Word on the soi: he was having a drink in the early hours with a lady at or near Bar 4. Her boyfriend took exception. Backed with 3 buddies the fight began and continued at Nana Hotel. It was 4 on 1. One man is dead and Bar 4 is closed for a week.
You've missed out the bit about him refusing to pay his bill which is apparently what started it. It ended when he received some assistance to fall from the 5th floor. Those who killed him are known in the area to the locals.
After 48 hours, there is still no official statement from the investigating authorities?
Not really a big news story, not sure what you were expecting. Not even sure this would classify as news in many places ... guy acting strangely and aggressively in one of the seediest areas of a country getting into a scuffle and dying, likely by offing himself. Beyond finding out who had earlier got into a scuffle with, not sure what more there is to report beyond autopsy results and toxicological reports which will take weeks if not months to be available and again not sure this rates as that newsworthy to be followed up on unless they find some mystery poison in him and turned out he was some kind of spy or foreign agent.

The machetes are not determined to peel potatoes.Maybe they should generally prohibit in cities to wear this kind of machetes.Is not the first time that people are being slaughtered so.It amazes me what kind of weapons are sold openly on the fairgrounds.

According to another source, Prayuth: Knowing everyone behind attacks.The coup leader said he had the names of the supporters and financiers
of the violent attacks in 2010 and in 2013 and this year, and he urged them to report to authorities.
“You would be shocked and surprised if I revealed the names”.If so, why the public did not know the names?Why should they be named before they are arrested and charged ?
Then let's hope that soon arrests are reported and the backers can not flee abroad.The masterminds are warned now.-

“If we believe their purpose in coming to Thailand is not what they say it is, then we will order them to leave and they will be blacklisted.
They will not be able to return to Thailand, ever.”
If we do not believe?
For what reason is there then the blacklisting?
That sounds like arbitrariness, according to there daily mood.-

I think the residents are concerned about their environment and the consequences of the mining industry.
And they have every right to be concerned. I am not disagreeing with that.
I am disagreeing with your statement that there is a conflict of interest. The minister no longer holds shares in Akkara mining. He is not "privately involved" with them.
Conflict of interest with a question mark, please!
So you're not trying to say there was a conflict of interest because he used to own shares?
That he was an influential person in finance and in the mining industry until some days before, is undisputed.Now villagers demand the NACC to examine the independence.That there are exist relationships of the past is undisputed without naivety.Conflict of interest? (That is a question)Who knows what is previously expired there in the villages from mining.
So i like that the NACC check this.Sounds cool.

Or you think the Villagers do a PR stunt?
The villagers don't like the fact that the Industry Minister knows about industry.

He sold his shares recently, as it is in the article.
Is it good if the NACC checking this.
An assets and wealth check should be obligatory upon every high official and politician.
He most likely sold his shares when he became minister. As such he would no longer be "privately involved" with the company. Therefore, (back to your original comment) there would be no "conflict of interest".
"used to be"

Perhaps the Minister of Industry gives the mining rights exclusive to companies at which he is privately involved?
Which companies is he currently "privately involved"?
Minister Chakkramont used to be a shareholder in the Akkara mining company or Akkara Resources gold-mining company.
If you are Interested:
"used to be", so in other words, "not currently".

The petitioners claimed by Industry Minister Chakkramont used to be a shareholder in the Akkara mining company or Akkara Resources gold-mining company and a board director of CIMB bank which is key financier of the mining business.
Conflict of interest?
Taking advantage in his official function?
personal enrichment?
bribery?
"used to be" ... where is the conflict of interest?

Mr Suvichak was earlier sacked by the military junta and put in inactive post at the Prime Minister’s Office.Now it's official.
Corrupt officials sit in the Prime Ministers Office.
That is a joke right?-

Meanwhile, Mr. Panthep said the NACC is "urgently" working to wrap up its investigation into former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s alleged failure to prevent widespread corruption in her government’s rice pledging scheme.
Hope they get then also a 35% discount afterwards for the rice scheme.
That would then be around 300 billion baht.
300.000.000.000-

Mr. Yongyut has also quoted General Prayuth that the ministers must be able to perform their duties up to their best ability or else they could be dismissed from their posts. ......
and the stolen and misappropriated funds are withdrawn (seized) , plus interest, plus money penalty and plus prison
for thieves of public funds (corruption).
An end to impunity for criminals! -
Transparency has to be 'before the fact' not 'after the fact'. All government bids should be published in the major Thai newspapers with the bids open to inspection by the public. When the bid is finally awarded, the award should be noted to the public as well -- along with the reason why the bid was accepted. Transparency is not a complicated process.
It is simply impossible to do that. There is not enough room in any three newspapers to do that. But there's lots of information online. These croo.... people at the Department of Public Works actually have quite an informative website including massive information on this microphone scam. It's not lack of information that's at the root of the problem but oversight and accountability. The assigned people are in on it, and the public is too la... doesn't have the time.
If you want to start making them accountable, here's your starting point:
The one live link at the bottom goes to the multi-page documents on this particular microphone case. The tabs reveal thousands of other procurements big and small.
.....Transparency has to be 'before the fact' not 'after the fact'.
.... oversight and accountability.
And you need honest officials in the control functions.
Where are these people?
Why the honest officials do not come in key leadership positions?
As long as the corrupt officials are allowed to keep their stolen money and they have not to fear strong penalties,
then the honest officials are the stupid fools.
Or really all corrupt here?
Hope not.

As long as in the schools / universities are no constructive and critical discussions, the learning progress will always remain small.
To make an error is a great shame and often a loss of face.So better, as a student you make nothing or you buy the solution papers for the tests.The concept to learn from mistakes is entirely foreign to Thai.Edison has had over 1000 failed attempts before he finally invented the light bulb.What remains, is to learn only with misunderstood memorization. -

The Country lost 500 million....Isn't that about the same amount of money Thaksin borrowed off the Russians, for that construction project in Dubai that went belly up and the investors lost everything.
The Russians would still want to be payed back plus interest of course.
Just throwing it out there what do you think?
Wish they had lost only 500 millions
The Country lost 500 - 700 billions with the rice scam.
The 500 Million was the heist from Nimon, Ruangwan and Somkid co-owned a Kasikornbank savings account No 001-0-03796-9. Bank records show money being transferred to this account in the morning and being withdrawn in the afternoon.
The state has failed to get even one baht back until today.
The criminals are allowed to keep their booty, even if they are caught.

It's a pity.
The rules for the award of public contracts must be reformed urgently.

Earlier the department had cracked two major forgery gangs but they were engaged only in issuing fake tax invoices to companies doing business in the country in the construction and production industries. Loss from the fake invoices was about two billion baht, he said, and added that government officials were suspected to have connection with these gangs.
So the state (the public) got the 2.000.000.000 Baht back?
Yes or no?
That is the interesting part here!
Unfortunately, there is in the article not a single sentence were this money is now!
Same with the rice scheme money.
Same with the super cars.
Same with the flood managment money.
etc.
Never a word about the remaining of the stolen money.-
