About 200 police volunteers will supplement sworn officers over the New Year’s holiday in Pattaya.
Nikom Sangkaew, head of police volunteers at Pattaya Police Station, chaired a Dec. 23 preparation meeting in the Soi Khopai Community.
Nikom laid out the guidelines for supporting police to prevent crime during the three-day Pattaya Countdown.
He explained that the job of volunteers is to prevent crimes from occurring in the first place rather than trying to suppress crime or catch criminals.
A key to doing that is working with local residents to obtain information or tips about possible problems, Nikom said.
