Just Weird Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 3 hours ago, Sir Dude said: An astonishingly stupid and arrogant comment from the ex police chief about how trivial his previous position was to him. He needs to put the spade down and stop digging. Maybe the authorities can check you are all paid up on the income tax front then with all that money you made on the "stock market." The fact that he needed a huge loan suggests that at the time perhaps he was making a huge loss, not "all that money". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that what he was trying to convey was that most of his income came from share dealings in the stock market that was his own private matter. His police salary was just a minor thing in comparison. ..." To make the sort of money already on record for this character (hundreds of millions), seems to me: - Hundreds of millions profit in share trading needs a very large amount of time in analysis of movements and trends and continuously finding a lot of other info on stocks. And quite some time in the actual transactions and the admin. involved. What sort of profit is "already on record" for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think it was a loan? He was police chief at the time and the owner of the massage parlour who 'lent' him 300 million baht was running an illegal business and employing underage girls as prostitutes. Don't you think it might be more than coincidence that whilst Somyot was police chief, Victoria's Secret had no problems from the police? Now I wonder why that was. Is there evidence of him paying back the loan ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not be a good look for the Australian company if asked why this guy was on the board and what services or expertise he provided. Do you mean Akara Resources the Thai gold mining company?

Some people have the ability to do that. If he eventually became a substantial trader his sudden need for a very large loan could well be the result of a bad trading decision ending up with a margin call. It could be a happy coincidence. Meanwhile, in the real world............ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure as head of the Thai police force he would have realised the moral responsibility of his position and paid back this large sum of 300 million baht to the massage/prostitution parlour owner, employer of underage girls, as soon as possible.

Well I thought he had already admitted to taking rather huge 'loans' from a brothel owner , a brothel that broke quite a few laws that I presume he was expected to uphold.

It seems they treat it as a windfall like some countries treat wins on the lottery or from gambling, which is appropriate for the SET. It is a great way to launder money. This is why Thaksin did not pay any tax on the sale of AIS to the Singaporeans. We know how that has panned out. Now if our policeman had inside information that would be a very different proposition. (Maybe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klauskunkel Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I'm having fun with this now: Quote The former police chief embroiled in the Victoria's Secret soapy massage scandal has tried to play down comments he made on TV that his high ranking position "was just a sideline". I understand completely what he is trying to say. Just like in the massage parlor there is the fish bowl and there is the sideline. Somyot's main income came from his talent in the fish bowl, while his sideline performance just wasn't good enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraynz Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 he should definitely be thoroughly investigated, also by the tax department---i seriously doubt anybody can legitimately accumulate that sort of wealth on a police salary. police corruption needs to be eliminated...
