Thai police is going to have a new short-sleeve uniform
|
Thailand may allow its police officers to cool off by wearing a new short-sleeve uniform, a move they hope will also help save energy at police stations, a spokesman said Saturday.
Thai police currently have only a brown, torso-hugging long-sleeve uniform that they wear even while directing traffic in Bangkok's sweltering heat.
National police chief Sereepisut Taemeeyaves has proposed a new lighter-weight khaki uniform that would have short sleeves to make it cooler for police on the street, spokesman Pongsapat Pongcharoen said.
Sereepisut also hopes the change would help police save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by encouraging officers to turn down air conditioners at police stations, Pongsapat added.
"We have discussed changing to a new police uniform for a long time, to find something more relaxed and suited to our climate," he said.
Approving a new uniform is a complicated and lengthy process, and will require the police commission to seek a change to the laws regulating the force, Pongsapat added.

上周六，泰國(guó)警方一名發(fā)言人對(duì)外公布，泰國(guó)警察也許不久就能換上清涼的短袖制服了，泰國(guó)政府希望此舉還能幫助警察局節(jié)省能源。
目前，泰國(guó)警察只有一套棕色的長(zhǎng)袖緊身制服，就算炎炎烈日下在曼谷街頭指揮交通，他們也得穿著這身行頭。
據(jù)發(fā)言人彭薩帕特?彭查羅恩介紹，泰國(guó)國(guó)家警察局長(zhǎng)舍里披素?德米亞威提議將目前的警察制服換成更為輕便的短袖卡其布制服，這樣在街頭執(zhí)勤的警察就能涼快得多了。
據(jù)介紹，舍里披素警長(zhǎng)還希望此舉能減少警局辦公室內(nèi)空調(diào)的使用，以節(jié)省能源和減少溫室氣體的排放。
彭薩帕特說：“關(guān)于警察換裝的問題，我們已經(jīng)討論了很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。我們想找到一種既穿著輕便、又適合泰國(guó)氣候的服裝。”
他說，新制服的審批要經(jīng)過一個(gè)復(fù)雜而漫長(zhǎng)的過程，而且還需要警察委員會(huì)對(duì)相關(guān)法律做出相應(yīng)的修改。
