Luxury watch findings to be revealed tomorrow as Watcharapol recuses self from meeting

By The Nation

 

The president of Thailand’s anti-graft body, Pol General Watcharapol Prasarnrajkit, said on Monday that he would not attend a Tuesday meeting held by the National Anti-Corruption Commission to table its findings over the watch scandal involving Deputy PM General Prawit Wongsuwan.
 

“I will withdraw myself from attending the meeting,” said Watcharapol.

 

He also declined to confirm whether the meeting would resolve to invite Prawit to meet the NACC in person for further clarification over the issue. Nor would Watcharapol clarify whether the anti-graft body would agree to set up an official investigation panel into the case.

 

The meeting, scheduled for tomorrow, is expected to consider the findings expected to be filed by a panel appointed by the NACC to investigate the case.

 

Prawit was spotted wearing a luxury watch and a diamond ring during a Cabinet group photo session last December. Netizens have subsequently compiled and widely shared images of him wearing up to 25 luxury watches on various occasions.

 

The Deputy PM had apparently failed to declare them to the NACC as required by law.

 

Responding to public pressure, the anti-graft body launched a probe into the issue.

 

NACC secretary-general Worawit Sookbooon said the panel would table its findings, along with proposals for further actions in the case.

 

However, he declined to reveal further details, saying comments would come from the NACC tomorrow.

So, still waiting for HumptyDumpty to approve the findings, then.

Nobody wants to touch this one, it's a foregone conclusion then.

 

All paperwork is in order now back to work everyone.

Can't wait to see the pictures of a new batch of fabulous(ly expensive) watches worn on the wrong (...right) wrist, when the 'findings' are the ones many of us, alas, expect, it couldn't take long...

Would seem so wouldn't it....

 

The complete contempt they have for their own laws is staggering, bet they struggle to lie straight in their own beds as they all seem to be bent to the very core....

Quite the president;

Who was it that said "corruption never pays" ?

Conclusion:- They had never been to Thailand!

Spineless wimp

Ah, The Watchfinder General.

Not only is he a General from the army, but I bet Vincent Price would give him a hard time.

Seriously time for someone to wake up....!!

No explanation to the 'no show'...just I am not coming....From the president of Thailand's anti-graft body...

The corruption and nepotism have got even worse under military rule....!!

A Thai friend 'in the know' told me, in the provinces the local governments did more or less as they pleased, because no checks and balances are in place.

I await the outcome with baited-breath (actually I don't, it's a foregone conclusion of course).

Certainly plenty of smoke. Can't see the mirrors for the smoke

There will be more delays announced - more committees to investigate - more final details to be collected - more clarifications to be sought - and on and on it will go - into Infinity.

 

OK, Thais: this is the society you have allowed to develop. You have made your bed (and are still making it by allowing this gang to ride roughshod over you all) - now lie on it and enjoy your self-invoked humiliation and contempt from the Betters that you LOVE to worship and grovel to!

I'm a bit surprised he's actually bowing out. But I believe the reason is, the good general is a former lackey to Little P, and thus has at least the appearance of a conflict of interest in this particular case, if not an actual conflict of interest.

Bated breath actually, but in this case it smells a bit fishy.

Don't incriminate the 'Thais', they are an invention of 'master-dictator' Phibun Songkram, to create an illusion of national cohesion to build up his total power, with bravery and courage as lollies to give to a diversified population kept at a level of knowledge below freezing point by the nobility cast before, already being replaced then by the new elite of chinese merchants which is, more than ever, dominating this country today. What is a Thai, outside of an individual holding an ID-card issued by a country called Thailand? Hush, don't say it too loud, as most of the flock has swallowed the bait, the hook and the line... Sad, really sad story.

No doubt the fix is already in.....



  Yeah baby!

hah baht

Classic. Only in Thailand; where the National Anti-Corruption Commission is...........corrupt    

I can hardly ferking wait!!!
