That is actually not laid down, specifically, in any legal system, it's just an old adage. Five years for corruption and misconduct from a senior government official fit's the crime pretty well.

Try not paying your way, try doing things against the rules based order, try driving a car about and a policeman stops you, try having money in a bank account and having to explain it, try owning property and not paying taxes and fees etc... So you think that you should have the freedom to break the rules of society, break traffic laws, not explain how you accumulate unaccountable funds in your bank and not pay taxes without consequences, all of which contribute to a civilised society?

The 21 separate charges were for "corruption and misconduct by senior government officials", not "using a company car privately". And they only got 5 years for each charge.

I think that he was also announcing his importance and expecting the authorities, who don't read this tripe, to do something favourable for him!

Webfact.

How do you reckon that?

Probably not, for a new account. The banks' attitudes will be to ask why a UK resident would need to use a Thai phone number.

Joking...? Why? Severely lacking in humour.

More nonsense. Literally.

There are differences between Taiwan, Hong Kongers and those from China. You can pick up on it if you live here long enough. So you guessed, i.e. you made it up.

Yes, you did. Specifically, then, who did I let in?

Why?

He got five years, proportional for each corruption and misconduct charge.

Or ”was a car even stolen ”? Or "corruption and misconduct"...the actual charges they all faced

So much love being displayed for three corrupt senior Thai government officials who've been jailed...quite an about-turn for AN posters! What's happening, whatever next?

For driving a car to golf? 5555 "Driving a car to golf" wasn't the charge. 21 charges of corruption and misconduct were.

Not for 21 counts of murder!

Here's a heads-up...there's a link in the OP and it is very relevant.

You get the point. A fine is all needed, maybe 7 days in jail. Very strange sentence if true. You don't get the point. The charges he faced carried a 5-year sentence.

Where was it reported that she "was looking for romance on Facebook"? What can one say?

No, she was not. Try reading the OP properly.

none I know of So?

Where did you get the idea that all Thais are "supposed to be poor"?

May I ask, did you bother to read the full OP?

Once again, the reading and comprehension abilities of so many posters is clearly displayed.
