Jar-Choey
JAR-CHOEY (Thai: จ่าเฉย, "Traffic police figure”) is a traffic police figure in Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand. It is commonly seen at main junctions’ roads.
Jar-choey was introduced in 2007 A.D. by Wipawadee Hospital. It was designed to help ease the work of Thai traffic police officers. Then Wipawadee Hospital had collaborated with other private sectors to produce Jar-choey (Ratsiri, 2009). The name ‘Jar-choey’ came from two Thai words ‘jar’ which means ‘sergeant’ and ‘choey’ which means ‘stay still’. The main purpose of Jar-choey was to lessen the number of traffic offenders and reduce the number of accidents. They are strategically placed at areas that have a high number of offenders and accidents, so it can ease the work of Thai police or it can be called ‘police helper’. ‘Jar-choey’ was produced in two typical postures of traffic police offer: smiling saluting posture and standing upright with a serious face. The heights are half body and full body (180 cm). [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
