A DSI raid on two locations in Thonburi on Tuesday netted fake designer sunglasses worth 300 million baht. 

 

Four rooms at the Dao Khanong Condominium and the BMC Dao Khanong Cinema were searched. 

 

Around 3 million items were found.

Products read like a who's who of designer goods: Ray Ban, Gucci, Oakley, Chanel, Christian Dior, D&G, Cartier, Mont Blanc, Armani, Fendi, Gentle Monster, Celine and Versace.

 

Chang Lee Lee, 42, from China was arrested after importing the goods from abroad.

Like in some US Police forces if they are/were jump qualified (in the military) they are allowed to wear them on their uniforms.

In most cases but if you're not some senile old gimp you'd recognize the different categories of the jump wings worn and what they actually mean.

Cop brother in law wears parachute wings.

 

Old father in law wanted to go parasailing. I suggested brother in law tandem with him as he was the one with wings.

 

Brother in law admitted the only jump he had ever done was a  platform jump.

The guy could have earned his wings whilst being in the military, perhaps as an older guy he now works in the DSI.

Our lad has been in a few different police jobs, he has a couple of extra badges, no wings though....????

In Tapachan market neat the emerald Buddha, there is a uniform making shop with several buckets full of emblems, insignia and decorations of all shapes, colors and meaning and the shop owner said you can anything you like to put on your uniforms, I kid you not...  

 

The guy in the picture is the top shot in the DSI, in another shot you could see 4 different DSI emblems and patches on his uniform like do not mistake me for someone else yeah?...

A few hundred street hawkers and market stall holders now out of work - no sunglasses to sell!!

[userabcd]

So was the 300 million based on the genuine value or the copy version street sidewalk retail value of the sunglasses?

Even some of the uniformed ladies down at our local Amphur office wear wings. How many categories are you talking about Mister?

Most do wear tower jump wings and that is a bit silly, yet most here would not even have the ballz to even do that but keep running your mouths.

 

I'll save 4reaL confusion and post an Engrish link:

Several teachers and civil servants I know wear them on their uniforms. None were in the military or jump qualified. I was told, rightly or wrongly, they had done a course in which they jump of a para training tower x number of times. I suspect some never even did this. None had jumped from an aeroplane.
