re: "Police fail Tangmo test" (BP, Editorial, April 29, 2022)
Dear editor,
If the efforts of the honourable officers of the Royal Thai Police, whose sacred commitment to selfless service nurtured the impressively successful Joe Ferrari, that paragon of selfless service to the nation reliably doing whatever it took to eradicate the baddies, is suffering the casting of wicked aspersions and downright insinuation of truths, mere business as usual may not be enough.
Happily, the bloomed branches of eternal Thainess offer a more efficacious solution. Impossible though it be to credit anyone seriously entertaining such a notion, should there indeed be as alleged some faintest sliver of "distrust in the police" the solution is simple: criminalize any expression of less than perfect faith in the Royal Thai Police. That will immediately make them a perfectly revered Thai institution universally trusted, respected and loved by all for generations past. Job done. Joe Ferrari and his mentors would be proud, and that most impertinently inconvenient video would never have dared come to light.
