Thai police lose their cool - no more sunglasses
An internal letter issued by the Metropolitan Police Bureau reminding officers to dress appropriately circulated across Thai media over the weekend due to one bullet point — cops are now banned from wearing sunglasses on duty.
Aside from dressing sharply and keeping their hair trimmed, the letter dated March 2 warned policemen that “wearing glasses on duty is forbidden.” The new rule was thought of by Pol. Gen. Chalermkiat Sriworakan, a deputy chief of the Royal Thai Police.
Pol. Gen. Chalermkiat said that sunglasses are not the police uniform and he’s seen some officers sporting flashy lenses which he thought were “inappropriate,” Thai News Agency reported.

Re: Thai police lose their cool - no more sunglasses
So they still have to wear those skin-tight polyester uniforms in 100°+ , but now they aren't allowed to cover their tired eyes? The latest round in the ongoing spat between the cops and military in Thailand.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
