Thai Tourist Police Activity in Hua Hin QUESTIONABLE?

Post by RoboCop »

I would like to hear of anyone's personal opinions or views on the quality of service you have received from the tourist police in Hua Hin? I have noticed that most of them are trying there best to help out tourists in need but the numbers of those actually employed and doing an effective job is often questionable based on particular officers in the force. Anyone interested in volunteering?

I found the tourist police very helpful. I had one police officer call to the place we were staying and was so polite and helpful. He was looking for sponsors for a football team at the time. Think they are good. :)

Whenever I've had dealings with the Tourist Police - in my own matters or interpreting
for someone else - I've invariably experienced the TP as polite, helpful and friendly.

No complaints, rather the reverse!

I do my best not to have any dealings with any police of any kind. :wink:

There are but I have no idea how many.

Edit: on first read I missed the word "farang".... I haven't seen any of those except in Pattaya.

If you SEARCH his posts you will understand why, I think.
