SKIRMISHER

Thai police officers who are caught doing something that’s a popular Third World police behavior — like, you know, engaging in corruption and stuff — are being made to wear an eye-catching Hello Kitty armband.

The armband is designed to shame the wearer, police officials said.

“This is to help build discipline. We should not let small offences go unnoticed,” Police Colonel Pongpat Chayapan told Reuters news agency.

“Guilty officers will be made to wear the armbands in the office for a few days, with instructions not to disclose their offences. Let people guess what they have done,” he said.
