webfact Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Gen Prawit: Don’t worry I can clarify By Thai PBS Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon has assured that he could clarify where and how he obtained the luxury wristwatch and diamond ring from. His assurance came after he was asked by reporters yesterday (Dec 11) to confirm widespread report on the social media that quoted him as saying that he was ready to clarify the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) that the diamond ring belonged to his mother and the watch was borrowed from a businessman friend. He denied as untrue the report in the social media, saying that he had no idea where such report came from. However, he assured reporters that ,”don’t worry, I’m ready to clarify these in details.” Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/gen-prawit-dont-worry-can-clarify/ -- © Copyright Thai PBS 2017-12-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Loh Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Just for the record, the late veteran politician Maj-General Sanan Kachornprasart was ousted from his interior minister post and banned from politics for five years for making a false declaration of assets. But as the man say, don't worry nothing will happen to him as the NACC chief is a close friend. I believe him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have explained from day one. Give the people a rough overview of how you came into these possession of these items and then can prove it within your 30 days. Just as a side note - there is not a single good reason for a 'politician' who took over the country because he wanted to stop corruption to be wearing a million+ baht watch. Even if it's fake, you just don't do it. I would say that he must understand people are watching and judging all the time, but I don't think he does.

Are they close friends or relatives of yours, concerned for your well-being? Or, maybe they are your fans now that you have become an Internet idol?

AboutThaim Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Wasn't there a rumour that he met up with Yingluck in London a while back?

And that quote is from Ronald Reagan who said that the nine most frightening thing in the English language are "I'm from the government and I'm here to help." Still appropriate even when translated from Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Deerhunter Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 (edited) Is this what is meant when they say "We are keeping a good watch" on corruption? Just asking................... It does really also have "a good ring" to it, doesn't it?. Edited December 12, 2017 by The Deerhunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 The watch and the ring were lucky draw winnings on board of that B747 flight to Honolulu, chartered from Thai Airways by the Defense Ministry with a catering bill of THB 600‘000 for 60+ passengers.
