Being elected doesn't give someone the right to then disregard the countries fundamental laws, lie, cheat, steal, grant themselves amnesty, allow illegal interference in government etc etc etc. Hypocrisy at the highest. A good example being Mr. Hun Sen across the border. He's been elected and is all the above. Now it looks like the people have had enough he dissolves and imprisons the opposition, gets closer to China and moves speedily away from real democracy. Unfortunately, in third world countries those elected have a habit of only respecting democracy if they win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceruhe Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I keep saying there should be an international competition for Comedians which Prayut/Thailand would win back to back. I propose to also add Mental Gymnastics to that list, though the competition here would be might stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would never try to hide or not declare anything, due to that this is one of his duties as a public servant. How low does people think, that a person would go to get as much as possible out of his time in power. This is outrageous! Stamp your feet and shred your nightie. Outrageous.. Such an overused word.

The 'Law' book is very thick and it took 'em a month to get to the 'watches borrowed from friends' page. Come to think of it, the law book readers are pretty thick as well.

Lemonltr Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 As nobody in their 'right mind' believes that Prawit does not own the watches how about looking in another direction. Surely these watches would be insured and surely proof of their existence would be demanded. Maybe some insurance company employees know something.

No need to hurry, lads.. Yes, too true. The fact that he was beaten unconscious as an army recruit needn't necessarily and 100% certainly mean that Prawit's a fool . . . it just increases the likelihood.

holy cow cm Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Playing with fire here, and I really hope the fire starts boiling the Thai citizen's blood. Even my 16 year old heard about the Big P's comments yesterday in the network at school. That is regarding the watches and the little P. This was part of our dinner table topic, and apparently part of his school's as well. It is a point that they the military have the people scared, but this can only go on for so long.

NanLaew Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 6 hours ago, Samui Bodoh said: If someone accepted a free limo with a driver from a person seeking influence, it would be a crime under any anti-corruption regime anywhere in the world. The watches were a thing of value to Prawit or else he would not have worn them (if they actually belong to another person). This is giving a gift to an official and it is corruption. Period. But "borrowing a watch" is not the same as "receiving a watch as a gift" and pretty much any court in "any anti-corruption regime anywhere in the world" would agree. I am surprised it took Prawit's legal beagle so long to state the bloody obvious IMHO. Your opinion may be swayed by the countless thousands of Thai ladies that 'borrow' money from their foreign partners to acquire land and houses here? If the simple but regular act of foreigners agreeing to be party to the Land Office's frankly perjurious requirement to sign a piece of paper saying that the money used to purchase the land was a gift, we really should not be pointing fingers at the locals.

wealthychef Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 The court has ruled that because of his high political standing, he has no obligations to avoid corruption or the appearance of corruption. He is too busy to keep ordinary ethical rules. Case dismissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) It is just a matter of time until the authorities recognize him as a saint. His intentions are always nothing but noble. LOL. The watches did not belong to me. Neither do the chateaus overseas. Nor does the 5 billion dollars. None of it is mine. I swear. Deny. Obfuscate. Lie. Fabricate an alternative reality. Blame the media. Does any of this sound familiar? And who lends a deputy PM a million dollar watch collection to wear? What is he, a supermodel? A movie star?

Dukeleto Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 A watch company somewhere in the world knows that this is all BS, but no prises for guessing that they will not say a thing! Wouldn't it be wonderful if a disgruntled employee of one of these companies could dig up a receipt and make it public! No doubt the powers that be would deem it as fake or inadmissible. You know...the usual. This only shows that the NACC is absolutely under the control of the Junta and its only purpose is to go after those deemed as opponents to them staying in power. Could you imagine how this would have gone had Kuhn Yingluk been of meagre means and owned wheelbarrow loads of extravagantly expensive watches which she said were borrowed! I rest my case your honour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he acquired them after entering the Cabinet he would not have to declare them until he left, Worawit said. Is this a nightmarish fantasy or an even worse reality?
