sounds rather strange as the Bangkok police's major use of motor
vehicles in Bangkok is motorcycles. Not diesel trucks.


Maybe they're going diesel motorcycles:

Here's a Royal Enfield 1-cyl Diesel motorcycle....on the road!

As Will Rogers said, "all I know is what I read in the newspapers" but
the King, who is highly revered, almost worshipped, has made several
widely reported speeches about Thailand becoming a self supporting
country, and this is an election year, it would make perfect sense for
a government body such as the Police to say that they were using a non
crude oil product and for a refinery to announce a non crude based
fuel. But as I said, there is no evidence of any new fuel stations
being built and little, if any talk about alternate fuels except for
gasohol.
