webfact Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Gen Prawit asks NACC for one more week to clarify about his wristwatches By Thai PBS Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon has asked for another week to clarify to the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) about the sources of his expensive wristwatches and a diamond ring. NACC secretary-general Worawit Sukboon said Tuesday (Feb 13) that Gen Prawit was due to submit his written explanation to the NACC on Feb 8, but the latter claimed he had some business to attend abroad and asked for another week to submit the clarification, or by Feb 15. He said it was not certain for the time being whether more witnesses would be questioned as the anti-graft agency needs to consider written clarification from the deputy prime minister first.

Popular Post cornishcarlos Posted February 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2018 I thought he had a month to submit an explanation, about 3 months ago !! Or was that when he thought the public only knew about 1 watch ? He really should grow a conscience and resign, unfortunately we are way past that point due to the "face" thing :) 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rkidlad Posted February 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2018 Well, I hope someone out there has some more photos up their sleeve. Saying that, does it really matter? He is clearly above the law and reproach. Two months later and he still hasn’t clearly explained something he said was “easy to explain”. Proving his innocence should have always been his first priority. If really innocent, prove it and then resign for being so crass. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs time to get a bullet proof explanation together. Thievery has been tolerated by officialdom in Thailand for a very long time. To none Thais, it is difficult to stomach.

Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted February 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 14, 2018 The truth needs no deadline extension after deadline extension, Mr. Prawit. You could have answered within one week after the issue came to light. Why this foot-dragging? It makes you look guilty as sin. Which you are. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he is still trying to find those mysterious friends that he said lent him the watches in the first place. You see he clearly has no real friends here!
