All About Buddhism: Phra Siam Devadhiraj The Divine Guardian Angel Of The People Of Siam
Bangkok Post recently published an interview with a well-known celebrity, Mr. Surachate Hakparn (alias Big Joke), about the injustice he suffered when his car was full of bullets. When asked about his situation, he said he was confident that the facts of his case would emerge, stating, “Thailand is protected by the tutelary deity Phra Siam Devadhiraj. Corrupt people will eventually suffer the consequences of what they did.”
Why did Big Joke have to leave the field?
He was called the Thai super policeman: Lt. Gene. Surachate Hakparn, better known by his nickname 'Big Joke'. You know him from the many actions in tracking down and arresting foreigners who were working illegally or who stayed in Thailand without a valid visa. The motto of his work was therefore “Good Guys In, Bad Guys Out”.
It's big news in Thailand: Pol Lt Gen Surachate Hakparn, alias Big Joke, has been transferred. He has been transferred to the 20th floor of the Royal Thai Police Operations Center. It is unclear why he was transferred and may even be imprisoned, which causes all kinds of speculation.
