The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is still a big issue in both Thailand and all around the world, severely affecting various dimensions including economy, society and security. In response to effects of the pandemic, the government has issued many policies and legal measures for controlling the proliferation of pandemic; the Royal Thai Police has also been assigned to enforce the laws and implement the measures strictly in order to prevent the spread. In regard to the duties, the Faculty Division of the Police Education Bureau, the Royal Thai Police cooperated with the Hanns Seidel Foundation Thailand/Laos in conducting the research project on “Application of Community Policing for Controlling the Proliferation of Coronavirus 2019 disease in Thailand” for the purpose of enhancing knowledge and emphasizing the importance of community policing in Thai society.
The research project conducted for seven months aims to study the usage of technology in order to maintain peace and explore the functions of Thai police in helping relieve the severity of COVID-19 pandemic as well as point out key factors that lead to success of the proliferation of the disease in local Thai society. The results of the project indicate that “Community Policing” is an important doctrine used in raising awareness and understanding of local people for the purpose of cooperation between local people and local government organizations in preventing the spread of COVID-19 pandemic.
The report of the research project was published as a printing version and online. It can be accessed online via the Hanns Seidel Foundation Thailand’s website.
