airport. No wonder he questioned it. Wow someon must have mad some serious skim profit from this venture.
