File a complaint at Nong Trud police station in Trang and get a free 'massage to relieve stress', from one officer at the front desk.

In fact, Pol Lt Pakronkrit Thongsuk told the Bangkok Post that he is looking to make a career in massage when he retires.

Pakronkrit regularly meets the public who need to file complaints for various problems.

He launched the scheme he calls "Massage to Relieve Distress" to make visits to the station more tolerable.

Upon arriving at Nong Trud station, complainants are offered a glass of cold water.

When he sees a visitor looking particularly stressed, Pakronkrit, who is also a trained Thai massage practitioner, asks for permission to massage their neck and head.

He rose through the ranks in his 13 years at Nong Trud station, becoming a police lieutenant. After a few years, he made enough to pay for his own Thai traditional massage training.

Performing the massage on police station visitors allowed him to gain experience before his upcoming career change.
