Nongprue residents can now feel safer as the Banglamung Police recently opened up a new police office in the area. The new station is located on Nerbplapwan Road about 4 kilometers from Sukhumvit near the old Nopngprue government office and the new football stadium. The new police station, located on Nunplubwarn is the latest station to serve the residents of East Pattaya
Police Colonel Somnuk Junkate, Superintendent of the Banglamung Police said, "We are following the policy set by the Thai Royal Police which is to improve the efficiency of local police stations as well as its officers by opening up a new police station in Nongprue. We chose Nongprue because of its rapid growth in the number of houses, apartments and residents. Not only that, Nongprue is also close to the heart of Pattaya and crimes and robberies occur on a regular basis with gold snatches and house robberies."
The Banglamung Police Station Nongprue branch offers the same services as other police stations. It is open 24 hours a day every with police officers ready to assist locals and foreigners during all hours. There are also police volunteers waiting to support the officers in emergency situations.
However, Police Colonel Somnuk Junkate has had to move officers from his main station to serve at the new station and he would really like to have funding to hire more police officers for the new station and would even consider becoming the Chief of the new station and give up his current post.
"Nongprue residents and tourists living in the are can ensure that security will now be even better," confirmed Police Colonel Somnuk.
The Banglamung Police Station Nongprue branch is located in the Nongprue Municipality. Call 038 249820 for any enquires or emergencies.
